🔒 How do I make exceptions with this library?

[frank moat]

        try:
            auth = Auth.Token(os.getenv("GH_TOKEN"))
            g = Github(auth=auth)
        except 

So if the exception was because the credentials were bad, what would that exception be called based of the documentation below? Tried a few things but didn't seem to work so I assume I am not approaching this the right way.

What exactly have you tried, and how are you importing the package?

[potent basin]

exceptiongithub.GithubException.GithubException(status

bad copypasta sec

So, in the code what would that look like?

My brain is not braining aha.

[potent basin]

from github.GithubException.GithubException import BadCredentialsException

[frank moat]

So I'd have to do that for each exception I want to use from GitHub, can I not import all the exceptions?

[potent basin]

except BadCredentialsException as e:
do something

I suppose you could, depends on how your importing github already.. but you would still have to except on each one you want to use..
like if you import github you could just call each except directly like yhe import statement..

except github.GithubException.GithubException.BadCredentialsException

better to just pull all out you want to reference onetime to make it more readable,

from github.GithubException.GithubException import BadCredentialsException,BadAttributeException, etc

Okay, I understand, thank you for your help!
