i am trying to convert dblp xml dataset to csv using Thomhurks dblp to csv library but i am getting the error . what could this error possibly be??



Start!
Reading elements from DTD file...
Finding unique attributes for all elements...
Opening output files...
Parsing XML and writing to CSV files...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "myscript.py", line 400, in <module>
main()
File "myscript.py", line 378, in main
relations, unique_id = parse_xml(xml_file, elements, output_files, args.relations)
File "myscript.py", line 167, in parse_xml
set_relation_values(relations, data, relation_attributes, unique_id)
File "myscript.py", line 195, in set_relation_values
if column_name in relation_attributes:
TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable


here is the code detailed code can be seen from this github repository https://github.com/ThomHurks/dblp-to-csv



def main():
args = parse_args()
if args.xml_filename is not None and args.dtd_filename is not None and args.outputfile is not None:
start_time = time.time()
print("Start!")



if __name__ == "__main__":

  • On a high level, I understand there is no value getting inside the 'data' variable. Print and check if you have something in 'data' variable. If you fix, this would be solved.

    Based on the error message, it looks like relation_attributes is None, and can't be used for in
