python之为什么我会得到一个(看似)正确拆分的字符串的 IndexError

我目前有一个脚本应该获取并返回 Bit.ly 链接的点击次数。我首先从 Bitly url 收集和读取数据，我似乎在做正确的事情。

    bitly_data = "https://api-ssl.bitly.com/v3/link/clicks?access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN&link=http://bit.ly/"+link 
    src = urllib2.urlopen(bitly_data) 
    src = src.read() 

当 link 是诸如 TY8lnd 之类的东西时，src 是一个看起来像这样的字符串

{"status_code": 200, "data": {"units": -1, "tz_offset": -4, "unit": "day", "link_clicks": 535}, "status_txt": "OK"}

我现在想解析这个字符串以获取 link_clicks 之后的数值。我认为最好的方法是进行两次拆分。

    src=src.split('clicks": ') 
    src = str(src[1]) 
    clicks = src.split('}, "status') 
    clicks = clicks[0] 

当我运行它时，点击次数最终确实等于正确的数字，而且仅此而已。但是，终端为 src = str(src[1]) 行返回 IndexError。我尝试摆脱 str() 但这没有效果。非常感谢尽管最终值已得到纠正，但我仍会收到此错误的理解。

这是完整的回溯:

提前致谢。

请您参考如下方法:

此响应是 json，因此解码 json 而不是尝试解析字符串。

>>> import json 
>>> resp = '{"status_code": 200, "data": {"units": -1, "tz_offset": -4, "unit": "day", "link_clicks": 535}, "status_txt": "OK"}' 
>>> resp_object = json.loads(resp) 
>>> resp_object and resp_object.get('data', {}).get('link_clicks', 0) or 0 
535
