How to print the content of the object? - janaki26794 - Jul-21-2019
I have a python file in which I have written the following data
@dataclass
class Email:
resource_uri : str
address : str
person : str
time : str
origin : str
primary : bool
active : bool
class DataTracker:
"""
A class for interacting with the IETF DataTracker.
"""
def __init__(self):
self.session = requests.Session()
self.base_url = "https://datatracker.ietf.org"
def __del__(self):
self.session.close()
def email(self, email: str):
"""
Lookup information about an email address in the datatracker.
Parameters:
email : the email address to lookup
Returns:
An Email object
"""
response = self.session.get(self.base_url + "/api/v1/person/email/" + email + "/", verify=True)
if response.status_code == 200:
return Pavlova().from_mapping(response.json(), Email)
else:
return NoneHow do I print the details of an object of email type and a particular attribute say "address" of the email??I have written the code snippet but I am not sure how to print the result as it brought upon errors
import datatracker
##Creating an object of Datatracker type
datatracker_object=datatracker.DataTracker()
## calling the email function and storing in object
email_object=datatracker_object.email('https://datatracker.ietf.org/api/v1/person/email/[email protected]/')
print(email_object['address'])Kindly help.Thanks

print(email_object.address)Should work if
Pavlova().from_mapping(response.json(), Email)is returning a instance of Email.

I did the same,but it returns an error like this: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'address'..It in short says that the value is null, but it is not

if response.status_code == 200:
return Pavlova().from_mapping(response.json(), Email)
else:
return NoneWhen the if statement is not True it will return None

Hi @janaki26794,
Here is how I worked around it. Save the result of the mapping in a variable then call the attribute on the variable like shown below.
response = self.session.get(self.base_url + section + area_id + "/", verify=True)
if response.status_code == 200:
[b] result = Pavlova().from_mapping(response.json(), Group)[/b]
[b]return result.name[/b]
else:
return NoneSeems we are working on the same project 
message me if you want to. Goodluck!
