:rocket: how to let handlers do their job ?
add ApiErrorHandler trait to ExceptionHandler located in app\Exceptions\Handler.php:
<?php
namespace App\Exceptions;
use hamidreza2005\LaravelApiErrorHandler\Traits\ApiErrorHandler;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Exceptions\Handler as ExceptionHandler;
use Throwable;
class Handler extends ExceptionHandler
{
use ApiErrorHandler;
/**
* A list of the exception types that are not reported. * * @var array
*/
protected $dontReport = [
//
];
/**
* A list of the inputs that are never flashed for validation exceptions. * * @var array
*/
protected $dontFlash = [
'password',
'password_confirmation',
];
/**
* Register the exception handling callbacks for the application. * * @return void
*/
public function register()
{
//
}
public function render($request, Throwable $e)
{
return $this->handle($this->prepareException($e));
}
}
Register app\Exceptions\Handler.php in AppServiceProvider:
<?php
namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Debug\ExceptionHandler;
use App\Exceptions\Handler;
class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
/**
* Register any application services.
*/
public function register(): void
{
$this->app->singleton(
ExceptionHandler::class,
Handler::class
);
}
/**
* Bootstrap any application services.
*/
public function boot(): void
{
//
}
}
Make Your Own Exception Handler!
if you want to make your own handler your class has to extend hamidreza2005\LaravelApiErrorHandler\Handlers\ExceptionHandler
i.e:
<?php
class MyException extends ExceptionHandler
{
public function handleStatusCode():void
{
$this->statusCode = 499;
}
public function handleMessage():void
{
$this->message = "My Message";
}
}
