I'm creating a app that get information from some users, like name, email, ID number, etc. I want to get a response from a POST but in some cases i don't get the email from the users, so I need to create a parameter with this empty data.
In other words I'm making a parse of the parameters of the POST and checking if all the data is good and legit, if I don't get the email from the API i want to create a parameter or maybe a empty string at least.
try:
if not email:
errors['email'] = _(u'This data is missing.')
else:
validate_email(email)
if email != user_data['email']:
if user_data['email'] in ["", None]:
user_data['email'] = email
# If the email is modified, its no longer verified and I check if the user is registered with another email.
if 'email_verified' in user_data:
user_data['email_verified'] = False
users_same_mail = User.objects.filter(email=email)
if users_same_mail.exists():
# I check if the email is twice registered
# I give the user another email registered in the database
errors['email'] = _(
u'The email is already registered.')
except ValidationError as e:
errors['email'] = _(
u'Bad email, please enter another one.')```
What can i write to create a empty string or some value, all i want is to set email to something that is not Null because it will raise a KeyError later when i try to access that key.
