[nitro] H3 error is not forwarded from an import

[atinux]

It seems the H3 error is not detected when used from another file.

Reproduction: https://codesandbox.io/s/shy-tdd-7oe13?file=/server/api/fails.ts

Works: https://7oe13.sse.codesandbox.io/api/works
Fails: https://7oe13.sse.codesandbox.io/api/fails

The difference is just between return createError and throw createError. The first one returns the error object as JSON but no error is ever thrown.

As a feature, we can support returning an error object for h3 but indeed it works as expected. (unjs/h3#28)

I see, it would be nice to have a different error page for api (sending back json).

@atinux It happens when using curl or JSON client (https://github.com/nuxt/framework/blob/0e93d752fd128dd93e1f59c35ac8d4a95ff0aebb/packages/nitro/src/runtime/server/error.ts#L11) same as nuxt2 but would be nice idea indeed passing formatted JSON object to error page :)

[atinux]

That would be great indeed 😀

Hmm looking again, we have statusCode as header, statusMessage as the first line of message and rest of stack. Errors seem okay and not missing anything from json version but Internal Server Error

Will be closed with linked renovate PR - see unjs/h3@991fcff.
