Hi all,
I have an issue why trying to parse data fetched from wikipedia api.
This is the piece of code that I am using:
api_url =
'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=recentchanges&rclimit=5000&rctype=edit&rcnamespace=0&rcdir=newer&format=json&rcstart=20160504022715>'
api_params =
'action=query&list=recentchanges&rclimit=5000&rctype=edit&rcnamespace=0&rcdir=newer&format=json&rcstart=20160504022715<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=recentchanges&rclimit=5000&rctype=edit&rcnamespace=0&rcdir=newer&format=json&rcstart=20160504022715>'
f = urllib2.Request(api_url, api_params)
print ('requesting ' + api_url + '?' + api_params)
source = urllib2.urlopen(f, None, 300).read()
source = json.loads(source)
json.loads(source) raised the following exception " Expecting , delimiter: line
1 column 817105 (char 817104"
I tried to use source.encode('utf-8') and some other encodings but they all
didn't help.
Do we have any workaround for that issue ? Thanks :)
