Error Handling

You can handle errors globally, or per route when you need custom behavior.

Global internal error handler

app.setInternalErrorHandler((req, res, error) => {
    res.status(500).send({
        source: 'global-handler',
        message: error.message,
    });
});

Route-specific handleError

import { Route } from 'owebjs';

export default class RouteWithCustomError extends Route {
    handle() {
        throw new Error('route-specific-error');
    }

    handleError(_req, res, err) {
        return res.status(409).send({
            source: 'route-handleError',
            message: err.message,
        });
    }
}

Use route-level handling when you want endpoint-specific status codes or payload shape.
