Getting "permission denied" error, while user has permissions on the file

[max-l]

I am able to do a "curl" on a file socket:

    curl --unix-socket /home/carolg/datahub68.sock http:

but I get a Permission denied when using requests_unixsocket

import requests_unixsocket
session = requests_unixsocket.Session()

url = "http+unix://home/carolg/datahub68.sock"
r = session.get(url, timeout=10)

I am calling the curl command and the python code with the same unix user

Here is the error:

The current version requires ugly URL encoding of the socket path. Try:

url = "http+unix://%2Fhome%2Fcarolg%2Fdatahub68.sock"

This sucks, but I'm hoping to make things nicer in #41.
