Passing variable to a module method-CodePudding

Hello everyone I am trying to get the URL if pages fetching using Wikipedia module but I am getting error how can I fix this

import wikipedia

results = wikipedia.search("KFC")
for x in results:
    print(x)
    getlink = wikipedia.page(x).url
    print(getlink) 

Error I am getting  wikipedia.exceptions.PageError: Page id "k2c" does not match any pages. Try another id!

Tried with f strings as f'wikipedia.page({x).url' but didn't get the expected OP

Double Down (sandwich)
wikipedia.page(Double Down (sandwich)).url
Operations of KFC
wikipedia.page(Operations of KFC).url

Expected OP

print(wikipedia.page("History of KFC").url) 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_KFC

CodePudding user response：

As the quickstart says, an error of this kind is thrown if the function page does not find the page. In this case is a bit strange because it is wikipedia suggestion. Anyway, surround at least that line in a try-except block to handle the error:


import wikipedia

results = wikipedia.search("KFC")

for x in results:
    print(x)

    try:
        getlink = wikipedia.page(x).url
    except wikipedia.exceptions.PageError as e:
        print(f'{x} not found.')

    print(getlink)

Also, you could try replacing search method by suggest method
