Sorry I didn't see these comments until today. I updated the snippet to work with Python3 + requests + requests[socks]. I'm still using port 9150 which works out of the box on the Mac TorBrowser. Please use this responsibly.

How to open .onion domain?

I have same error like in dzNET post when try to open .onion sites. =(
How to fix it?

@dznet, @itJunky, @siddiquim-vmware add a .to so your hiddenwiki host value becomes zqktlwi4fecvo6ri.onion.to

Now, time for the red pill:

The request module is not looking up the .onion domain via the socks proxy but via standard dns. Since there is no root onion domain provided by icann or other NIC operators your lookup goes off to the root dns servers then dies.

The solution is to use the socks5h:// protocol in order to enable remote DNS resolving via the socks proxy in case the local DNS resolving process fails. Use The Source Luke.

$ sudo apt-get install tor
$ sudo netstat -tlnp
and search local addres of TOR

For what it’s worth... check out ProxyRequests.... may not be as untraceable as tor but definitely works: https://github.com/rootVIII/proxy_requests

Thank you very much good man!

Try port 9150 with tor browser open if that didn't work

1- Tor Should be Installed
sudo apt install tor
2- Tor Service must be opened
sudo service tor start
3- install requirements
pip install requests
pip install requests[socks]
4 - change the port in the tool from 9150 to 9050
5 - RUN :)

its works, thank a lot...

This worked for me 👍
