Reference: Python 3: UnboundLocalError: local variable referenced before assignment
I tried passing parsed_upd as argument and also tried defining as global, I'm still getting the same error
parsed = dict()
def func1(str1):
global parsed
header=str1.split('[',1)[0]
body=str1.split('[',1)[1]
header_parts=header.split(' ')
parsed['timeStamp']=header_parts[1]
parsed['eventDate']=header_parts[1].split('T')[0]
parsed['eventType']=header_parts[5].upper()
body_str=body[:]
esc=0
start=0
end=0
body_parts=list()
while True:
try:
esc = body_str.index('\\]', start)
except:
esc = 0
try:
start = start+1 if body_str[start:-1][0]=='[' else start
end = body_str.index(']', start)
except:
end = 0
if (esc > 0 and esc != end):
continue
if (end > 0):
body_parts.append(body_str[start:end])
start = end + 1
if (end == 0):
break
if (not check(body_parts, 'guId=')):
parsed['eventType'] = 'ERROR_' + header_parts[5].upper()
list_attr = list()
for item in body_parts:
list_attributes = [attrib_dict.strip('"') for attrib in item.split('" ') for attrib_dict in attrib.split('="', 1)]
m = re.search(r'([a-zA-Z]*)(@)([0-9]*)\s+(.+)', list_attributes[0])
if m:
if (not m.group(1).lower().startswith('requestcontext')):
parsed['eventName'] = m.group(1)
list_attributes[0] = m.group(4)
else:
print('Empty list_attributes : {}'.format(list_attributes[0]))
list_attributes.pop(0)
list_attr += list_attributes
parsed_upd = merge(parsed, dict(zip(*[iter(list_attr)] * 2)))
print(parsed_upd)
return parsed_upd
Getting the error in the return statement. Using Python version 2.7.5
