Newbie: throw_error & debugging

Hello,

Some of our publish code is using $burner->throw_error to report errors
that should not be fatal, and yet that method appears to only have fatal
results. In other words, it throws the error in the jobs queue, and
then dies.

Are there alternatives to throw a non-fatal error to the job queue, or
elsewhere, and have the job continue processing. I've searched the API
and cannot find anything.

Thank you,
Mike

Only call throw_error in publish mode.

my $img = $element->get_related_media;
$burner->throw_error('You forgot an image!')
if !$img && $burner->get_mode == PUBLISH_MODE;

Best,

David

What if we want an error to show in publish mode, but we just don't want
it to be fatal?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

You could try Bric::App::Util::add_msg('your message goes here'). Then
the non-fatal error will show alongside the success messages following
the publish.

Hope this helps,

Bret

Where do you want it to show? You probably want `warn`.

Best,

That would be interesting: throw_warning(), but it would probably have
to go into a separate window.

add_msg() appears too late.

Patches welcome. I can see that it'd be useful to have it go to a
window if one is available, and the error log if it's not.

Best,

David
