This section explains the error handler middleware in our API tools, which is designed to manage and respond to errors that occur during the processing of API requests.

Features

  • Robust Error Handling: The middleware is designed to catch and respond to errors effectively, ensuring the stability of the API.
  • Customizable Responses: You can define custom responses for different types of errors to provide more informative feedback to the client.
  • Logging: Errors are logged for further analysis and debugging purposes.

Usage

To use the error handler middleware, follow these steps:

  1. Install Middleware: First, install the middleware in your project.

    npm install api-tools-error-handler
    
  2. Configure Middleware: Configure the middleware in your API settings.

    const errorHandler = require('api-tools-error-handler');
    
    app.use(errorHandler());
    
  3. Customize Error Handling: You can customize the error handling by defining a custom error handler function.

    const errorHandler = require('api-tools-error-handler');
    
    app.use(errorHandler({
        onHandleError: (err, req, res) => {
            // Custom error handling logic
            res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal Server Error' });
        }
    }));
    

Examples

Here are some examples of error handling scenarios:

  • 404 Not Found: If a requested resource is not found, the middleware will return a 404 error.
