🤔 Is there any way for handling JSON error? about fiber HOT 11 CLOSED

@1995parham, thanks for submitting your issue.

Fiber is really flexible, you could create your own error handling logic.
The status code defaults to 200 unless changed, you can remove that.

In Fiber v1.5.0 you can pass errors in the Next method.

package main

import "github.com/gofiber/fiber"

func main() {
  app := fiber.New()
  app.Post("/api/register", func (c *fiber.Ctx) {
    if err := c.JSON(&User); err != nil {
      c.Next(err)
    }
  })
  app.Get("/api/user", func (c *fiber.Ctx) {
    if err := c.JSON(&User); err != nil {
      c.Next(err)
    }
  })
  app.Put("/api/update", func (c *fiber.Ctx) {
    if err := c.JSON(&User); err != nil {
      c.Next(err)
    }
  })
  app.Use("/api", func(c *fiber.Ctx) {
    c.Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
    c.Status(500).Send(c.Error())
  })
  app.Listen(1337)
}

We are working on a better way to handle global errors.
Passing the err into c.Next(err) would be nice.
So you can retrieve the error from the Ctx later on with c.Error() for example.

PS: We added Next(err) & app.Recover(handler) & c.Error() #128

@1995parham thx for issue.

We're working around easy way to error handling right now on Fiber. Stay tuned! 😉

@koddr Thanks for your response 🙌 I will wait.

@Fenny I agree with your solution, we can return an error from the handler. If you want, I can create a PR for it.

I will create PR so we can work on it 🙌

@1995parham, me and @koddr are actually discussing some kind of recover feature.
This has nothing to do with the c.Next(err), but we would like to hear your thoughts on this.

package main

import (
	"./fiber"
)

func main() {
  app := fiber.New()
  
  app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) {
    panic("I panic")
  })
  
  // app.Panic, app.Error // not sure yet
  app.Recover(func(c *fiber.Ctx) {
    fmt.Println(c.Error())  // => "I panic"
    c.SendStatus(500)      // => 500 "Internal Server Error"
  })
  
  app.Listen(3000)
}

@Fenny I think to recover from panic in handlers is an excellent feature, and it would be useful in long-running applications. The proposed syntax is simple and useful.

@Fenny, sorry for bothering you again. I have checked the new API, and it was good. But is there any way to return an error from the handler, and it automatically passed to the Next method? Like handlers of echo.
