NAME

OAuthomatic::Error - structured exceptions thrown by OAuthomatic

DESCRIPTION

Errors defined here allow for inspection of various error details.

SYNOPSIS

try {
    OAuthomatic::Error::Sth->throw({
        ident   => 'short description',
        # ... other params
    });
} catch {
    my $error = $_;
    if ($error->isa('OAuthomatic::Error')) {
        print $error->message, "\n\n", $error->stack_trace->as_string;
        # Or use class-dependant fields
    }
};

OAuthomatic::Error::HTTPFailure

Object representing various communication and OAuth-protocol related failures.

try {
    OAuthomatic::Error::HTTPFailure->throw({
        ident    => 'OAuth HTTP request failed',
        request  => $request,   # HTTP::Request
        response => $response, # HTTP::Response
    });
} catch {
    my $error = $_;
    if ($error->isa('OAuthomatic::Error::HTTPFailure')) {
        print "$error\n";   # message
        print $error->stack_trace->as_string;  # if necessary
        if($error->is_new_client_key_required) {
            # request new client (application) key
        } elsif($error->is_new_token_required) {
            # redo authorization sequence
        }
        # See also other fields - code, uri, struct_detail
    }
};

METHODS

is_new_client_key_required()

Do details of this error mean, that OAuth client key in use is no longer valid and should be replaced?

is_new_token_required()

Do details of this error mean, that OAuth token in use is no longer valid and application should get new one?

ATTRIBUTES

request

http::request object containing request which caused failure

response

HTTP::Response object containing obtained reply

code

Shortcut. HTTP error code (400, 401, 500, ...).

status

Shortcut. HTTP status line

oauth_problem

If description of actual OAuth problem was detected, appropriate text code, for example parameter_absent, token_revoked, consumer_key_rejected, ...

See http://wiki.oauth.net/w/page/12238543/ProblemReporting for possible values.

detail

Error detail. Formatted from information available in response content (if format was not recognized, this very content by itself).

struct_detail

Deserialized error detail in case output contains form-encoded data. Handles:

form-serialized data

Frequently used in OAuth initial protocol sequences, for example you may see here:

{
    oauth_problem => 'parameter_absent',
    oauth_parameters_absent => 'oauth_consumer_key',
}
JSON error output

For example

{
    error => { id => '9e9c7bddeff3',
               message => 'Object already deleted' },
}
method

Shortcut. HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)

uri

Shortcut. URI object representing the call.

OAuthomatic::Error::Generic

try {
    OAuthomatic::Error::Generic->throw({
        ident   => 'Required parameter missing',
        extra   => "Neither body, nor body_params provided."
    });
} catch {
    my $error = $_;
    if ($error->isa('OAuthomatic::Error::Generic')) {
        print "$error\n";   # message
        print $error->stack_trace->as_string;  # if necessary
    }
};

ATTRIBUTES

ident

Short error description

extra
