Error Handling
Learn how to effectively handle errors and exceptions when using Julep SDKs.
Common Error Types
API Errors
try:
agent = client.agents.create(name="Test Agent")
except julep.APIError as e:
print(f"API Error: {e.status_code} - {e.message}")
Authentication Errors
try:
client = julep.Client(api_key="invalid_key")
except julep.AuthenticationError as e:
print(f"Auth failed: {e}")
Rate Limit Errors
try:
results = client.agents.list()
except julep.RateLimitError as e:
print(f"Rate limited. Retry after: {e.retry_after} seconds")
Error Handling Patterns
Retrying Failed Requests
from julep.utils import retry_with_backoff
@retry_with_backoff(max_retries=3)
def create_agent_with_retry():
return client.agents.create(name="Test Agent")
Graceful Degradation
def get_agent_safely(agent_id):
try:
return client.agents.get(agent_id)
except julep.NotFoundError:
return create_default_agent()
except julep.APIError:
return use_cached_agent(agent_id)
Best Practices
- Always wrap API calls in try-except blocks
- Handle specific exceptions before generic ones
- Implement retry logic for transient failures
- Log errors with appropriate context
- Provide meaningful error messages to users
