Redirect on api error

[4ware]

Hi!

When receiving an error from the api, like when the login is rejected, you just return {}, which isn't very helpfull.

How would you do it so that one could display an error to the client and rerender the form?

Cheers, Kai

One possible option, is to put any errors in the redux state. Then in your form component, you can check if there are any errors and display a message

Would you mind to update the code for this? I don't know how... :(

Sure. I'll code it up tomorrow

I coded it in a separate branch: https://github.com/benawad/react-menu-monkey-client/tree/handle-login-error

I added error handling for the login page. So if a user tries to login with an invalid email or password it will stop them. I recommend taking a look at this commit: c8cab6d

It shows exactly what I changed.
