Generate a Google Translate API token through the Socks5 proxy using gtoken.py.

[hongyi-zhao]

I want to use gtoken.py through a socks5 proxy. Based on the comment here and the example usage in gtoken.py, I tried with the following method, but failed:

$ pyenv shell datasci
$ pip install pysocks ipython matplotlib

In [1]: import socks

In [2]: import socket

In [3]: socks.set_default_proxy(socks.SOCKS5, "127.0.0.1", 18889)
   ...: socket.socket = socks.socksocket

In [4]: from googletrans.gtoken import TokenAcquirer

In [5]: acquirer=TokenAcquirer()

In [6]: text = 'test'

In [7]: tk= acquirer.do(text)

    195         tk = self.acquire(text)
    196         return tk

     61         # this will be the same as python code after stripping out a reserved word 'var'
---> 62         code = self.RE_TKK.search(r.text).group(1).replace('var ', '')
     63         # unescape special ascii characters such like a \x3d(=)
     64         code = code.encode().decode('unicode-escape')

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

Any hints for this problem will be highly appreciated.
