Dependancy fail: gaecontrib not in __compat.py

File "project\venv\Lib\site-packages\pyrebase\pyrebase.py", line 20, in

ImportError: cannot import name 'gaecontrib' from 'requests_toolbelt._compat' (project\venv\Lib\site-packages\requests_toolbelt_compat.py)

requests_toolbelt\adapters\appengine.py requires the object "gaecontrib" from "__compat.py".
But "gaecontrib" is missing in "__compat.py"

Hello,

We just released Requests Toolbelt without Google App Engine support: https://github.com/requests/toolbelt/blob/1.0.0/HISTORY.rst#100----2023-05-01. Pyrebase depends on that support. That said, if you use a recent version of pip and do pip install pyrebase, you should get old versions of Requests and Requests Toolbelt that work: https://github.com/thisbejim/Pyrebase/blob/7a652e6bd9d148da5ff6dbe7548c6d5d0dfa1109/setup.py

As a temporary solution, you can pin urllib3 (urllib3<2.0) and Requests Toolbelt (requests_toolbelt<1.0.0). Why is this temporary? urllib3 1.26 will continue getting security updates for now, but Requests Toolbelt 0.9.0 won't. This is something that Pyrebase should do, as well as vendoring the Google App Engine code it relies on.

That said, Pyrebase is now unmaintained, see thisbejim/Pyrebase#435 for alternatives. The more promising alternative is the official Python SDK: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-admin-python

In any case, we can't help more than that, so I'll close this issue. Thanks!
