Scrapy: setting authorization header for proxy in middleware

I am trying to send scrapy requests through a proxy that requires an authorization. I updated the process_request method from the default middleware (middleware.py).

I tried several ways to achieve it but everytime I get the following error messsage : ERROR: Gave up retrying <GET https://api.ipify.org/> (failed 3 times): Could not open CONNECT tunnel with proxy proxy_ip:proxy_port [{'status': 407, 'reason': b'Proxy Authentication Required'}]

Here is what I tried :

def process_request(self, request, spider):           
    request.meta['proxy'] = 'http://proxy_ip:proxy_port'
    proxy_user_pass = "username:password"
    encoded_user_pass = base64.encodestring(proxy_user_pass.encode()).decode()
    request.headers['Proxy-Authorization'] = 'Basic ' + encoded_user_pass
    return None

I try other ways of encoding the header, such as :

From : https://www.zyte.com/blog/scrapy-proxy/

request.headers['Proxy-Authorization'] = basic_auth_header("username", "password")

From: https://github.com/aivarsk/scrapy-proxies/blob/master/scrapy_proxies/randomproxy.py

encoded_user_pass = base64.b64encode(proxy_user_pass.encode()).decode()

From : Scrapy cookies not working when sending Proxy-Authorization header

request.headers['Proxy-Authorization'] = 'Basic ' + encoded_user_pass.strip()

The username / password have been tested and work properly If I whitelist my current ip (no authorization required) I can send a request using only request.meta['proxy'] = 'http://proxy_ip:proxy_port'. Though this is not a solution as I do not control the ip from which the request is sent.

Any idea what goes wrong with my request?

The number of nodes and edges I calculated manually and by a method provided by networkx library dont match

I am trying to analyse a graph using networkx library in Python. I have implemented a function that returns the nodes and edges of that graph. After that I counted the number of nodes and edges by implementing the len() function for nodes and edges, which gave me 17 for both nodes and edges. However, when I used the method graph.number_of_nodes() of networkx library it gave me 53. My code: import pandas as pd import networkx as nx import matplotlib.pyplot as plt header_list = ["a","b","w"] E =pd.read_csv("aves-barn-swallow-contact-network.edges",sep=" ",header= None,names=header_list) # print(E.head()) # prints first few rows of the csv file G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(E,"a","b",["w"]) nx.draw(G) plt.show() class GraphAnalyse: #finding nodes and edges def nodeEdge(self,Graph): nodes = Graph.nodes() edges = Graph.edges() ...
