This is completely reasonable and I am actually quite surprised we haven’t done this sooner... Let’s wait to see what others think before merging though. |

Hi! I just had first go at writing a network automation script using napalm; I wanted to wrap my execution block in a try/except block, catching napalm-specific exceptions so that it would not exit the script, but to exit on other exceptions. In order to do this, I would have had to catch almost every listed exception class defined in base/exceptions.py individually.
I wrote a simple patch here to create a new generic NapalmException class, which inherits from Exception, and then modified each other exception class to subclass NapalmException instead. This way, I can list NapalmException as the only exception I need to catch, and then interrogate further for specific exception types if needed.
I've run the docs/test.sh script and all is good; let me know if there's further testing I should be doing before submitting a pull request. Thanks!
