Error handling for generators #19

Open mo-seph opened 11 years ago

mo-seph commented 11 years ago

Generators/Pipelines need to fail gracefully. If they run and fail, they should:

produce a sensible error message
move the offending data into historic_data so it doesn't cause a problem the next time round

noticed that generators seem to always throw an exception at init, when they iterate through params. get an error about generator id not being null.

I've added a self.save() to the generator's init() to create an id that can then be used by parameters as a foreign key. Is this cool?

mo-seph commented 11 years ago

I think so - certainly something like that needs to happen (i.e. the Generator needs to be saved before it's Parameters can be).
