ERROR: post() got an unexpected keyword argument 'proxies'

I'm using youtube-search-python to get the URLs of an array with song names but this error keeps popping up:

post() got an unexpected keyword argument 'proxies'

I'm new to Python and I've been looking around but I couldn't find nothing useful for fixing this error (at least that I understood).

This is the code that is throwing the error:

 elif "open.spotify.com" == url_procesed.hostname:

        try: 
            playlist = Playlist(client_id, client_secret)
            playlist_tracks = playlist.get_playlist_tracks(url)
            link_list = playlist.search_for_songs(playlist_tracks)
            print(link_list)

Here's the error stack trace:

The error must be in playlist.search_for_songs because it doesn't print anything. Here is the code for all of it:

I believe you are using httpx version 0.28.0 or above. In this version, the post method really doesn't have the proxies parameter declared. Compare this:

>>> httpx.__version__
'0.27.2'
>>> 'proxies' in inspect.getargs(httpx.post.__code__).args
True

versus

>>> httpx.__version__
'0.28.1'
>>> 'proxies' in inspect.getargs(httpx.post.__code__).args
False

You might want to consider downgrading httpx to version 0.27 if possible, like so:

pip install --force-reinstall 'httpx<0.28'

I think a reasonable approach would be to try it in a fresh, separate environment first.
