I've been using an external Python package rapportive.py locally and it works great. Now I'm trying to use it on OpenShift. I was able to install the package successfully via requirements.txt & I can import it, but whenever I try to use it, I get a JSONDecodeError:
Python 2.7.5 (default, Aug 16 2013, 05:57:04)

I'm not sure if this an OpenShift problem, or if I'm missing something really simple. But either way, I could some help. Thanks!

response = requests.get(status_url).json()
This portion of the stack trace indicates the line in rapportive.py that is failing, which then suggests that requests.get() is not returning a valid response that can be converted in a JSON object. Is this the exact same code that you tested locally, with the same test user?
Try running the following code on OpenShift and see if any errors are thrown:
import requests
STATUS_URL = 'https://rapportive.com/login_status?user_email=test@test.com'
response = requests.get(STATUS_URL)
If that code works without error, then it should be possible to then run response.json without error. This should at least point you in the right direction as what the problem is.
