ImportError: cannot import name 'urljoin'

Hi,

I am facing this issue first time. When i'm trying to run a simple script, it's throwing this error while module initialization.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/kiteorders/kite-orders.py", line 1, in
from kiteconnect import KiteConnect
File "/kiteorders/kiteconnect/__init__.py", line 110, in
from kiteconnect.connect import KiteConnect
File "/kiteorders/kiteconnect/connect.py", line 11, in
from six.moves.urllib.parse import urljoin
ImportError: cannot import name 'urljoin'

Module initialization is simple as can be seen in stack trace:
from kiteconnect import KiteConnect

What could be the issue?

Can you try updating six package? Use pip install --upgrade six

If still facing the issue, do let us know your kiteconnect version(pip show kiteconnect) and your python version(python --version)?

pip upgrade didn't work as i had already upgraded the whole kiteconnect via same command.

$ python3 -m pip install --upgrade six
Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable

it seems to be a problem related to the directory the script is in.

Because i checked other scripts in other directories are working fine. So i copied the same script in another folder, and it's working fine.

I 'll check and post again if i find something else related to this.
