Unable to instantiate Configuration

[kshitijrajsharma]

Hi here ! I am facing some issues while instantiating configuration , I was using hdx-python-api 2.1.5 before

HDX_URL_PREFIX = Configuration.create(
    hdx_site=os.getenv('HDX_SITE', 'demo'),
    hdx_key=os.getenv('HDX_API_KEY'),
    user_agent="my_user_agent_name"
)

Now I am trying to upgrade it to latest version of this library while doing so I am. getting error like this

TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'allowed_methods'

from 176 line of hdx>utilities >session.py> get_session

    retries = Retry(
        total=5,
        backoff_factor=0.4,
        status_forcelist=status_forcelist,
        allowed_methods=allowed_methods,
        raise_on_redirect=True,
        raise_on_status=True,
    )

when I disable this code block and avoid passing allowed_methods like this ,

     retries = Retry(
        total=5,
        backoff_factor=0.4,
        status_forcelist=status_forcelist,
        # allowed_methods=allowed_methods,
        raise_on_redirect=True,
        raise_on_status=True,
    )

works fine for me but looking for better suggestion if there are any . Feel free to suggest me different way / navigate me to docs where I can find about it .

I think your version of urllib3 is old. At some point, method_whitelist was changed to allowed_methods. I am guessing that your version of urllib3 still uses method_whitelist

https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/blob/main/CHANGES.rst#1260-2020-11-10

Can you upgrade your urllib3? Please let me know if that works.

@mcarans Thanks , Upgrading urllib3 and requests Works !
