Any way to differentiate a link being grabbed from a reddit comment

[sinclairkosh]

So I have a line

"'_reddit' in locals()": "{_reddit[subreddit]}_{_reddit[author]}_{_reddit[id]}_{category}_{_reddit[date]:%Y-%m-%d}{album[id]:?_/_/}{_reddit[title][:100]:R /_/R.//R’//R!//R?//R://R,//R://R'//}{num:?_/_/>03}{filename}.{extension}",

and I have comments: set to greater than zero

that line errors whenever an imgur link pops up in the comments as it's complaining about the date

[imgur][error] FilenameFormatError: Applying filename format string failed (ValueError: Invalid format specifier '%Y-%m-%d' for object of type 'str')
I'm trying to add another clause like the above but can't find the magic keyword combo to basically tell it this is a comment just use the imgur date.

In other semi-related news. is there a way to dump the locals() as a debugging tool. I tried -j but the json didn't seem directly related/linked to the keywords etc.

You could test if _reddit[date] is a plain string and not format it with %Y-%m-%d in that case, I guess.

'_reddit' in locals() and isinstance(_reddit['date'], str)

print(locals()) in any conditional would work, although it wouldn't be formatted in a nice way.
