Hey @squillace this was really bothering me the other day so I treated myself after coming back from vacation to adding error handling to the exec mixin. Take a look: https://deploy-preview-1854--porter.netlify.app/blog/ignoring-errors/ |

| ## Try it out | ||

|
||
| Bundle authors, try out moving some of that custom error handling logic out of bash scripts and move it into your exec mixin calls. | ||
| Mixin authors, take a look at how the az mixin uses the exec mixin library to add error handling. |

Should we link to the PR adding the logic in the az mixin? Or maybe source code?

The more I thought about it the more I think that just looking at an existing mixin is pretty hard to figure out what's going on. I will hold off on the blog post and implement this stuff in skeletor with lots of comments so that we can point people to that.

Once getporter/skeletor#31 is merged I'll link to the source code that demonstrates how to do this in skeletor

| When is an error not really an error? | ||
| Questions like this come up regularly when automating deployments. |

is this the question? (The when is an error not really an error) and more something like .. Why is my automated deployment erroring out when the resources exist? or something else. It's almost like when is an error not really an error is presupposing folks understanding what's up with the feature that based on me not being as steeped in what's going on with Porter really confused me at first by the title/description even.

I'll rework it so that it's less clever and more clear. 👍
Take another try at introducing the problem fixed by ignoreError Signed-off-by: Carolyn Van Slyck <[email protected]>

@iennae I've rewritten the introductory paragraph, what do you think? |
|
I'm going to ship this blog post since at this point the release is getting a bit old and I've already cut a new one yesterday. Hopefully my edits were sufficient 🤞 |

Oops just realized I'm still waiting for the PR to skeletor to be approved. 😇 |

Notes for the reviewer
I am going to tell people to make custom commands for mixins but we don't really have enough guidance for that yet. I've opened getporter/skeletor#29 to help address that.
