Reference

Predictable, typed errors.

The SDK reports failures as typed errors with a human-readable message and a recoverable flag. Native iOS and Android raise NosmaiErrorDomain codes; license checks return a documented string code you can switch on.

  • Catch by type — cameraPermissionDenied, filterLoadFailed, etc.
  • Switch on integer codes — 1001 LicenseInvalid, 1004 CameraPermissionDenied
  • Distinguish definitive vs transient license errors (retry on TOO_MANY_REQUESTS, INTERNAL, NETWORK)
