Functions

func Inflate

func Inflate(p *P)

Inflate sets some basic parameters on the problem, mostly the type for now

func RegisterError

func RegisterError(err error, p P)

RegisterError records an error -> P mapping, allowing the app to register specific errors that may occur in other packages to be rendered as a specific P instance.

For example, you might want to render any sql.ErrNoRows errors as a problem.NotFound, and you would do so by calling:

problem.RegisterError(sql.ErrNoRows, problem.NotFound) in you application initialization sequence

func Render

func Render(ctx context.Context, w http.ResponseWriter, p interface{})

Render writes a http response to `w`, compliant with the "Problem Details for HTTP APIs" RFC:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-http-problem-00

`p` is the problem, which may be either a concrete P struct, an implementor of the `HasProblem` interface, or an error. Any other value for `p` will panic.

Types

type HasProblem

type HasProblem interface {
	Problem() P
}

HasProblem types can be transformed into a problem. Implement it for custom errors.

type P

type P struct {
	Type     string                 `json:"type"`
	Title    string                 `json:"title"`
	Status   int                    `json:"status"`
	Detail   string                 `json:"detail,omitempty"`
	Instance string                 `json:"instance,omitempty"`
	Extras   map[string]interface{} `json:"extras,omitempty"`
}

P is a struct that represents an error response to be rendered to a connected client.

func MakeInvalidFieldProblem

func MakeInvalidFieldProblem(name string, reason error) *P

MakeInvalidFieldProblem is a helper function to make a BadRequest with extras

func (P) Error

func (p P) Error() string
