TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'encoding'

[tgrrr]

html5lib.version is 1.0.1 produces the error

read_html('http://foo.com')

TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'encoding'

Solution is to downgrade:pip3 install -U html5lib=="0.9999999"

It's a problem on SO here: and here

It looks like it was referenced as another issue but was closed

Is it possible to fix this in version 1.0.1?

I don't see any evidence this is a problem with html5lib. Seems like this is a problem with whatever you're using that uses html5lib. There's no traceback in this issue, so it's hard to tell. The issues referenced are all issues with other software.

There aren't any specifics in this issues, so I can't be very helpful. Generally, upgrade the things you're using and make sure they either support recent versions of html5lib or are pinned to the versions they do support. Hope that helps!

Closing this out because there's nothing the html5lib project should do here.
