[docs]class Failure(mixins.StrMixin): """An immutable object that represents failure. Failure objects encapsulate exception information so that they can be re-used later to re-raise, inspect, examine, log, print, serialize, deserialize... One example where they are depended upon is in the WBE engine. When a remote worker throws an exception, the WBE based engine will receive that exception and desire to reraise it to the user/caller of the WBE based engine for appropriate handling (this matches the behavior of non-remote engines). To accomplish this a failure object (or a :py:meth:`~.Failure.to_dict` form) would be sent over the WBE channel and the WBE based engine would deserialize it and use this objects :meth:`.reraise` method to cause an exception that contains similar/equivalent information as the original exception to be reraised, allowing the user (or the WBE engine itself) to then handle the worker failure/exception as they desire. For those who are curious, here are a few reasons why the original exception itself *may* not be reraised and instead a reraised wrapped failure exception object will be instead. These explanations are *only* applicable when a failure object is serialized and deserialized (when it is retained inside the python process that the exception was created in the the original exception can be reraised correctly without issue). * Traceback objects are not serializable/recreatable, since they contain references to stack frames at the location where the exception was raised. When a failure object is serialized and sent across a channel and recreated it is *not* possible to restore the original traceback and originating stack frames. * The original exception *type* can not be guaranteed to be found, workers can run code that is not accessible/available when the failure is being deserialized. Even if it was possible to use pickle safely it would not be possible to find the originating exception or associated code in this situation. * The original exception *type* can not be guaranteed to be constructed in a *correct* manner. At the time of failure object creation the exception has already been created and the failure object can not assume it has knowledge (or the ability) to recreate the original type of the captured exception (this is especially hard if the original exception was created via a complex process via some custom exception constructor). * The original exception *type* can not be guaranteed to be constructed in a *safe* manner. Importing *foreign* exception types dynamically can be problematic when not done correctly and in a safe manner; since failure objects can capture any exception it would be *unsafe* to try to import those exception types namespaces and modules on the receiver side dynamically (this would create similar issues as the ``pickle`` module in python has where foreign modules can be imported, causing those modules to have code ran when this happens, and this can cause issues and side-effects that the receiver would not have intended to have caused).
