Script that request data from twitch API crashes without errors | Python 3.6 over Ubuntu

[TheKill_996]

I got a script that request data from twitch API that should check if a streamer is in live or he’s not.
The script where less substantial at its origin, but then error comes up and as you can see there are a lot of issue that i try to catch like for example connection errors.

def request_data(id):
    #HTTP REQUEST
    link      = 'https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/' + id
    accept    = 'application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json'
    client_id = '##################'
    r1 = r2 = r3 = data = None

    print('join request_data')
    print('join request_data first try')

    try:
        r1 = requests.get(link, headers={'Client-ID':client_id, 'Accept': accept})
    except Exception as error:
            print('(1)Error: '+ str(error))
            return data

    time.sleep(1) #sec
    if r1.status_code == 200:
        print('entro in request_data r1.status_code == 200')
        try:
            r2 = r1.text
        except:
            print('(2)Error: '+ str(error))
            return data
        if 'stream' in r2:
            print('join request_data "stream" in r2')
            try:
                r3 = r1.json()['stream']
            except Exception as error:
                print('(3)Error: '+ str(error))
                return data
            print('join in request_data second try')
            if r3 != None:
                print('join in request_data r3 != None')
                try:
                    data = r3['broadcast_platform']     
                except Exception as error:
                    print('(4)Error: '+ str(error))
    print('end of request_data')
    return data

The code works fine, when someone goes live a get the notification, but randomly (as it seems to me) the script stop working and when I try to stop it using Ctrl + c the script won’t stop and i have to use Ctrl + z to stop it.

When I open the file where the output is writted the last line is always different…

“join request_data” writted by print(‘join request_data’) row 65
“join request_data second try” writted by print(‘join request_data second try’) row 89

As you can see there are a lot of try except one for each statement(or instruction idk how to say it)
and none of them seems to catch errors, cause I cannot find them searchin into the output file.

I’m not sure what you have going on in your script, but hopefully this helps. Both V5 and New API examples.

import requests

chanid = "23161357" # LIRIK's channel ID
userlogin = "joshog"

client_id = "################################"

def request_datav5(id):
    headers = {"Client-ID": client_id, "Accept": "application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json"}
    url = "https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/" + chanid
    r = requests.get(url, headers=headers).json()
    return r
    # If a bad channel ID response will be:
    # {'error': 'Internal Server Error', 'status': 500, 'message': ''}

    # If streamer is offline response will be:
    # {'stream': None}

print("\r\nAPI V5 \r\n")
print(request_datav5(chanid))

def request_dataNewAPI(userlogin):
    headers = {"Client-ID": client_id, "Accept": "application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json"}
    url = "https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?user_login=" + userlogin
    r = requests.get(url, headers=headers).json()
    return r
    # If a bad user login name or offline response will be:
    # {'data': [], 'pagination': {}}

print ("\r\nNew API \r\n")
print(request_dataNewAPI(userlogin))

Another thing you can look into is Webhooks:
