Error handing is a little broken

Open SuperDisk opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

Whenever an error occurs (for instance posting comments more often than allowed), ElixirPlusReddit crashes. I'll post a stack trace tomorrow.

Yeah, EPR is incomplete as a whole. I never implemented a strategy for handling this sort of rate limiting. This sort of rate limiting is very variable and is based on things like karma, what subreddit you're posting to and so forth.

Well, regardless of whether it's finished or not, it was pretty invaluable in my Reddit bot project. Seriously thanks for making it!

And thank you for using it. I was planning on starting an 'EPR2' with improved design, better OAuth2 support, hitting more endpoints, etc, but have yet to get around to it. I was actually looking for people to start over the project with.

Maybe we could team up. However I will say I pretty much just started with Elixir and don't know the best practices, so if you're shooting for better design then maybe not.

@Rob-bie What would you change in the design? Are you still thinking about doing EPR2? I am interested.
