[Express] Add error handling middleware for express
Express app:
import cors from 'cors';
import express, { Application } from 'express';
import routes from './routes';
import * as middlewares from './middleware';
const app: Application = express();
app.use(cors());
app.use(express.json());
app.use(middlewares.logger);
app.use('/api', routes);
// add error handling middleware to catch errors
app.use(middlewares.unknownEndPoint);
app.use(middlewares.errorHandler);
export default app;
Middlewares:
import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import { error as logError } from './logger';
function logger(req: Request, _res: Response, next: NextFunction): void {
if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'test') {
console.info(`${req.method} ${req.url}`);
}
next();
}
function unknownEndPoint(_req: Request, res: Response, _next: NextFunction): void {
res.status(404).send({ error: 'Unknown endpoint' });
}
function errorHandler(e: Error, _req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) {
logError(e.message);
switch (e.name) {
case 'SequelizeForeignKeyConstraintError':
return res.status(500).json({ error: 'Station Id not exists in the database' });
case 'Missing data':
return res.status(400).json({ error: e.message });
case 'Invalid data':
return res.status(400).json({ error: e.message });
case 'Unreachable data':
return res.status(404).json({ error: e.message });
default:
return next(e);
}
}
export {
logger,
unknownEndPoint,
