Python 3.1 simplejson install

[dirknbr]

I am trying to install simplejson on Python 3.1 on Windows. When I do
'python setup.py install' I get 'except DisutilsPlatformError, x:
SyntaxError' with a dash under the comma.

Any ideas?

I am trying to run

Re: Email in 2.6.4

[dirknbr]

I have now easy_installled email and I still get errors.

It doesn't error on 'import email' but does on call to MimeText.

import email
msg = MIMEText('test')

NameError: name 'MIMEText' is not defined

What should I do?

deduping

[dirknbr]

Hi

I have 2 files (done and outf), and I want to chose unique elements
from the 2nd column in outf which are not in done. This code works but
is not efficient, can you think of a quicker way? The a=1 is just a
redundant task obviously, I put it this way around because I think
'in' is quicker than 'not in' - is that true?

done_={}
for line in done:
done_[line.strip()]=0

print len(done_)

universe={}
for line in outf:
if line.split(',')[1].strip() in universe.keys():
a=1
else:
if line.split(',')[1].strip() in done_.keys():
a=1
else:
universe[line.split(',')[1].strip()]=0

compile as exe with arguments

[dirknbr]

I want to compile as an exe using py2exe but the function should take
arguments. How would I do this? Currently my exe runs (no errors) but
nothing happens.

Aha that might be it, I had a look at 
http://docs.python.org/library/optparse.html
How do you integrate (options, args) = parser.parse_args()
with our function?

Ok I had a look at this now http://wiki.python.org/moin/OptParse and
got it.

optparse TypeError

[dirknbr]

I get an int object is not callable TypeError when I execute this. But
I don't understand why.

parser = optparse.OptionParser("usage: %lines [options] arg1")
parser.add_option("-l", "--lines", dest="lines",
  default=10, type="int",
  help="number of lines")
parser.add_option("-t", "--topbottom", dest="topbottom",
  default="T", type="str",
  help="T(op) or B(ottom)")

(options, args) = parser.parse_args()
if len(args) != 1:
parser.error("incorrect number of arguments")
lines=options.lines
tb=options.topbottom

Dirk
lines(args[0],topbottom=tb,maxi=lines)

Unicode error

[dirknbr]

I am having some problems with unicode from json.

This is the error I get

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\x93' in
position 61: ordinal not in range(128)

I have kind of developped this but obviously it's not nice, any better
ideas?

try:
text=texts[i]
text=text.encode('latin-1')
text=text.encode('utf-8')
except:
text=' '

Re: Unicode error

[dirknbr]

To give a bit of context. I am using twython which is a wrapper for
the JSON API

 
search=twitter.searchTwitter(s,rpp=100,page=str(it),result_type='recent',lang='en')
for u in search[u'results']:
ids.append(u[u'id'])
texts.append(u[u'text'])

This is where texts comes from.

When I then want to write texts to a file I get the unicode error.

Urrlib2 IncompleteRead error

[dirknbr]

I am running urllib2.request and get this response when I do the read.
Any ideas what causes this?

return response.read()
  File "C:\Python26\lib\socket.py", line 329, in read
data = self._sock.recv(rbufsize)
  File "C:\Python26\lib\httplib.py", line 518, in read
return self._read_chunked(amt)
  File "C:\Python26\lib\httplib.py", line 561, in _read_chunked
raise IncompleteRead(''.join(value))
IncompleteRead: IncompleteRead(3235 bytes read)
