First time D use :)

After dub init, I used the example from https://code.dlang.org/packages/requests and ran "dub add requests"

When I run dub, I get

requests.uri.UriException@/home/cartland/.dub/packages/requests-1.0.9/requests/source/requests/uri.d(35): Can't parse uri ''

What was your main() code?

The error makes me think you might have just tried like get("") or something

import std.stdio;
import requests;

void main() {
    auto content = getContent("https://httpbin.org/get", queryParams("name", "any name", "age", 42));
    writeln(content);
}

huh, idk, it works when I try that exact code in a fresh project

dub init
dub add requests
# edit source/app.d to have your contents
dub run

and it spat out the content...

are you behind a proxy or something maybe?

Thanks for checking. I'm not behind a proxy. The firewall allows browsing to the url. Also tried older versions of requests with the same result. The same (similar) call works using std.net.curl.

I'm on Tumbleweed. I'll try it on MacOS. And also try a different network a bit later.

If you still stuck with this problem, you can post new issue on github project page, I'll try to solve it.

Same on MacOS. Using dmd, ldc, or gdc. I'll raise an issue on https://github.com/ikod/dlang-requests.

Even this does it.

import requests;
void main() {
}

Figured it out. See github issue. I had http_proxy env var set to blank. Worked when I unset it.

PS. As a long time C (and C++, Java/script, C#) dev, I'm loving D. Very impressive so far.
