limited exception message length

[lydenn]

in the RequestException, exception message is set to limit only 200 characters. is there anyway to allow the message length more than that?

I think this is just a limit set by Saloon, I'd be happy to accept a PR which increases this limit.

@lydenn Like Sam says, it's a limit in Saloon only (in the RequestException, like you said).
I don't think you can properly override the max body length property right now, unfortunately.

The way I've handled this is to create a custom Exception, and extend the RequestException, and in the constructor pass the message manually (to bypass this).
So something like this..

class MyRequestException extends \Saloon\Exceptions\Request\RequestException
{
    public function __construct(Response $response, ?string $message = null, int $code = 0, ?Throwable $previous = null)
    {
        $message ??= $response->body();

        parent::__construct($response, $message, $code, $previous);

        // Or to keep Saloons normal behaviour.
        // $this->maxBodyLength = mb_strlen($message ?? $response->body());
        //
        // parent::__construct($response, $message, $code, $previous);
    }
}

You will need to set your custom Exception, as shown here.
You don't necessarily need to extend the RequestException, but that's what I ended up doing.
