Problem with request_cache

[Irazall]

I get the following error message:

AttributeError: module 'requests_cache' has no attribute 'core'

I assume that some dependencies are deprecated. Thanks anyway for implementing this tool!

This should be the solution

Exactly. Just remove 'core' and import CachedSession directly from requests_cache

[JWCook]

You can blame me for that one, sorry! The intent for this was to raise a DeprecationWarning instead of causing an error. This would have worked if imported as from requests_cache.core import CachedSession; using requests_cache.core.CachedSession wasn't something I thought of.

If you run into any more problems, feel free to create an issue on the requests-cache repo.

Hi, I'm having the same problem, but I'm not sure how to solve it.

Hi @rsmassey

As stated in the last commit 37f74d9 the maintainer will not continue his work so I've created a fork here, the library can be installed from PyPi with updated docs and more.

Feel free to install updated library instead (pip install bgg-api), that should fix your issue. Contributions are welcome ❤️ thanks!
