How to detect an undefined method?
by Manfred Lotz April 2, 2022

April 2, 2022

Let's say I have a Python app and have used an undefined method somewhere. Let us further assume I have not detected it thru my tests. Is there a way to detect it before deploying the app? pylint doesn't notice it. Minimal example: #!/usr/bin/env python3 import logging from logging import Logger from random import randrange def main(): """ Below logger.err gives 'Logger' object has no attribute 'err' """ logger = logging.getLogger('sample') logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) handler = logging.StreamHandler() logger.addHandler(handler) num = randrange(0,1000) if num == 0: logger.err("got zero") else: logger.info(f'got a positive integer: {num}') if __name__ == "__main__": main() -- Manfred

I've used davmail to connect to it. I vaguely remember that there was one day a sudden change, webmail was disabled and davmail then connected using EWS. Maybe the OWA protocol also evolved, I now see it on the roadmap. Good that you found a solution now with owl! I'm having a similar issue at my current position, we're using Lotus Notes (yes! The package from the 90s, it's outright horrible). There is only one thing available, the iNotes exporter, which allows to read the mail using thunderbird, sending is not implemented. Always keeping fingers crossed that the IT department does not update the server protocol. Sometimes they do minor changes like internal redirection URL changes, which costs me half a day to fix then. Christian

It expands to "Outlook Web App", period, (and more recently is called "Outlook for the Web"). That would explain why there is no documentation of an "API"... I get the impression that any so-called API programs have had to reverse engineer (maybe using things like WireShark) the HTTP communication. -- Wulfraed Dennis Lee Bieber AF6VN wlfraed(a)ix.netcom.com http://wlfraed.microdiversity.freeddns.org/

asyncio+tkinter
by Skip Montanaro April 1, 2022

Given that both asyncio & tkinter are modules in the standard lib and both have event loops, I would have expected to find some "best practice" solution to mixing the two. I've not used asyncio, but might find it useful with the pynput module in the context of a Tk app. I see a few solutions out in the wild, but this seems like something which might best be addressed in either the asyncio or tkinter documentation, or better yet, implemented in one or the other.
