In my project, I spent a couple of hours trying to determine the reason for an exception
withBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)
.After reading the current
aeson
docs, I expected that the case when the file is missing is also reported as a String error.I see that currently, this is not true. I'm not sure these functions should handle missing files so I suggest to just warn about possible exceptions.
