Hey everyone,
Short post today for a small but important update to hive-nectar. This one isn't a fancy new feature, but rather a necessary patch that came directly from community feedback.
A user who was migrating their projects from beem to hive-nectar pointed out that their scripts were failing to load a few posts. After digging into it, we realized that some older communities, particularly waivio, are still setting their community tag via the post's json_metadata instead of using the built-in community field that is standard now.
The Comment() function was causing a key error because the community field was not present, but the community tag was in the json_metadata of the post.
To ensure backward compatibility and support for these older communities, I've pushed an emergency patch. The function will now check for the community in the json_metadata if the primary community field is not present.
hive-nectar now sits at version v0.0.11 with this simple fix. It's not a spectacular change, but it was a needed one to ensure the library works as expected across the entire Hive ecosystem, old and new.
You can get the latest version from GitHub or PyPI.

As always, a huge thank you to the community members who provide feedback and help find these edge cases!
