So I have a pretty generic logging statement after a request:
try:
r = requests.get(testUrl, timeout=10.0)
except Exception, err:
logger.error({"message": err.message})
This works great for everything I've thrown at it except TimeoutError. When the request times out the err I get back is a tuple that it tries and fails to serialize.
My question is how do I catch just this one type of error? For starters TimeoutError is not something I have access to. I have tried adding from exceptions import * but with no luck. I've also tried importing OSError because the docs say TimeoutError is a subclass, but I was unable to access TimeoutError after importing OSError.
I plan to either list my exceptions in order:
except TimeoutError, err:
#handle this specific error
except Exception, err:
#handle all other errors
or just check for type:
except Exception, err:
if isinstance(err, TimeoutError):
#handle specific error
#handle all other errors
Python 2.7.3 & Django 1.5

You can handle requests.Timeout exception:
try:
r = requests.get(testUrl, timeout=10.0)
except requests.Timeout as err:
logger.error({"message": err.message})
except requests.RequestException as err:
# handle other errors
Example:
>>> import requests
>>> url = "http://httpbin.org/delay/2"
>>> try:
... r = requests.get(url, timeout=1)
... except requests.Timeout as err:
... print(err.message)
...
HTTPConnectionPool(host='httpbin.org', port=80): Read timed out. (read timeout=1)
