Question - Check if a specific sheet exists and fallback to a default one

[Voronchuk]

Hi @pdgonzalez872 personally I'm getting {:error, %GSS.GoogleApiError{message: "invalid google API status code 400"}} with any request on an invalid list.

I have added a new GSS.Spreadsheet.sheets(pid) method, so you can make smth like that:

list_name = "missing"
{:ok, pid} = GSS.Spreadsheet.Supervisor.spreadsheet(spreadsheet_id, list_name: list_name)
sheets = GSS.Spreadsheet.sheets(pid)
{:ok, pid} =
  case Map.get(sheets, list_name) do
     nil ->
         GSS.Spreadsheet.Supervisor.spreadsheet(spreadsheet_id, list_name: "fallback")
     _ ->
        {:ok, pid}
  end

Update:
I was able to use catch and match against the error correctly.

I don't quite like this solution though, so my question still stands. Thanks for your time.
