what i'm missing ?

[7omate]

You're missing openssl and/or its python bindings

[7omate]

opkg install python-light

or build your own python with openssl

[Dhouha-ma]

i tried both of your suggestion and it doesn't work

why it can be built with requests 2.8.0 ?

[7omate]

because we use a custom writer for Uploads, if you don't need uploads it will work with newer versions

[7omate]

did you try running pip install -r requirements.txt python main.py ?

[Dhouha-ma]

i installed all the requirements and all works well except python-requests

[7omate]

Which version of openssl do you have ? What do you get with python -c "import ssl" ?

[Dhouha-ma]

Which version of openssl do you have ?

openssl-1.0.0d

What do you get with python -c "import ssl"

i get nothing

[7omate]

Getting nothing means there is an OpenSSL library linked to your python, which is a good sign.

How do you compile requests ? pip install request==2.5.1 ?

[Dhouha-ma]

I'm building on OpenWrt, i get source from https://pypi.python.org/simple/requests/ , i create package of python-requests 2.5.1 and run make package/python-requests/compile V=99

[7omate]

Did you try with pip ?

opkg update
opkg install distribute
opkg install python-openssl
opkg install python-bzip2
easy_install pip

from http://samjbrenner.com/notes/using-pip-to-install-python-packages-on-the-arduino-yun/ or https://blog.nyanpasu.me/install-python-and-pip-on-openwrt/

[Dhouha-ma]

When i try them i get

No command 'opkg' found, did you mean: Command 'dpkg' from package 'dpkg' (main) opkg: command not found

anyway i create package for all other requirements and they works well, except this problem of ssl module

[7omate]

No I mean opkg the package manager for OpenWrt as far as I remember https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg
