馃敡 Code Quality: Improve error handling and add proper exception management#8

Description

Error Handling Issues

Current Problems:

  1. Generic Exception Handling

    • All routes catch generic Exception without specific handling
    • No distinction between different error types
    • Same error response for all failures
  2. Missing Error Handling

    • functions/video/video_kaggle.py: No error handling for file operations
    • No validation that video_path exists before opening
    • No handling for Kaggle API failures beyond basic checks
  3. Silent Failures

    • functions/video/video_kaggle.py:14,19,34: Functions return None on error instead of raising exceptions
    • Callers don't know if operation failed
    • Could cause NoneType errors downstream
  4. No Error Context

    • Error messages don't include request context
    • Difficult to debug production issues
    • No error tracking/monitoring integration
  5. File Operation Errors

    • No handling for permission errors
    • No handling for disk space issues
    • No validation of file paths

Recommended Fixes:

  • Create custom exception classes for different error types
  • Add specific exception handling for common failures
  • Ensure functions raise exceptions instead of returning None
  • Add request context to error logs
  • Implement proper error responses with appropriate HTTP status codes
  • Add error monitoring (e.g., Sentry integration)
