Swing Error provides custom error handlers for various HTTP status codes in a Django application. Each error handler is designed to return a custom response with additional functionality and logging capabilities. The custom error handlers cover the following HTTP status codes:
- 400 Bad Request
- 401 Unauthorized
- 403 Forbidden
- 404 Not Found
- 405 Method Not Allowed
- 408 Request Timeout
- 410 Gone
- 429 Too Many Requests
- 500 Internal Server Error
- Clone the repository to your local machine.
- Add the custom error handlers to your Django project.
Create a file named responses.py in your Django application directory and define custom response classes for each HTTP status code.
Example for HTTP 400:
# responses.py
from django.http import HttpResponse
from typing import Any, Union
import logging
class Http400Response(HttpResponse):
status_code = 400
def __init__(self, content: Union[bytes, str] = b'', *args: Any, **kwargs: Any) -> None:
super().__init__(content, *args, **kwargs)
self.log_error()
def log_error(self) -> None:
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.error(f"400 Bad Request: Response initialized with content: {self.content}")Repeat this for other status codes (401, 403, 404, 405, 408, 410, 429, 500) as shown in the initial setup.
Update your urls.py file to include the custom error handlers.
# urls.py
from django.urls import path
from django.conf.urls import handler400, handler401, handler403, handler404, handler405, handler408, handler410, handler429, handler500
from .responses import (
Http400Response, Http401Response, Http403Response, Http404Response,
Http405Response, Http408Response, Http410Response, Http429Response, Http500Response
)
from .views import home_view, another_view
urlpatterns = [
path('', home_view, name='home'),
path('another/', another_view, name='another'),
]
handler400 = lambda request, exception=None: Http400Response("Bad Request: Invalid request.")
handler401 = lambda request, exception=None: Http401Response("Unauthorized: Authentication is required.")
handler403 = lambda request, exception=None: Http403Response("Forbidden: You do not have permission to access this page.")
handler404 = lambda request, exception=None: Http404Response("Not Found: The requested resource was not found.")
handler405 = lambda request, exception=None: Http405Response("Method Not Allowed: This endpoint only supports certain methods.")
handler408 = lambda request, exception=None: Http408Response("Request Timeout: The server timed out waiting for the request.")
handler410 = lambda request, exception=None: Http410Response("Gone: The requested resource is no longer available.")
handler429 = lambda request, exception=None: Http429Response("Too Many Requests: You have exceeded your request limit.")
handler500 = lambda request: Http500Response("Internal Server Error: An unexpected error occurred.")Create custom templates for each error handler in your templates directory.
Example for 400 error (templates/errors/400.html):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>{{ title }}</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>{{ header }}</h1>
<p>{{ message }}</p>
<a href="/">{{ redirect }}</a>
</body>
</html>Repeat this for other status codes (401, 403, 404, 405, 408, 410, 429, 500) with appropriate content.
Ensure that the custom error handlers are invoked correctly by triggering the respective errors in your application. For example, you can test a 404 error by accessing a non-existent URL.
In your views, you can use the custom response classes to return specific error responses as needed. For example:
from django.shortcuts import render
from .responses import Http400Response, Http404Response
def some_view(request):
if some_condition:
return Http400Response("Bad Request: Invalid data.")
if another_condition:
return Http404Response("Not Found: The requested resource was not found.")
return render(request, 'some_template.html')Made with ❤️ by Scape Agency
