Exceptions in Async PRAW

In addition to exceptions under the asyncpraw.exceptions namespace shown below, exceptions might be raised that inherit from asyncprawcore.AsyncPrawcoreException. Please see the following resource for information on those exceptions: https://github.com/praw-dev/asyncprawcore/blob/master/asyncprawcore/exceptions.py

asyncpraw.exceptions

Async PRAW exception classes.

Includes two main exceptions: RedditAPIException for when something goes wrong on the server side, and ClientException when something goes wrong on the client side. Both of these classes extend AsyncPRAWException.

All other exceptions are subclassed from ClientException.
