lambda from __getattr__ getting called with "connection" as a keyword argument?

[151henry151]

This code:

#!/usr/bin/env python2
import bigcommerce
import bigcommerce.api
BIG_URL = 'store-45eg5.mybigcommerce.com'
BIG_USER = 'henry'
BIG_KEY = '10f0f4f371f7953c4d7d7809b62463281f15c829'

api = bigcommerce.api.BigcommerceApi(host=BIG_URL, basic_auth=(BIG_USER, BIG_KEY))
def get_category_id(name):
    get_request = api.Categories.get(name)
    try:
        cat_list = api.Categories.all(name=name)
        if cat_list:
            return cat_list[0]['id']
        else:
            return None
    except:
        return None
def create_category(name):
    rp = api.Categories.create(name)
    if rp.status == 201:
        return rp.json()['id']
    else:
        return get_category_id(name)
create_category('anothertestingcat')

Gives this traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./bigcommerceimporter.py", line 50, in
create_category('anothertestingcat')
File "./bigcommerceimporter.py", line 44, in create_category
rp = api.Categories.create(name)
File "/home/henry/big_test_zone/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/bigcommerce/api.py", line 57, in
return lambda _args, *_kwargs: (getattr(self.resource_class, item))(_args, connection=self.connection, *_kwargs)
TypeError: create() got multiple values for keyword argument 'connection'

I believe this is a bug/glitch in or around line 57 in api.py. It looks like lambda from getattr is getting called with "connection" as a keyword argument when it shouldn't be.

This was not a bug after all, it was simply incorrect usage.
