database.validate_collection
The functionvalidate_collection
is supposed to raise CollectionInvalid
when collection name is invalid as per documentation. However,I when try to catch exception, it does not reach that exception block. Instead I need to trap OperationFailure
error object and use code=26 determine invalid collection name.
try:
client = pymongo.MongoClient(...)
db = client.get_default_database()
db.validate_collection(wrong_name)
except OperationFailure as e:
print(e.code) # <-- reaches
except CollectionInvalid as e:
print("Invalid") # <-- does not reach
Is this expected behavior?
