HTTP not found on Alert Obj about python-argusclient HOT 3 OPEN

So DELETE and PUT is the way to go.

Not sure what you mean by this, are you suggesting to use one of these methods instead of GET ?

We just need a better mechanism for handling the error.May be instead of raise, just catch the exception and gently let the calling function know?

Perhaps you have something like returning a None to the caller in mind, but throwing an exception is in general better and consistent with many other APIs. However, instead of a generic ArgusException, it could throw a special exception meant to indicate this very condition, say ArgusObjectNotFoundException. The caller can then catch this and handle it appropriately, which is similar to checking for a None return value.

1. I meant whatever we are trying to do with lookup to see if alert exists and delete it and then recreate is the right way.

2. +1 to the idea of the new Exception. I'll send you a PR soon, let me know what you think.

Sure, please send the PR, thank you. You will need to update the unit tests too.
