In commons_information.py
try:
import mwparserfromhell
except ImportError as e:
mwparserfromhell = e
try:
import langdetect
except ImportError:
langdetect = None
Later it examines
if isinstance(mwparserfromhell, Exception):
raise mwparserfromhell
Why is it good to delay in such complicated way? Why does not handle the
script the error at once?
I want to invent a script dealing with tables. It could be used directly
with simple arguments and imported in order to use advanced functions. What
is the good way of handling import error? I don't like this mismatch that
mwparserfromhell is either a module or an Exception, is there any advantage
of this solution?
