python 3.x - Odoo 13 API how to save null search results as a string

Question

I am using the Odoo 13 api as such.

  wanted_ids= models.execute_kw(db, uid, password,
                                        'res.partner', 'search_read',
                                        [[['name', '=',False]]],
                                            )
    print(wanted_ids)

as expected nothing is returned.

[]

What I want instead of null

['Nothing found']

I am not sure how to approach this. I have tried to raise exceptions but this does not save to the wanted_ids variable.

Answer 1

if not wanted_ids:
    wanted_ids = ['Nothing found']

This is pure Python, I think so
