Summary
There are several improvements to the stamp_pdf method, enhancing both its efficiency and error handling:
Early Return for File Existence Check:
Instead of using an if/else block to check if the file exists, it will now use an early return (return unless File.exist?(stamped_template_path)) This simplifies the code and reduces nesting, making it more readable.
Added Robust Error Handling:
This PR will introduce a rescue block to gracefully handle potential errors during the PDF stamping process. This ensures the application doesn't crash if something goes wrong.
Improved Error Logging:
Inside the rescue block, there is now log the error message (Rails.logger.error "Error stamping PDF: #{e.message}"), providing more context for debugging by including the specific exception message.
4.More Informative Error Raising:
When re-raising the error, it will provide a more general message (raise "Error stamping PDF: #{stamped_template_path}") that focuses on the action (stamping the PDF) rather than just the file existence. This gives a clearer indication of where the problem occurred.
