Error Handling
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Errors are inevitable when working with the API, and they must be correctly handled with ``try..except`` blocks in order
|
|
to control the behaviour of your application. Pyrogram errors all live inside the ``errors`` package:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram import errors
|
|
|
|
RPCError
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
The father of all errors is named ``RPCError``. This error exists in form of a Python exception which is directly
|
|
subclass-ed from Python's main ``Exception`` and is able to catch all Telegram API related errors. This error is raised
|
|
every time a method call against Telegram's API was unsuccessful.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram.errors import RPCError
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
It must be noted that catching this error is bad practice, especially when no feedback is given (i.e. by
|
|
logging/printing the full error traceback), because it makes it impossible to understand what went wrong.
|
|
|
|
Error Categories
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The ``RPCError`` packs together all the possible errors Telegram could raise, but to make things tidier, Pyrogram
|
|
provides categories of errors, which are named after the common HTTP errors and subclass-ed from the RPCError:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram.errors import BadRequest, Forbidden, ...
|
|
|
|
- `303 - SeeOther <../api/errors#seeother>`_
|
|
- `400 - BadRequest <../api/errors#badrequest>`_
|
|
- `401 - Unauthorized <../api/errors#unauthorized>`_
|
|
- `403 - Forbidden <../api/errors#forbidden>`_
|
|
- `406 - NotAcceptable <../api/errors#notacceptable>`_
|
|
- `420 - Flood <../api/errors#flood>`_
|
|
- `500 - InternalServerError <../api/errors#internalservererror>`_
|
|
|
|
Single Errors
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
For a fine-grained control over every single error, Pyrogram does also expose errors that deal each with a specific
|
|
issue. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram.errors import FloodWait
|
|
|
|
These errors subclass directly from the category of errors they belong to, which in turn subclass from the father
|
|
RPCError, thus building a class of error hierarchy such as this:
|
|
|
|
- RPCError
|
|
- BadRequest
|
|
- ``MessageEmpty``
|
|
- ``UsernameOccupied``
|
|
- ``...``
|
|
- InternalServerError
|
|
- ``RpcCallFail``
|
|
- ``InterDcCallError``
|
|
- ``...``
|
|
- ``...``
|
|
|
|
.. _Errors: api/errors
|
|
|
|
Unknown Errors
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
In case Pyrogram does not know anything yet about a specific error, it raises a special ``520 - UnknownError`` exception
|
|
and logs it in the ``unknown_errors.txt`` file. Users are invited to report these unknown errors.
|
|
|
|
Errors with Values
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Exception objects may also contain some informative values. For example, ``FloodWait`` holds the amount of seconds you
|
|
have to wait before you can try again. The value is always stored in the ``x`` field of the returned exception object:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import time
|
|
from pyrogram.errors import FloodWait
|
|
|
|
try:
|
|
...
|
|
except FloodWait as e:
|
|
time.sleep(e.x) # Wait before trying again
|
