Create HTTP errors for Express, Koa, Connect, etc. with ease. | |
## Install | |
This is a [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) module available through the | |
[npm registry](https://www.npmjs.com/). Installation is done using the | |
[`npm install` command](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-npm-packages-locally): | |
```console | |
$ npm install http-errors | |
``` | |
## Example | |
```js | |
var createError = require('http-errors') | |
var express = require('express') | |
var app = express() | |
app.use(function (req, res, next) { | |
if (!req.user) return next(createError(401, 'Please login to view this page.')) | |
next() | |
}) | |
``` | |
## API | |
This is the current API, currently extracted from Koa and subject to change. | |
### Error Properties | |
- `expose` - can be used to signal if `message` should be sent to the client, | |
defaulting to `false` when `status` >= 500 | |
- `headers` - can be an object of header names to values to be sent to the | |
client, defaulting to `undefined`. When defined, the key names should all | |
be lower-cased | |
- `message` - the traditional error message, which should be kept short and all | |
single line | |
- `status` - the status code of the error, mirroring `statusCode` for general | |
compatibility | |
- `statusCode` - the status code of the error, defaulting to `500` | |
### createError([status], [message], [properties]) | |
Create a new error object with the given message `msg`. | |
The error object inherits from `createError.HttpError`. | |
```js | |
var err = createError(404, 'This video does not exist!') | |
``` | |
- `status: 500` - the status code as a number | |
- `message` - the message of the error, defaulting to node's text for that status code. | |
- `properties` - custom properties to attach to the object | |
### createError([status], [error], [properties]) | |
Extend the given `error` object with `createError.HttpError` | |
properties. This will not alter the inheritance of the given | |
`error` object, and the modified `error` object is the | |
return value. | |
<!-- eslint-disable no-redeclare --> | |
```js | |
fs.readFile('foo.txt', function (err, buf) { | |
if (err) { | |
if (err.code === 'ENOENT') { | |
var httpError = createError(404, err, { expose: false }) | |
} else { | |
var httpError = createError(500, err) | |
} | |
} | |
}) | |
``` | |
- `status` - the status code as a number | |
- `error` - the error object to extend | |
- `properties` - custom properties to attach to the object | |
### createError.isHttpError(val) | |
Determine if the provided `val` is an `HttpError`. This will return `true` | |
if the error inherits from the `HttpError` constructor of this module or | |
matches the "duck type" for an error this module creates. All outputs from | |
the `createError` factory will return `true` for this function, including | |
if an non-`HttpError` was passed into the factory. | |
### new createError\[code || name\](\[msg]\)) | |
Create a new error object with the given message `msg`. | |
The error object inherits from `createError.HttpError`. | |
```js | |
var err = new createError.NotFound() | |
``` | |
- `code` - the status code as a number | |
- `name` - the name of the error as a "bumpy case", i.e. `NotFound` or `InternalServerError`. | |
