No class `NoAuthClient` in module `carto.auth`

Open regan-sarwas opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Documentation suggests there is a class NoAuthClient in carto.auth module. However this yields an ImportError

ImportError: cannot import name 'NoAuthClient' from 'carto.auth'

From read-the-docs and the Readme file.

from carto.auth import NoAuthClient

I discovered the class is in pyrestcli.auth but not imported in auth.py. Until the code or documentation is corrected, the following works

from pyrestcli.auth import NoAuthClient

However it issues the following warning when using the send() method on the SQLClient in carto.sql:

UserWarning: You are using methods other than get with no authentication!!!

Maybe it is best to just use the requests module when doing read only queries on a public database?
