[MRcode2102]

Hi Mr
I want to run the WaWebSession.py but while I run this script, show me this error
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/majid/Desktop/whatsapp/WaWebSessionHandler/WaWebSession.py", line 25, in <module> class SessionHandler: File "/home/majid/Desktop/whatsapp/WaWebSessionHandler/WaWebSession.py", line 30, in SessionHandler __browser_profile_list: list[str] TypeError: 'type' object is not subscriptable

I run this script with python 3 and also I downloaded and pasted the chromedriver in PATH
but doesn't work for me
can you help me please Mr?

Hello,
of course I will try to help you with this issue. At the moment I am not able to reproduce the issue, so this will be though to investigate.
This error message should tell me that I am interacting with a type object in a bad way (I know this is not an accurate explanation but I don't know how to word it better). But the issue seems to be about type hints and that leads me to a few questions:

What python version are you using? You can type python --version and paste the result here. I just looked at the docs for type
hints and I think that any version below 3.5 might not be working as expected. So if that's the case you might want to update to a newer python version like "3.8" or "3.9".
One more question to sanity check. Are you using the script that is currently in master? Have you cloned my repo or did you download a release version (because these are pretty old and don't really work that well)?

[TSRBerry]

That's odd.
Why doesn't it like that I describe the type of my variables? That works perfectly fine for me.

I will look into this again in a few days. I am quite busy at the moment, so I am unable to work on it right away.

Nevermind! I had some time today and found out why I wasn't able to reproduce the issue.

If you take a look at this issue you will see a very similar problem to this case. So I was testing my script on my raspberry pi today and got the same exception because I am using python 3.8, but on my pc I am using 3.9 which allows these type annotations.

So if you want to get it working quickly you should try to run it again with python 3.9.
I will work on making it compatible with python 3.8 and push these changes when I am ready.

Sorry to keep you waiting for so long (for such a simple issue).

Could you try and test the script from "python38-compatibility" branch?

I am pretty sure that fixes the issue, but can't test it right now, so I would like to get your feedback on that, before I merge and close this.

[TSRBerry]

I had time to test this today and didn't have any issues.
Since I got no other feedback, I will merge this now and close this issue.

If anything is not working correctly on python 3.8 and you still experience some issues, feel free to reopen this issue.
