I have written a very small python client to access confluence restful api. I am using https protocol to connect with the confluence. I am running into Connection reset by peer
error.
Here is the full stack trace.
/Users/rakesh.kumar/.virtualenvs/wpToConfluence.py/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/util/ssl_.py:318: SNIMissingWarning: An HTTPS request has been made, but the SNI (Subject Name Indication) extension to TLS is not available on this platform. This may cause the server to present an incorrect TLS certificate, which can cause validation failures. You can upgrade to a newer version of Python to solve this. For more information, see https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html#snimissingwarning.

Here is my client code:
import requests

auth = open('/tmp/confluence', 'r').readline().strip()
username = 'rakesh.kumar'
response = requests.get("https://<HOST-NAME>/rest/api/content/",
auth=(username, auth),
headers={'content-type': 'application/json'})
print response
if __name__ == "__main__":

I am running this script in a virtual environment and following packages are installed on that environment:
(wpToConfluence.py)➜ Python pip list
You are using pip version 6.1.1, however version 8.1.2 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.
appnope (0.1.0)
backports.shutil-get-terminal-size (1.0.0)
decorator (4.0.10)
ipdb (0.10.1)
ipython (5.0.0)
ipython-genutils (0.1.0)
pathlib2 (2.1.0)
pexpect (4.2.0)
pickleshare (0.7.3)
pip (6.1.1)
prompt-toolkit (1.0.5)
ptyprocess (0.5.1)
Pygments (2.1.3)
requests (2.10.0)
setuptools (25.1.6)
simplegeneric (0.8.1)
six (1.10.0)
traitlets (4.2.2)
urllib3 (1.16)
wcwidth (0.1.7)
It does complain about the python version number but I am not sure how to update my Mac/Virtual environment python.
I have tried to curl command and Postman both of them work fine for the given parameters.
While installing requests
library it skips few of optional security packages ('pyOpenSSL', 'ndg-httpsclient', and 'pyasn1') which are required for the SSL/Https connection.
You can fix it by either running this command
pip install "requests[security]"
or
pip install pyopenssl ndg-httpsclient pyasn1
