Description of issue

I have installed Python 3.12.3 using Homebrew in MacOs. I am trying now to install the module requests, using brew install python-requests, and I got the message: Warning: python-requests has been deprecated because it does not meet homebrew/core's requirements for Python library formulae!

I am confused if the module is not available from Homebrew? when I run import requests in Phyton env, I got the error that the module is not found.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

You should probably install it with pip, not with Homebrew since it's going away soon

[chucker]

But, FWIW, pip says to use Homebrew…

❯ pip3 uninstall requests
error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try brew install
    xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.

(What I ended up doing was pip3 install --break-system-packages requests, but that's discouraged…)

[SMillerDev]

Pip says you can try to use Homebrew. Sometimes it'll work, sometimes it won't. Using virtual environments will always work.
