When saving things to the database with Prisma, many things can potentially go wrong. We need to indicate them to clients in ways that are actionable when they can correct them (e.g., status code
422
on bad input), or otherwise when they cannot (e.g., status code500
when things are really wrong on backend).We currently have a basic helper in place [
waspc/data/Generator/templates/server/src/utils.js
] that can check if anError
is a Prisma client error, and convert it to anHttpError
. It is used during the sign up flow [waspc/data/Generator/templates/server/src/routes/auth/signup.js
]. However, the mapping is incomplete. We need to thoroughly review https://www.prisma.io/docs/reference/api-reference/error-reference and determine what HTTP status code/message we should send from the controller to the frontend in each case.This may also require refactoring the existing helpers, and allowing more flexible uses.
