Yt search not working / output error

[galgot]

Hi,
When ever i try a search, I get this error msg :

Error fetching data. Possible network issue.
'NoneType' object is not iterable

This happens with same version 2.12.0 on multiple environments (MacOS and Linux)I have yewtube installed on. For example this --version output is on a Rpi 3b running Debian 10 :

yewtube version : 2.12.0
yt_dlp version : 2023.11.16
Python version : 3.7.3 (default, Mar 23 2024, 16:12:05)

dbus : None
glib : False

And this is on a MacBook Pro running MacOSX 10.11.6, Yewtube installed with Macports :

yewtube version : 2.12.0
yt_dlp version : 2024.11.04
Python version : 3.12.7 (main, Oct 5 2024, 00:33:30) [Clang 8.0.0 (clang-800.0.42.1)]

Mplayer is used on all environments.

Ok, this is strange...
After installing Yewtube, first thing I would do is search for "chopin", it usually gave me a long list of Chopin sonatas stuff.
And I kept that habit, each time after installing Yewtube or upgrading, I would search "chopin"... without thinking of searching something else 🙄... until yesterday.

/chopin

indeed gives :

Error fetching data. Possible network issue.
'NoneType' object is not iterable

But most other searches works fine :D
Tried others searches that would fail, yt doesn't like Bach either :

/bach
Error fetching data. Possible network issue.
'NoneType' object is not iterable

But

/chopin sonata

or

/bach sonata

works fine :)

Anyway, mostly working fine. Sorry for the bother, think this can be closed.

Same issue but my error reads:
Error fetching data. Possible network issue.
post() got an unexpected keyword argument 'proxies'

Same here. Fedora 41, installed using pipx. Can't use search at all.

Since 0.28 version of httpx, proxy is deprecated. This should be the reason that caused the proxy error.

Same here. OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Installed using pipx.

Samesies.

Same issue. I uninstalled the regular yewtube and installed the git. same problem.

Update: it works with the #1303. I am using ArchLinux and installed it via AUR. I had to install pipx and then install yewtube through it to make it work.

yewtube uses youtube-search-python and youtube-search-python is the package using httpx.

Thank you very much, that worked!
