[Developers] Python query not working?

[Chris Mahon]

Hi Chris,

This is the code. I removed the first [ bracket at the beginning/end. I'm
not at my dev box at the moment to tell you the error, will be later.

Using Django and Python 2.4 if that helps?

CODE
======
from freebase.api import HTTPMetawebSession, MetawebError

query = {  "sort": "s0:type.link.timestamp.value",
    "publisher": {
      "optional": true,
      "name": null,
      "id": null
    },
    "version_specific_name": null,
    "!q2284:\/cvg\/cvg_platform\/games_on_this_platform": [
      {
        "id": "\/en\/xbox_360"
      }
    ],
    "s0:type": [
      {
        "link": [
          {
            "timestamp": [
              {
                "type": "\/type\/datetime",
                "value": null
              }
            ],
            "type": "\/type\/link"
          }
        ],
        "type": "\/type\/type",
        "id": "\/cvg\/game_version"
      }
    ],
    "regions": [
      {
        "name": null,
        "optional": true,
        "id!=": "\/en\/xbox_360",
        "limit": 6,
        "type": "\/cvg\/computer_game_region",
        "id": null
      }
    ],
    "game": {
      "optional": true,
      "name": null,
      "id": null
    },
    "limit": 30,
    "type": "\/cvg\/game_version",
    "id": null,
    "developer": {
      "optional": true,
      "name": null,
      "id": null
    }
}

mss = HTTPMetawebSession('www.freebase.com')
result = mss.mqlread(query)

for game in result.game:
    print game
