I'd like to add a +1 to this request, as I ran into exactly this issue when trying to package http-prompt for Fedora, where we have prompt_toolkit version 3.
Done with 69439599cac3ac243729ebe6be20b3964bb3a4dd.
Sorry if I'm misreading something, but I think that commit bumps to prompt-toolkit v2 but this issue is about prompt-toolkit v3?
Yeah, +1 – I can't use http-prompt on my laptop anymore, because the system version of prompt_toolkit is v3, and http-prompt doesn't work with that one:
ImportError: cannot import name 'AbortAction' from 'prompt_toolkit' (/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/prompt_toolkit/__init__.py)
In the meantime, it would be nice to have an easy way to start http-prompt via Python, like python -m http_prompt
or python -m http_prompt.cli
, because that makes running http-prompt from a virtualenv much easier. If you want to do this, find your cli.py
file and add two lines at the bottom:
if __name__ == "__main__":
cli()
bump
I didn't install in the system level, rather through pyenv, and I usually install ipython as part of adding a python version, but ipython and http-prompt can't be in the same venv or pyenv because of this dependency clash
So updating to v3 would really help
But since http-prompt does not involve python coding, I opted for using it as a tool and not another python package, so installing with pipx did the trick:
pip uninstall -y http-prompt
pip install -U pipx
pipx install http-prompt

Hi!
I just learned about this little gem today and ended up trying to write a Gentoo Ebuild for http-prompt, but one thing missing from the official Gentoo tree is a prompt_toolkit < 2.0.0... Is there a chance to support prompt_toolkit 2 or 3, or are there tons of work to migrate? (Hmm... The "Why all the breaking changes?" header on their migration page isn't a good sign I guess... ;) )
AFAIK, Gentoo is trying to move on from Python <3.6 (or <2.7), so overlaying a prompt_toolkit version < 2.0.0 isn't really a good option...
But since I'm not at all a Python coder, I am a bit wary of even trying myself to be honest.
