how do i use "list_categories".

[makaloni6]

Hi.

I want to use "list_categories()".
My code is below.

・Code

res_catalog = Catalog(credentials=credentials, marketplace=Marketplaces.JP)
res = res_catalog.list_categories('B08MYJHQ84')

・result
AttributeError: 'Catalog' object has no attribute 'list_categories'

I checked this object by dir().

print(dir(res_catalog) )
-> 
['__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__init_subclass__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__module__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', '__weakref__', '_add_marketplaces', '_auth', '_check_response', '_request', '_request_a', '_request_grantless_operation', '_sign_request', 'auth', 'boto3_client', 'content_type', 'credentials', 'endpoint', 'get_item', 'grantless_auth', 'headers', 'list_items', 'marketplace_id', 'method', 'region', 'role', 'scheme', 'set_role', 'user_agent']

How do I use this method ?
Thank you.

You can't use it now if you install library via pip because this function has not yet been added to the last release.

how should we install it then?

As @miogarun mention if you do not update the catalog.py trough the last commit:
https://github.com/saleweaver/python-amazon-sp-api/blob/master/sp_api/api/catalog/catalog.py
You cannot use that endpoint that I added, but when you update the sub-api you need pass your ASIN or SellerSKU as key argument so the right way should be:

    try:
        res = Catalog(credentials=credentials, marketplace=Marketplaces.JP).list_categories(
            ASIN='B08MYJHQ84',
        )
        logging.info(res)
    except SellingApiException as ae:
        logging.error(ae)
