Unable to perform example query about billboard-charts HOT 12 CLOSED

Hey, thanks for posting this! I can't reproduce this on my machine. Can I get some info on your OS and Python version, and also how you're running this? (Are you in IPython?)

from billboard-charts.

Sure thing:

OS: OSX 10.11.13
Python 3.4.4

The error occurs in both IPython and the REPL.

After some further inspection, it seems like this runs Python 2 under the hood – would a virtual environment help?

from billboard-charts.

Don't think so. It should work on either Python 2 or 3.

Can you access this page in your web browser?

Not sure if you meant to link to

https://github.com/guoguo12/billboard-charts/issues/www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100#/charts/hot-100

or just

www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100#/charts/hot-100

If the former, no. If the latter, yes.

Oops... typo.

Hmm... I'm stumped. Try on a different computer? I'll let you know if I think of anything.

On second thought, try installing via pip instead of just cloning the repo. Maybe you have an unsupported version of BeautifulSoup or Requests.

Any luck @dannyFig? :)

Closing due to lack of response. Feel free to reopen if this happens again!

Also having this issue @guoguo12...

I'm getting the same error trace as above, with the error message "TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable". Any suggestions?

Looks to me as though line 178 is causing the issue, likely because beautiful soup is finding nothing with the given selector:
selector = 'div.chart-row__' + rowName + ' .chart-row__value'

@jackbeckwith are you installing billboard.py from pip? I'm not able to reproduce the error on either python 2.7.12 or 3.5.2 (minimum-required requests/bs4 on python2 and latest on python3). If you've installed via pip, maybe try upgrading bs4 and requests.

from billboard-charts.

Thanks @jameswenzel - issue is solved. For me, updating all packages worked.

python 2.7.10 -> python 2.7.12
bs4 4.3.2 -> bs4 4.4.1
requests 2.9.1 -> 2.10.0

from billboard-charts.

Interesting! I'll bump the version numbers of the dependencies up. Thanks, @jameswenzel and @jackbeckwith!
