Comment (by Yawar Quadir Amin):
Here's a simplified example. I have a `views.py` with:
{{{
# Obviously, this is used as a handler for a route in urls.py
def handle_foo(request: HttpRequest, **kwargs: dict[str, Any]) ->
HttpResponse:
do_something(json.loads(request.body.decode('utf-8'))['field_i_want'])
}}}
And I have `do_something` defined as:
{{{
def do_something(value: str):
if bad(value): raise ValidationError('bad value')
return f'good value: {value}'
}}}
Now I expect this to respond with a 400 Bad Request, but it responds with
500 Internal Server Error. And the traceback points to the function in
Django Core which I linked earlier. It seems like this function is
supposed to handle Django exceptions, so I'm wondering why it doesn't
handle the ValidationException?
