http://localhost/ticket/2500 <h2 id="Originalbugreport:">Original bug report:</h2> <blockquote class="citation"> <p> Hi CKAN devs, </p> <p> Can I request that ckan.logic.get_action raises an exception if the action requested doesn't exist? </p> </blockquote> <blockquote class="citation"> <p> Two of us had a frustrating time tracking down an exception this morning. It's difficult when the exception is raised in python in a template because you don't get a line number. The problem was caused by a new logic function being added to another extension, and we hadn't updated the code there. So if get_action raised an proper exception rather than silently returning None then I think we'd have found the problem quicker. </p> </blockquote> <blockquote class="citation"> <p> I'd write the code for this, but as I understand that the new system would require a ticket, branch, pull request, code review, merge. It seems a lot to do for such a small thing. </p> </blockquote> <blockquote class="citation"> <p> Dave </p> </blockquote> en-us http://assets.okfn.org/p/ckan/img/ckan_logo_shortname.png http://localhost/ticket/2500 Trac 0.12.3 ross Wed, 13 Jun 2012 10:58:53 GMT http://localhost/ticket/2500#comment:1 http://localhost/ticket/2500#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>owner</strong> set to <em>ross</em> </li> <li><strong>status</strong> changed from <em>new</em> to <em>accepted</em> </li> </ul> Ticket ross Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:48:52 GMT http://localhost/ticket/2500#comment:2 http://localhost/ticket/2500#comment:2 <ul> <li><strong>priority</strong> changed from <em>awaiting triage</em> to <em>awaiting merge</em> </li> </ul> Ticket icmurray Thu, 21 Jun 2012 15:47:16 GMT http://localhost/ticket/2500#comment:3 http://localhost/ticket/2500#comment:3 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> changed from <em>accepted</em> to <em>closed</em> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> set to <em>fixed</em> </li> </ul> Ticket
