Documentation

Current Error Types:

GeneralError: 500
BadRequest: 400
NotAuthenticated: 401
Forbidden: 403
NotFound: 404
Timeout: 409
Conflict: 409
PaymentError: 409
Unprocessable: 422

Pro Tip: Feathers service adapters (ie. mongodb, memory, etc.) already emit the appropriate errors for you. :-)

Usage:

var feathers = require('feathers');
var errors = require('feathers-errors');
var app = feathers();

var userService = {
  find: function(params, callback) {

    // If you were to create an error yourself.
    callback(new this.app.errors.NotFound('User does not exist'));

    // You can also simply do something like this if you
    // just want to fire back a simple 500 error with your
    // custom message.
    // 
    // callback('A generic server error');
  },

  setup: function(app){
    this.app = app;
  }
};

app.configure(errors())
   .use('/users', userService)
   .use(errors.handler);

404 Handling:

We have conveniently created a basic 404 middleware as well. To use it:

var feathers = require('feathers');
var errors = require('feathers-errors');
var app = feathers();

app.configure(errors())
   .use('/users', userService)
   .use(errors.missing) // your 404 handler
   .use(errors.handler);
