We've identified two behaviors that make this user experience frustrating:

  • earthaccess.download(), when it encounters a 403 due to a user not accepting EULA. @jessnicwelch showed a way to reproduce in this thread. When this error happens, we need to display a message like: Access to this data has been denied because it requires you to accept a End-User License Agreement (EULA). Follow this link to view and accept the EULA: https://{the rest of it}. The URL we need to display should be contained in the 403 response data. This is what this ticket is about.

  • earthaccess.download() will continue after an error. New ticket for this: earthaccess.download() ignores errors #581

Original description:

If we get a 302 redirect for a particular dataset, see if we can detect if the reason is the lack of an EULA (NASA requires users to approve an EULA for some datasets) and explain what happened.

Currently, users can receive a confusing message:

requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: ...

The UMM-C (CMR Collection) schema was updated to include EULA information, so this can now be determined programmatically by a client in order to provide better error handling: https://bugs.earthdata.nasa.gov/browse/SDRT-1236. I don't have an example handy but it looks like this is now included as a EULA identifiers list under UseConstraints (https://bugs.earthdata.nasa.gov/browse/ECSE-1213).

@asteiker My understanding is that only tells us whether a collection has a EULA (and provides a link to accept it?), not whether the user has accepted it. Is that right? Maybe there's some data in the 403 response that we can use, e.g. {"reason": "EULA not accepted"}? I vaguely remember discussing this with you and Daniel Crumly not so long ago. Do you remember that? 🤔

@mfisher87 I believe there is indeed data in the 403 response that tells a client whether or not the EULA was accepted. The EULA response was utilized in the Harmony API for this exact use case. Does this Harmony test help? Can we leverage something similar for earthaccess? https://github.com/nasa/harmony/blob/main/services/harmony/test/eula-acceptance.ts

Howdy! I recreated the problem using a fresh EDL account without accepting EULAs

Jess and Matt spoke during an Openscapes call today about the next steps on this issue. Jess will begin learning/experimenting with Python debugging to get a better look at the messages/code related to the observed errors.

Hi, @mfisher87. I took time to figure out how to use debugging with Python. Either I was unsuccessful or the debugging tools aren't useful for this code. My interpretation is that there isn't an error associated with the code earthaccess.download(results, "C:/Users/qnw/Downloads/files") as the code executes, it simply doesn't download the files to the directory "files," but the directory is created. Below is (1) the script, (2) screenshot of the debugging process., and (3) interactive code. Once I "step into" the breakpoint, it executes the code and provides the error messages (like above and) commented out in the code block below.

Thanks for sharing back, Jess! I'm not sure I'll have time to dig in to this before next hack day. Would that be a good time to chat more about this?

If you need to "talk," I have availability next Tuesday and Friday. Lemme know what works for you.

The problem is that we're using pqdm under the covers (not sure I agree with how/where this is used, but that's a separate topic), which is what is parallelizing the downloads and providing the "pretty" progress bars.

Unfortunately, we're using pqdm's default error-handling, which is to "ignore" errors, and simply collect them. This is why you're getting back a list of errors rather than having an error raised. This leads to the poor user experience you're having because no error is raised, so it is misleading you to believe that nothing went wrong, only to discover that your download "results" are simply a bunch of exception objects.

@mfisher87, a possible short-term "fix" for this would be for us to pass either "immediate" or "deferred" (instead of defaulting to "ignore") for pqdm's exception_behavior parameter. Choosing "immediate" will immediately reraise the first error encountered. Choosing "deferred" will continue working in the face of exceptions and raise an exception at the end, with the exception being a conglomeration of all encountered errors. Given that a single download failure very likely means that all will fail (certainly in the case that an EULA has not been accepted), it might be pointless (and wasteful) to use "deferred", so "immediate" might be the better choice.

Nice sleuthing! "ignore" is obviously not what we want. It looks like pqdm might also be making debugging more of a challenge here, too! Sorry @jessnicwelch if that was proving to be a wrench in the works. What do you think of those options?

My opinion: I tend to agree with "immediate", but I also really like the idea of exposing a fail_at_end: bool = False parameter that lets users control it. I don't think we should let users disable the exception entirely, as is the current behavior, I think we should encourage them to use try/except for that. So they'd only be choosing between "deferred" and "immediate" pqdm options.

I like the idea of exposing the control to the user. I suggest we name the additional parameter fail_fast, which we would default to True, if the user does not specify a value.

I definitely like fail_fast: bool = True better :) Thinking forward to when we have a CLI, it might be used as --no-fail-fast. I don't have strong feelings about that. Do you?

No preferences because I don't know enough to provide a useful opinion. 😆

I prefer fail_fast (it's shorter and is used in numerous other contexts, so it brings familiarity), and I like your thinking about the future CLI.

I think we're ready to implement this. @jessnicwelch are you interested in taking that on?

@Sherwin-14 was looking for an issue that might be a good fit, but there are other options as well if you want this one :)

I'm not sure what I'm implementing... sorry. If it's coding earthaccess, I don't think I have the expertise to do that. I'm better at documentation and testing.

No apologies necessary :) Awesome work getting us this far! 🚀

Just to sum up in one place for everyone:

  • earthaccess.download(), when it encounters a 403 due to a user not accepting EULA. @jessnicwelch showed a way to reproduce in this thread. When this error happens, we need to display a message like: Access to this data has been denied because it requires you to accept a End-User License Agreement (EULA). Follow this link to view and accept the EULA: https://{the rest of it}. The URL we need to display should be contained in the 403 response data. This is what this ticket is about.

  • earthaccess.download() will continue after an error. New ticket for this: earthaccess.download() ignores errors #581

I'll update the OP with this summary.
