How do I catch (nimpy.KeyError) in Python?

[yuyamashiro]

I want to except nimpy.KeyError.
However I can't do it.

Example:

try:
        # Some code: call Nim by nimpy
    except KeyError as e:
        # I  can't catch nimpy.KeyError
        print("key error")
        print(e, type(e))
    except Exception as e:
        print("Unknown")
        print(e, type(e))
        raise e

Output

Unknown
Unexpected error encountered: key not found: city <class 'nimpy.KeyError'>
nimpy.KeyError: ...

How do I catch nimpy.KeyError?

I'm also interested how nimpy exceptions can be catched. Or how Python Exceptions could be raised from nim.

This is a very old issue, but it's affecting me too, and I think I have a way to fix nimpy to raise native python exceptions when possible.
