unexpected keyword argument 'raise_on_status'

Question

I installed quandl using pip. I imported it and tried it:

import quandl
mydata = quandl.get("FRED/GDP")
print(df.head())

This resulted in the error below. Any suggestions how to solve it?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      1 import quandl
      2 #df = quandl.get("SSE/SVHG")
----> 3 mydata = quandl.get("FRED/GDP")
      4 #mydata = quandl.get("DATABASE_CODE2/DATASET_CODE2")
      5 print(df.head())
......

     76         return retries

The error appeared during instantiating of Retry and said Retry is a class from urllib3.

There is raise_on_status in urllib3 in the repository. Perhaps you have an older version of urllib3 and need to upgrade it.

Thanks! The following made it work: pip3 install urllib3 --upgrade --user – Johan hvn Nov 19 '18 at 16:10

cd ~/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/quandl/ and Open connection.py. Go to line 74 and remove the argument raise_on_status Worked for me!!
