express-json-error

An error handler for JSON APIs, meant to be used with http-errors-style errors.

Example

import jsonError from 'express-json-error';

const app = express()
	.get(...);

app.use(jsonError);
// or with options configured..
app.use(jsonError({ showStackTrace: true } | {} | undefined));

app.listen(...);

API

after your routes:

app.use(jsonError);

app.use(jsonError(options | {} | undefined));

Options

showStackTrace

• Determines whether the response should contain the error stack trace.
• By default, stack trace is only included when the environment variable NODE_ENV is "development".

Errors

4xx errors are exposed to the client. Properties exposed are:

• message
• type
• name
• code
• status

5xx errors are not exposed to the client. Instead, they are given a generic message as well as the type.
