The Reducto Go SDK uses standard Go error handling patterns with a specific *reducto.Error type for API errors.

​
Error Handling

All SDK methods return errors following Go conventions: 
result, err := client.Parse.Run(context.Background(), params)
if err != nil {
    // Handle error
    fmt.Printf("Error: %v\n", err)
    return
}
// Use result...

​
API Error Type

When the API returns a non-success status code, the SDK returns a *reducto.Error: 
import (
    "errors"
    reducto "github.com/reductoai/reducto-go-sdk"
)

result, err := client.Parse.Run(context.Background(), params)
if err != nil {
    var apierr *reducto.Error
    if errors.As(err, &apierr) {
        // Access error details
        fmt.Printf("Status Code: %d\n", apierr.StatusCode)
        fmt.Printf("Request: %s\n", string(apierr.DumpRequest(true)))
        fmt.Printf("Response: %s\n", string(apierr.DumpResponse(true)))
    }
    return err
}
The *reducto.Error type contains:
  • StatusCode: HTTP status code
  • *http.Request: The request that failed
  • *http.Response: The response received
  • DumpRequest(): Serialize the HTTP request for debugging
  • DumpResponse(): Serialize the HTTP response for debugging

​
Error Status Codes

Common status codes:
  • 400: Bad Request - Invalid parameters
  • 401: Authentication Error - Invalid or missing API key
  • 403: Permission Denied - Insufficient permissions
  • 404: Not Found - Resource doesn’t exist
  • 422: Unprocessable Entity - Validation error
  • 429: Rate Limit - Too many requests
  • 500+: Internal Server Error - Server-side issue

​
Automatic Retries

The SDK automatically retries requests on:
  • Connection errors
  • 408 Request Timeout
  • 409 Conflict
  • 429 Rate Limit
  • 5xx Internal Server Errors
Default retry count is 2, configurable via option.WithMaxRetries: 
// Configure default retries for all requests
client := reducto.NewClient(
    option.WithAPIKey(os.Getenv("REDUCTO_API_KEY")),
    option.WithMaxRetries(5), // default is 2
)

// Or per-request
result, err := client.Parse.Run(
    context.Background(),
    params,
    option.WithMaxRetries(3),
)

​
Manual Retry Logic

For custom retry logic: 
import "time"

func parseWithRetry(client *reducto.Client, params reducto.ParseRunParams, maxRetries int) (*shared.ParseResponse, error) {
    var lastErr error
    for i := 0; i < maxRetries; i++ {
        result, err := client.Parse.Run(context.Background(), params)
        if err == nil {
            return result, nil
        }
        lastErr = err
        
        // Exponential backoff
        time.Sleep(time.Duration(1<<uint(i)) * time.Second)
    }
    return nil, lastErr
}

​
Timeouts

Use context for request timeouts: 
// Set timeout for entire request lifecycle (including retries)
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Minute)
defer cancel()

result, err := client.Parse.Run(ctx, params)

// Set per-retry timeout
result, err := client.Parse.Run(
    context.Background(),
    params,
    option.WithRequestTimeout(20*time.Second),
)
