When following the docs
https://www.python-httpx.org/advanced/authentication/

The BasicAuthentication example gives the error below

auth = httpx.BasicAuthentication(username=settings.user, password=settings.password)
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: module 'httpx' has no attribute 'BasicAuthentication'

code is

import httpx

...
auth = httpx.BasicAuthentication(username=settings.user, password=settings.password)

Code that should be changed in the docs is below

auth = httpx.BasicAuth(username=settings.user, password=settings.password)
