We are not dealing with an unsolved problem. I had been
asking for advice where to best place that .commit() call in
case I am overlooking benefits and drawbacks of choices.
The
try:
do something
except:
log something
finally:
.commit()
cadence is fairly Pythonic and elegant in that it ensures the
the .commit() will always be reached regardless of exceptions
being thrown or not and them being handled or not.
It is also insufficient because the .commit() itself may
elicit exceptions (from the database).
So there's choices:
Ugly:
try:
do something
except:
log something
finally:
try:
.commit()
except:
log some more
Fair but not feeling quite safe:
try:
do something
.commit()
except:
log something
Boring and repetitive and safe(r):
try:
do something
except:
log something
try:
.commit()
except:
log something
I eventually opted for the last version, except for factoring
out the second try: except: block.
Best,
Karsten
