[QUESTION] Socks proxy parameter breaks the program #257

Open turbcool opened 1 month ago

What is your question?

No messages are downloaded if I specify a socks proxy socks5://.... I managed to resolve it by installing pysocks lib, but it was not clear at first and i had to dive a bit into source code to find the error.

I suggest adding a hint into documentation to install pysocks if SOCKS proxy is needed. Thank you for great lib!

Did you used debug mode for logs?

from chat_downloader.debugging import set_log_level
set_log_level('debug')

or --logging=debug flag of CLI.
