closes #3665 - Show original exception in error messages. #266

Closed sf-dlund closed 7 years ago

sf-dlund commented 8 years ago

Updated init function to include Original Exception attribute as originalExc.

Updated individual error classes to display originalExc.

Updated convert_os_errors to pass exception type into init function for each error type.

Tested by raising various types of errors within local fs implementation.

Thanks for the response. I actually intended to push to a forked version and forgot to change my source.

Sorry, I don't think this adds much. I see what you are trying to do. But often the 'original exception' isn't helpful and even misleading. Better to

store any exception object in the 'details' parameter.

In fs/errors.py https://github.com/PyFilesystem/pyfilesystem/pull/266#pullrequestreview-4290054 :

@@ -49,30 +49,31 @@ class FSError(Exception): """Base exception class for the FS module.""" default_message = "Unspecified error"

  • def init(self,msg=None,details=None):
  • def init(self, msg=None, details=None, originalExc=None):

Parameters should be lower_case_and_underscores
