[Tutor] Using 'requests' + 'with statement' in Python 3.4.1

[Juan Christian]

This part of my code isn't working:

def check_backpacktf(steamID64):
with requests.get(''.join([BACKPACKTF, steamID64])) as response:
status = {'profile': ''.join([BACKPACKTF, steamID64]),'backpack_value':
'Private or invalid', 'steamrep_scammer': False}

with response.json()['response']['players'][steamID64] as api:
status['backpack_value'] = api['backpack_value'][GAME_ID]
status['steamrep_scammer'] = bool(api['steamrep_scammer'])

return status

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\[...]\shark.py", line 98, in <module>
    main(sys.argv[1])
  File "C:\[...]\shark.py", line 93, in main
    fetch_forum()
  File "C:\[...]\shark.py", line 79, in fetch_forum
    fetch_user(user_url)
  File "C:\[...]\shark.py", line 42, in fetch_user
    backpacktf = check_backpacktf(steamID64)
  File "C:\[...]\shark.py", line 25, in check_backpacktf
    with requests.get(''.join([BACKPACKTF, steamID64])) as response:
AttributeError: __exit__


I'm trying to use the 'with statement' to reduce the SLOC and make the code
prettier. Using 'try-expect-finally' wouldn't be good, as I have more 3 or
4 functions like this one that call different sites. What's the problem?
Can't I use requests that way?
