Afternoon I am looking for help with this excerpt of code. The issue is that it completes with no error and with other code in I can see it connects to postgres however it is not picking up or parsing file, also no error though so I am not sure of the exact problem.
I use prints to try and see what it is picking up from terminal however they also print nothing. How can i find the error to troubleshoot. This is my terminal and directory structure. sayth@localhost pyXML]$ ls -a . .. data .git racemeeting.py README.md sayth@localhost data]$ ls -a . .. 20160528RAND0.xml I execute the file as such [sayth@localhost pyXML]$ python3 racemeeting.py data/*.xml [sayth@localhost pyXML]$ As you can see no output or failure. from pyquery import PyQuery as pq import psycopg2 import argparse import os import glob def GetArgs(): '''parse XML from command line''' parser = argparse.ArgumentParser() parser.add_argument("path", nargs="+") parser.add_argument('-e', '--extension', default='', help='File extension to filter by.') args = parser.parse_args() files = set() name_pattern = "*" + args.extension for path in args.path: files.update(glob.glob(os.path.join(path, name_pattern))) return files # Now walk the tree and insert data. for filename in sorted(GetArgs()): for meeting in pq(filename=filename): print(filename) print(meeting) meetdata = [meeting.get(attr) for attr in meetattrs] cur.execute("insert into meetings valueme in GetArgs():s (" + ",".join(["%s"]*len(meetattrs)) + ")", meetdata) for race in meeting.findall("race"): race.set("meeting_id", meeting.get("id")) racedata = [race.get(attr) for attr in raceattrs] cur.execute("insert into races values (" + ",".join(["%s"]*len(raceattrs)) + ")", racedata) for horse in race.findall("nomination"): horse.set("race_id", race.get("id")) horsedata = [horse.get(attr) for attr in horseattrs] cur.execute("insert into horses values (" + ",".join(["%s"]*len(horseattrs)) + ")", horsedata) Thanks in advance Sayth -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
