python - chart.render_to_file('python_repos.svg')AttributeError: 'NoneType' 对象没有属性 'decode'

Question

我正在通过这本书学习 python：“Python Crash Course: A Hands-On, Project-Based Introduction to Programming”。在“使用 API”一书的第 17 章中，我按照书中所说的做了，但是发生了错误。我不知道错误是什么意思。这是否意味着站点包有问题？如何解决？

import requests
import pygal
from pygal.style import LightColorizedStyle as LCS, LightenStyle as LS

# Make an API call, and store the response.
url = 'https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q=language:python&sort=stars'
r = requests.get(url)
print("Status code:", r.status_code)

# Store API response in a variable.
response_dict = r.json()
print("Total repositories:", response_dict['total_count'])

# Explore information about the repositories.
repo_dicts = response_dict['items']

names, plot_dicts = [], []
for repo_dict in repo_dicts:
    names.append(repo_dict['name'])

    plot_dict = {
        'value': repo_dict['stargazers_count'],
        'label': repo_dict['description'],
        }
    plot_dicts.append(plot_dict)

# Make visualization.
my_style = LS('#333366', base_style=LCS)

my_config = pygal.Config()
my_config.x_label_rotation = 45
my_config.show_legend = False
my_config.title_font_size = 24
my_config.label_font_size = 14
my_config.major_label_font_size = 18
my_config.truncate_label = 15
my_config.show_y_guides = False
my_config.width = 1000

chart = pygal.Bar(my_config, style=my_style)
chart.title = 'Most-Starred Python Projects on GitHub'
chart.x_labels = names

chart.add('', plot_dicts)
chart.render_to_file('python_repos.svg')

错误如下

标签： pythonpygal

该错误是由您在图表上设置的标签之一引起的None，它是Python 的特殊内置常量之一。当 pygal 来渲染图表时，它期望标签是一个字符串并调用该decode函数。对象上不存在此函数None，因此会引发错误。

查看 Github 存储库的名称和描述（您分别设置为 x 标签和数据标签），我们可以看到其中一个存储库的描述是None. 我不会说书中的代码有什么特别的错误，只是运气不好，目前最受关注的 Python 存储库之一没有描述。

None我们可以通过检查for 循环中的值来解决这个问题：

for repo_dict in repo_dicts:

    if repo_dict['name'] is None:
        names.append('')  # Empty string.
    else:
        names.append(repo_dict['name'])

    plot_dict = {'value': repo_dict['stargazers_count']}
    if repo_dict['description'] is not None:
        plot_dict['label'] = repo_dict['description']

    plot_dicts.append(plot_dict)

在第一部分中，我们添加了一个空字符串来代替任何None值（因为当你设置 x 标签时你需要一些东西）。

在第二部分中，我们仅使用值创建了 dict，然后仅当描述不是 None时才将描述添加为标签。
