New submission from Ian Remmel <des...@ianwremmel.com>:
This started as a bug report for httpie https://github.com/jakubroztocil/httpie/issues/717#issuecomment-426125261 And became a bug report for requests https://github.com/requests/requests/issues/4813 > But turned out to be an issue with Python's netrc parser: > > > it appears that auth via netrc is broken if ~/.netrc includes entries that > are not exactly login/password tuples. For example, I have the following > entries for circle ci and heroku: > > ``` > machine api.heroku.com > login <redacted> > password <redacted> > method interactive > machine circleci.com > login <redacted> > ``` > > both of these entries prevent my entry for github.com from working with > httpie (but curl works just fine). I've used the following script to test python 2.7 and 3.7: ``` import netrc import os.path netrc.netrc(os.path.expanduser('~/.netrc')).authenticators('api.github.com') ``` Python 2: ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 4, in <module> netrc.netrc(os.path.expanduser('~/.netrc')).authenticators('api.github.com') File "/usr/local/Cellar/python@2/2.7.15_1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/netrc.py", line 35, in __init__ self._parse(file, fp, default_netrc) File "/usr/local/Cellar/python@2/2.7.15_1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/netrc.py", line 117, in _parse file, lexer.lineno) netrc.NetrcParseError: bad follower token 'method' (/Users/ian/.netrc, line 7) ```` Python 3: ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 4, in <module> netrc.netrc(os.path.expanduser('~/.netrc')).authenticators('api.github.com') File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/3.7.0/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/netrc.py", line 30, in __init__ self._parse(file, fp, default_netrc) File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/3.7.0/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/netrc.py", line 111, in _parse file, lexer.lineno) netrc.NetrcParseError: bad follower token 'method' (/Users/ian/.netrc, line 7) ``` ---------- messages: 327155 nosy: ianwremmel priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: netrc parding is overly strict versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34908> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
