Figure out why we can't run the netflix_to_wikidata script on all the movies

[audiodude]

It seems to be crashing part of the way through. Let's post the stack trace in this bug and see if we can figure it out.

Looks like the network requests are just a bit flaky and eventually one gets stuck and times out. Maybe we're getting rate limited (we should look into that).

Okay, I ran the code with the version in #17, with the exponential backoff and with tqdm showing a progress bar. It failed 27% of the way through, but with a different error message than the one we got before:

27%|█████████████████▉                                                | 4824/17770 [28:09<1:15:33,  2.86it/s]

    raise HTTPError(http_error_msg, response=self)
requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: https://query.wikidata.org/sparql

A 400 error means that there was something wrong with the request, with what we sent Wikidata. My guess is that there is a movie name like "Face/Off" that has a slash in the name or something, and it's not getting properly escaped, which would make the SPARQL invalid. Picture a movie like Joe's "Magical" Adventure. When put into the SPARQL it would be:

                                mwapi:search "%(Title)s" ;

which would turn into

                                mwapi:search "Joe's "Magical" Adventure" ;

And the quotes would be messed up. We know the error happens at or around item 4824 in the data, so we should just be able to look at the movie titles at that line and figure out what's going on.

Please checkout #17 and run the code and try to figure out what's going on.

Okay I was curious. I changed the iteration to:

    for row in tqdm(data_csv[4820:]):

and added error handling around raise_for_status():

        try:
            response.raise_for_status()
        except requests.exceptions.HTTPError as e:
            print(repr(row))
            raise e

And got this:

['4825', '1985', 'Brazil: The "Love Conquers All" Version']

Putting aside that this is unlikely to match any movies anyways, we should either:

1. Skip trying to match any movies with quotes
2. Properly escape the quotes (will need to lookup how SPARQL does that)

Here's a few more that didn't work from my handling of the 400 error:
