i am making a get request to an api that returns json with configuration
information
i want to parse this json and set all the variables in a `SystemConfiguration`
object for ease of access elsewhere in my code
i have code that does this, but the api doesnt always return every single
possible configuation item since theyre not always relevant
if i try to parse the json response to set such variables, i get `KeyError`
since the json doesnt contain the key for that variable
is there a way to skip over these exceptions and continue parsing the json to
set the other items which were returned?
and if so, can i gather the items that were skipped over so i can for example
`echo` which items could not be parsed?
there are almost 50 items, so i really dont want to have a monstrous try except
for each and every variable
