Fix crash when running kaggle command with invalid credentials#1092
Merged
Conversation
Prevent process exit/crash on import by wrapping api.authenticate() in try-except in __init__.py. Add _authenticated flag to KaggleApi to track if authentication has succeeded. Add lazy authentication in cli.py main() before executing commands if not already authenticated. Handle KeyError in _authenticate_with_oauth_creds in kaggle_api_extended.py to prevent traceback when kaggle.json is invalid. TAG=agy CONV=71ce0bd3-ce00-40b5-9529-86de0c1d0618
