Error Handling

Good error handling is the difference between a stable integration and random production failures.

Exception hierarchy

• FragmentError
  • ClientError
    • ConfigurationError
    • CookieError
  • FragmentAPIError
    • FragmentPageError
    • UserNotFoundError
    • AnonymousNumberError
    • TransactionError
    • ParseError
    • VerificationError
  • OperationError
    • WalletError
    • UnexpectedError

Recommended handling pattern

from pyfragment import ConfigurationError, FragmentError, UserNotFoundError, WalletError

try:
    result = await client.purchase_stars("@username", amount=500)
except UserNotFoundError:
    # recipient does not exist on Fragment
    ...
except WalletError:
    # insufficient balance or wallet-side issue
    ...
except ConfigurationError:
    # invalid local input
    ...
except FragmentError:
    # any other library-level failure
    ...

Catch specific errors first, then fallback to FragmentError.

Method-to-error mapping

• Stars/Premium purchase and giveaway: ConfigurationError, UserNotFoundError, WalletError, VerificationError
• Ads operations: ConfigurationError, UserNotFoundError, WalletError, VerificationError
• Cookies/auth setup: CookieError, ConfigurationError, FragmentPageError
