Script that request data from twitch API crashes without errors | Python 3.6 over Ubuntu

I’m not sure what you have going on in your script, but hopefully this helps. Both V5 and New API examples.

import requests

chanid = "23161357" # LIRIK's channel ID
userlogin = "joshog"

client_id = "################################"

def request_datav5(id):
    headers = {"Client-ID": client_id, "Accept": "application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json"}
    url = "https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/" + chanid
    r = requests.get(url, headers=headers).json()
    return r
    # If a bad channel ID response will be:
    # {'error': 'Internal Server Error', 'status': 500, 'message': ''}

    # If streamer is offline response will be:
    # {'stream': None}

print("\r\nAPI V5 \r\n")
print(request_datav5(chanid))

def request_dataNewAPI(userlogin):
    headers = {"Client-ID": client_id, "Accept": "application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json"}
    url = "https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?user_login=" + userlogin
    r = requests.get(url, headers=headers).json()
    return r
    # If a bad user login name or offline response will be:
    # {'data': [], 'pagination': {}}

print ("\r\nNew API \r\n")
print(request_dataNewAPI(userlogin))

Another thing you can look into is Webhooks:
