If I roleplay my character as I intended him, he would be incompatible with a whole bunch of characters too…

You can be incompatible with the two of them at the same time?

They seem pretty different :)

I'm wondering if the response to return "catalog-number":"", rather than just dropping the "catalog-number" property from the response when I make the following call http://www.musicbrainz.org/ws/2/release?&quer…

I thought leaving out the undef bits was normal in JSON? But I'm no JSON expert by any means :)

I'm guessing I shouldn't hold my breath to have this fixed soon?
2013-05-22 14202, 2013
warp
santiissopasse: it should be an easy fix, but there's lots of other stuff to fix as well :)
2013-05-22 14253, 2013
santiissopasse
warp: maybe you could tell me a way to work around then instead. I'm taking properties from the JSON object and putting them into a python dictionary. However, its requiring me to do a lot of checking if a key exists or not beforehand, bc otherwise I get a key error (bc the key is missing). Especially for something like "catalog-number" where first I have to see if "label-info" key exists and then next see if
2013-05-22 14254, 2013
santiissopasse
"catalog-number" key exists inside of "label-info", any clue if there's an easier way?
2013-05-22 14225, 2013
warp
that is exactly the reason why we want to have those keys always be there, and why this is a bug.
2013-05-22 14207, 2013
nikki
we have python stuff for the webservice, maybe that'd be better
2013-05-22 14225, 2013
reosarevok is wondering if gnu_andrew or someone will propose an area-work "Eurovision song for" relationship :)
santiissopasse: I would add a little fixup function which adds the keys after getting them from the server but before you use the data in the rest of the application.
2013-05-22 14248, 2013
warp
leave a comment with it referencing the bug in our ticket system, and then you can simply remove the fixup function once we fix it on our end.
2013-05-22 14212, 2013
santiissopasse
warp: I think the fix-up function is a good idea,I'll probably go with that, thanks
2013-05-22 14238, 2013
santiissopasse
nikki: can you elaborate on the python stuff in the web server? What do you mean by that?
warp, nikki, ok, I wasn't sure if it was outdated or not. https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Developer_Resources here it says that python-musicbrainz2 is outdated and to check that one, but doesn't make it clear whether its up to date or not
2013-05-22 14237, 2013
santiissopasse
anyways, I'll check it out and see if its easier than fixing the JSON before I process it

Nr.

also that damn thread. I swear all it's actually done is make people go "it doesn't matter if it's wrong, you're not supposed to vote it down because it's better than nothing!"

from what I read of the comments they were saying it's for a different release
