Unable to add buyer w/o card URI about balanced-python HOT 5 CLOSED

It's not a buyer without a card URI though right?

Does just

balanced.Account(email_address=email_address).save() 

work? I don't believe you need to specify a URI.

@mjallday That works too. While I know a buyer isn't a buyer w/o a card, just I wanted to add a card to the account regardless, but create the account only if it's there.

I know you can simply do an except and check if the category_code = 'duplicate-email-address', but for those who want to have the user be added to their marketplace on registration w/o forcing them to add a card, it helps to know there's a method for it.

from balanced-python.

Sounds like something like:

 balanced.Marketplace.my_marketplace.create_account(...)

Is what you want?

Or given that you mentioned the duplicate email address is something more like

 balanced.Account.find_or_create(...) 

better?

from balanced-python.

create_account() would work, but I think find_or_create() would be more streamlined and would eliminate the necessity of checking for the specific exception.

Account is long deprecated.
