exception linkahead.exceptions.TransactionError(error=None, msg='An error occured during the transaction.', container=None)

Bases: LinkAheadException

An error of this type is raised whenever any transaction fails with one or more entities between client and LinkAhead server. More detailed errors are collected as direct and indirect children in the ‘errors’ list (direct children) and the ‘all_errors’ set (set of all direct and indirect children).

add_error(error)

Add an error as a direct child to this TransactionError.

@param error: An EntityError or a list of EntityErrors.

@raise TypeError: If and only if the ‘error’ parameter is not an instance of EntityError.

@return: self.

has_error(error_t, direct_children_only=False)

Check whether this transaction error contains an error of type error_t. If direct_children_only is True, only direct children are checked.

Parameters:
  • error_t (EntityError) – error type to be checked

  • direct_children_only (bool, optional) – If True, only direct children, i.e., all errors in self.errors are checked. Else all direct and indirect children, i.e., all errors in self.all_errors are used. Default is false.

Returns:

has_error – True if at least one of the children is of type error_t, False otherwise.

bool
