MMDBClient error debug for register_app

register_app_test.py

# Settings for local.py
#
# MMDB_API_HOST = 'http://mc.dev.nationalgeographic.com:8000'
#
# Load test database in your db. Use production db for this test if possible
# $ python manage.py loaddata mmdb/apps/users/fixtures/test_user.json


from mmdbcommons.client import MMDBClient, mmdb_client
from mmdbcommons.exceptions import AppAlreadyRegisteredError

# Create the client
client = MMDBClient(api_key='MMDB_DEBUG_KEY', api_user='memcen_debug')

try:
    client.register_app(9617855, 'YourShot')
except (AppAlreadyRegisteredError, ):
    print 'Ignored!'

Possible Solutions:

1. Ask YourShot to hit the endpoint directly

2. Modify the serializer error to raise ERROR_APP_ALREADY_REGISTERED instead of ERROR_DUPLICATE
   NOTE: this will require to update unit tests and membercenter code. MMDBClient will work as a result of the changes.
