Node.js Tutorial => Error handling in Express

Example

In Express, you can define unified error handler for handling errors occurred in application. Define then handler at the end of all routes and logic code.

Example

var express = require('express');
var app = express();

//GET /names/john
app.get('/names/:name', function(req, res, next){
    if (req.params.name == 'john'){
        return res.send('Valid Name');
    } else{
        next(new Error('Not valid name'));    //pass to error handler
    }
});

//error handler
app.use(function(err, req, res, next){
    console.log(err.stack);    // e.g., Not valid name
    return res.status(500).send('Internal Server Occured');
});

app.listen(3000);
