asciimatics too many values to unpack (expected 2) error

Question

I am trying to make a simple shop application with asciimatics module.It is supposed to be a app where you can browse products, like in a shop and then you can add or delete the item from your cart. I was using their contact list sample app as my guide, but when I wrote my code I got stuck at this error

kumecky@osmijanko:~/notebooks$ python3 form.py

Here is my code - ShopDB class is just holding database object and Shop class is working with asciimatics module itself.

Answer 1

Seems like your self._options have more than two values after enumerating. That's why these values can't be assigned to [_, value] in your code. Example of this:

sample = [[1,2,3], [4,5,6]]
enums = list(enumerate(sample))
for i, [j, k] in enums:
    print(i, j, k)

This code gives an error, because Python tries to match [1,2,3] to [j, k] , which can't be done. If your really want to do this and you don't have to worry about what exactly j and k are, just go with * operator, then:

sample = [[1,2,3], [4,5,6]]
enums = list(enumerate(sample))
for i, [j, *k] in enums:
    print(i, j, k)

Output:

0 1 [2, 3]
1 4 [5, 6]
