crash on "blank notifications"

[nydel]

tootstream crashes when encountering what i have referred to as "blank notifications" ... here is the traceback:

(having called 'notes' from the REPL)

note: 70376
@(user-removed) favorited your status:
♺:0 ♥:1 id:23 vis:🌎 via ◆ Tootdon ◆ 2018-01-23 02:06:41 (19 hours ago)
@(user-removed) you make good points and are clearly thoughtful and think critically. and my further thoughts are - what you say suggests a problem/solution which is better than my simple whinging about progress not being made fast enough. moving from feedlot chicken-nugget tv dinner ft. ambient petroleum byproduct
toward a more harmonious farming is more concrete. but is it more realistic? without leaving omnivorousness behind, can we supply the demand in a more ethical way, or is it too high?

the very next note that would be displayed is the "blank notification"

Would you check this with version 0.3.2 of Tootstream? The streaming API changed for Mastodon.py and that may solve the issue.

Thanks!

new ve & new pip installation -- after calling notes (a few notes are displayed then...)

[craigmaloney]

So it looks like 'created_at' isn''t getting set for that notification. Hurm. That's strange.

Would it be possible to run the following:

python -m pdb `which tootstream` , type "c" to continue, type note and then type p note['status'] to see what is getting returned?

0977330 adds a generic exception handling routine for crashes like this. It's not the best solution but it should prevent it from crashing. I'll still give this a peek for future versions.

[magicalraccoon]

Are we still having errors with this? I haven't seen anything on my end.
