Exceptions
**********

Nette Database uses a hierarchy of exceptions. The base class is `Nette\Database\DriverException`, which extends `PDOException` and provides enhanced functionality for working with database errors:

- The `getDriverCode()` method returns the error code from the database driver.
- The `getSqlState()` method returns the SQLSTATE code.
- You can use the `getQueryString()` and `getParameters()` methods to retrieve the original query and its parameters.

The `DriverException` class is extended by the following specialized exceptions:

- `ConnectionException` – indicates a failure to connect to the database server.
- `ConstraintViolationException` – the base class for database constraint violations, from which the following exceptions inherit:
  - `ForeignKeyConstraintViolationException` – violation of a foreign key constraint.
  - `NotNullConstraintViolationException` – violation of a NOT NULL constraint.
  - `UniqueConstraintViolationException` – violation of a uniqueness constraint.


The following example demonstrates how to catch a `UniqueConstraintViolationException`, which happens when trying to insert a user with an email that already exists in the database (assuming the `email` column has a unique index):

```php
try {
	$database->query('INSERT INTO users', [
		'email' => 'john@example.com',
		'name' => 'John Doe',
		'password' => $hashedPassword,
	]);
} catch (Nette\Database\UniqueConstraintViolationException $e) {
	echo 'A user with this email already exists.';

} catch (Nette\Database\DriverException $e) {
	echo 'An error occurred during registration: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
```
