Problem with urllib3 and Twitter API

Save elbows on duty

I am using this font for Twitter API

Https://github.com/geduldig/TwitterAPI

When running the error examples:

File 'stream_tweets.py', line 1, in from TwitterAPI import TwitterAPI File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/TwitterAPI/TwitterAPI.py", line 10, in from requests.packages.urllib3.exceptions import ReadTimeoutError, ProtocolError ImportError: cannot import name ReadTimeoutError

Has anyone already used the api and knows how to solve?

The problem is that your requests package is in an old version. You need to make a upgrade. These packages use urllib3. On the command line, run:

pip install requests --upgrade

Or, to upgrade everything the Twitter API uses, run:

pip install TwitterAPI --upgrade

Since You Are Using Python 2.7, you may need to install pip: install pip.
