Features

Default Django Rest Framework exception handler return errors in different formats.

Examples: Response on raise exceptions.APIException.

{
  "detail": "A server error occurred."
}

Response on raise exceptions.ValidationError.

[
  "Invalid input."
]

Response on raise exceptions.ValidationError if error in field serializator.

{
  "email": [
    "This field is required."
  ]
}

Response on raise exceptions.ValidationError in serializator .validate() .

{
  "non_field_errors": [
    "Passwords does not match"
  ]
}

This greatly complicates error handling in the frontend. This package provide own format of errors.

{
  "status_code": 500,
  "errors": {
    "non_field_errors": [
      "A server error occurred."
    ]
  }
}
{
  "status_code": 400,
  "errors": {
    "non_field_errors": [
      "Invalid input."
    ]
  }
}
{
  "status_code": 400,
  "errors": {
    "email": [
      "This field is required."
    ]
  }
}
{
  "status_code": 400,
  "errors": {
    "non_field_errors": [
      "Passwords does not match"
    ]
  }
}

And this package handle default Python exceptions.

l = [1, 2, 3, 4]
l[10]
{
  "status_code": 500,
  "errors": {
    "non_field_errors": [
      "IndexError: list index out of range"
    ]
  }
}
