keyword search broken

[ringjohn]

Hello, thanks for making this API.

The keyword search function seems to be broken when I tried it.

code snippet per the api documentation:

keyword_search = api.data_by_keyword(keyword=['crude oil', 'price'],
                                     filters_to_keep=['brent'],
                                     filters_to_remove=['AEO2015'],
                                     rows=1000)

returns this result:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    168                 categories_dict[k['name']]['Units'] = k['units']
    169                 categories_dict[k['name']]['Frequency'] = k['frequency']

TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'

I also faced issue while using EIA_python,

Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 4, in File "eia/api.py", line 301, in data_by_keyword rows) File "eia/api.py", line 167, in search_by_keyword categories_dict[k['name']] = {} TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'

Is the error I am facing while using "api.data_by_keyword" function

Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention. It appears that EIA recently changed a structure of the json data that is returned when a search query is made. I've made a minor change to the code (now version 1.22). Please let me know if you continue to have problems.

Hello @mra1385 . I tried to use the function again. But unfortunately it is still giving me error. It is related to json.

[mra1385]

@cminal29 Are you sure you're using the latest version 1.22? I just tested it again and it seems to be working fine. Perhaps try removing and re-installing the module. If you send me the exact line of code you're entering, which is giving you the error, I can test it out. Thanks.

@mra1385 ,

Hey, its working absolutely fine. ITs the version problem as you pointed out. I freshly installed 1.22. It working working fine..
