Restore call convention compatibility in get_model#304
Merged
Conversation
A bug surfaced where first time evaluation of a model fails due to the Model constructor throwing if the model does not exist. Looking deeper, we see that most calls to get_model expect a possible None response and check at the call site. Unfortunately we get the same WebserviceException class for a model not being found as we do a REST error or similar. This change is a stopgap mitigation to restore compatibility with the existing callers, and compromises by allowing the model version dependent behavior to continue passing on exceptions. In a future follow up we should settle on a convention and allow version checks to propagate failure while still giving the possibility for handling a service exception in the caller.

Deployment isn't using this method - why WebserviceException? It should be just the training and batch scoring pipeline that uses this.

Nevermind - I see what you're saying. Can you make a new issue for this?

LGTM - can you run the batch scoring pipeline to make sure this doesn't affect that (it shouldn't, but just to be sure)? |
