When botocore raises a ClientError, all error details are buried in nested dictionaries (e.g., error.response['Error']['Code'], error.response['Error']['Message']); this package exposes them as direct attributes (error.code, error.message, error.http_status_code, error.operation_name) and lets you catch specific AWS error codes as exception types (e.g., except errors.NoSuchBucket) rather than inspecting dictionary contents.\n\nThe package provides three main interfaces: the `errors` class for simple error-code matching in except blocks, the `catch_aws_error()` function for more complex conditions (including regex matching or operation-name filtering), and the `get_aws_error_info()` function to extract error metadata from any ClientError. It requires only botocore as a dependency and supports Python 3.7 through 3.11.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is lightweight (pure Python, one dependency), production-stable, carries no security vulnerabilities, and meaningfully reduces error-handling boilerplate. Dormant maintenance is not a concern because error handling for existing AWS services rarely changes. Install it if you write botocore code with more than a few try-except blocks."},"id":"aws-error-utils","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-error-utils","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-error-utils.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aws-error-utils/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-11-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aws-error-utils","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Error-handling functions for boto3/botocore"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":376394,"position":7129,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.7.0"}
