Installation

Via Composer

composer require rawnod/laravel-exceptions

Manual Installation

If you're installing manually, add the package to your composer.json:

{
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "path",
            "url": "./packages/rawnod/laravel-exceptions"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "rawnod/laravel-exceptions": "*"
    }
}

Then run:

composer install

Configuration

Publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=exceptions-config

This will create config/exceptions.php where you can customize exception handling behavior.

Setup

Automatic Registration (Recommended)

By default, the package automatically registers the exception handler. No manual configuration is required!

The handler will automatically work for all routes matching the api_pattern (default: api/*).

To disable automatic registration, set in your .env:

EXCEPTIONS_AUTO_REGISTER=false

Manual Registration (Optional)

If you disabled automatic registration, you can manually register the exception handler in your bootstrap/app.php:

use Rawnod\Exceptions\ExceptionRenderer;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Configuration\Exceptions;

return Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))
    // ... other configuration
    ->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions): void {
        $exceptions->render(function (\Throwable $e, $request) {
            if ($request->is('api/*')) {
                return app(ExceptionRenderer::class)->render($e);
            }
        });
    })->create();

Supported Exceptions

The package handles the following exception types:

• HttpResponseException - Custom HTTP responses
• ModelNotFoundException - Eloquent model not found
• NotFoundHttpException - Route not found
• MethodNotAllowedHttpException - HTTP method not allowed
• ValidationException - Form validation errors
• AuthenticationException - Unauthenticated requests
• AuthorizationException - Unauthorized access
• InvalidFilterQuery - Spatie QueryBuilder filter errors
• InvalidIncludeQuery - Spatie QueryBuilder include errors
• InvalidSortQuery - Spatie QueryBuilder sort errors
• InvalidFieldQuery - Spatie QueryBuilder field errors
• HttpExceptionInterface - All other HTTP exceptions
• Generic exceptions - Fallback for unhandled exceptions

Usage

Once installed and configured, the exception handler will automatically catch and format all exceptions for API routes.

Language Files

The package includes built-in translations in English and Arabic. Translations are automatically loaded from the package.

Available Translation Keys

• exceptions::exceptions.model_not_found - Model not found message
• exceptions::exceptions.resource_not_found - Resource not found message
• exceptions::exceptions.method_not_allowed - HTTP method not allowed
• exceptions::exceptions.validation_failed - Validation failed message
• exceptions::exceptions.unauthenticated - Authentication required
• exceptions::exceptions.unauthorized - Authorization failed
• exceptions::exceptions.server_error - Server error message
• exceptions::exceptions.http_exception - Generic HTTP exception
• exceptions::exceptions.bad_request - Bad request message

Customizing Translations

You can publish and customize the language files:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=exceptions-lang

This will copy the language files to lang/vendor/exceptions/ where you can customize them.

Alternatively, you can override translations in your application's language files by creating files at:

• lang/en/vendor/exceptions/exceptions.php
• lang/ar/vendor/exceptions/exceptions.php

Response Structure

All exceptions return a consistent JSON structure using the rawnoq/laravel-api-response package format:

{
    "success": false,
    "message": "Error message",
    "data": null,
    "errors": {}
}

Requirements

• PHP 8.2+
• Laravel 11.0+ or 12.0+
