Common errors

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gherila.scrape' ↓

cause The scrape submodule was removed in v1.1.0.

fix

Install gherila >=1.1.0 and use from gherila import fetch.

error AttributeError: module 'gherila' has no attribute 'fetch_sync' ↓

cause The synchronous fetch_sync function was removed in v1.1.0.

fix

Use async fetch function: await gherila.fetch(...).

error TypeError: fetch() missing 1 required positional argument: 'url' ↓

cause The url parameter must be provided as a positional argument, not keyword.

fix

Call await fetch('https://example.com') or await fetch(url='https://example.com').

Warnings

deprecated The synchronous `fetch_sync` function is removed in v1.1.0+. Use async `fetch` only. ↓

fix Convert code to async/await pattern.

gotcha `fetch` does not support custom headers by default; pass headers as a dict to `Session`. ↓

fix Initialize `Session(headers={'User-Agent': '...'})` and use `session.fetch()`.

breaking The `gherila.scrape` module was removed in v1.1.0. Use `gherila.fetch` instead. ↓

fix Replace `from gherila.scrape import ...` with `from gherila import fetch`.
