"f(x) or g(x)" raises an exception if "f(x)" raises an exception, or
if "f(x)" returns a false value and "g(x)" raises an exception.

Adapt this:
>>> {}.get('foo') or {'empty':''}.get('empty') or 'catchall'
'catchall'
Or nest the calls this way if an empty string is a valid value:
>>> {}.get('foo', {'empty':''}.get('empty', 'catchall'))
''
This will compute the default values even when they are not used.
