Hello there ! First of all, thank you for this wrapper, it's been very usefull for me and my friends. Then I made a bot that scan some page basing on the search tag you give him and then play a sound when a new article is posted on it, here is the code for the first request I send:

And everything was fine until today, but now, when I to use it, I have this error :

Could you please tell me if something is wrong or how to fix it ? thank you

Hi, I come to bring my personal experience.

I just noticed that I can run the following program without error:

from pyVinted import Vinted

def get_p():
    vinted = Vinted()

    items = vinted.items.search("https://www.vinted.fr/vetement?order=newest_first&currency=EUR",10,1)
    for item in items:
        vinted_id = item.id
        title = item.title
        photo = item.photo
        brand = item.brand_title
        price = item.price
        url = item.url
        print(url,title, price, brand)
get_p()

Only with python3.6 When I run it with python3.9+ I get the same error as you.

Here are the outputs I have:

Any update on this?

[reusteur73]

Yes, I'm pretty sure it's related to the python version. I tested under several environments (Windows and Debian), on both I noticed that python3.6.6 worked. Every time I run the script with higher python (I tested with python3.9 and python3.10) (on both environments) it didn't work, and returned me the error quoted above. I think it is imperative to use python3.6.6 or lower (not tested) for the script to work. I don't have a solution on my side to make it work on higher versions of python. Have a great day.

I guys ! Sorry for not replying I was on vacation. I will look into this in the following week. I think the error is due to python request "saving" some infos which is probably making vinted blocking us.

I have just tested with python3.7.6 and request==2.19.1 and it worked fine !

Works OK with python 3.9.2 and requests==2.19.1. Failed with newer requests (2.23.1 maybe).

[jantongo]

Updated to python 3.11.1 and still worked.

Then upgraded requests to 2.28.1. Still worked. Then upgraded charset-normalizer to 2.1.1. Still worked. Then upgraded idna to 3.4. Still worked. Then upgraded urllib3 to 1.26.13. And crashed!

The most recent working version for urllib3 is 1.24.3.

pip install --force-reinstall -v "urllib3 ==1.21.1" worked like a charm
