I have a service class called IgUserProfile
which looks something like this:
class IgUserProfile < IgRequest
def self.call(user_name)
json = make_request(user_name)
user_info = json['user_info'].text
Parsers::UserProfile.new user_info
end
end
Sometimes, if the user does not exist (json
comes empty), an error is raised when calling .text
. We can handle that error and we know what it means: 'the user was not found'.
However, I'm trying to think of what would be the best result to return from IgUserProfile.call
in this case. I was thinking of returning an Exception. Something as IG::UserNotFound
. However, as I see, Exceptions indicate errors, but I'm not sure this is an error from our application standpoint. How can I approach this?
Thanks in advance.
