0.4.13 seems to break Python 3.11 compatibility

[claell]

          note that quickjs package is not compatible with Python 3.11, so you may face an issue while trying to upgrade poe-api 0.4.13 :D

See comment above. Creating as separate issue to keep track of the problem.

I put a note in the README about this. You need the python-dev package installed if you're on Linux.

Hopefully, in the future, Python 3.11 compatibility can be restored, though?

I am on Windows, BTW.

So how did you install quickjs 🤔

[claell]

I didn't install it, I used an older Python version for now.

[asce0]

Oh, my bad, I thought you did install it 😅

@ading2210 You can use js2py instead of quickjs. js2py works fine for Python 3.11

import js2py

def extract_formkey(self, html):
    script_regex = r'<script>(.+?)</script>'
    script_text = "window = {};"
    script_text += "".join(re.findall(script_regex, html))

    function_regex = r'(window\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{17})=function'
    function_text = re.search(function_regex, script_text).group(1)
    script_text += f"{function_text}();"

    formkey = js2py.eval_js(script_text)
    return formkey

js2py is not sandboxed, and it's possible for a script to call Python functions.

I just found that someone has compiled quickjs for python3.11, and it seems worked for windows
