HTTP status code within exception

HTTP status code within exception

[shorbachuk]

I just tried it. Its working really great, exactly what I needed.

[josephwoodward]

At the moment there isn't, but I'd be open to adding an overload to ReturnStatusCode(...)along the lines of:

ReturnStatusCode(Func<Exception, HttpStatusCode>)

[shorbachuk]

Cool, should I work on a PR or is this something you would like to take?

[josephwoodward]

I'm currently doing some work on the API so I can do it as a part of that 👍

[shorbachuk]

Any idea when to expect this enhancement?

[josephwoodward]

Just finishing off the last few bits (I'm working on a major release) so it should be done in the next few days.

[josephwoodward]

Thanks for your patience @shorbachuk,

I've now released a beta package which includes this functionality (it's included within a major version bump I was working on which includes some breaking changes, but they're just method renames). If you'd like to give it a try I'd love to hear how you get on with it.

The new version can be found here https://www.nuget.org/packages/GlobalExceptionHandler/4.0.0-beta1 and the release notes here.

I tried the beta. Agree with all the renames, they make a lot more sense.

I had to do:

x.Map<HttpStatusCodeException>().ToStatusCode(ex => (int)((HttpStatusCodeException)ex).StatusCode);

which is maybe not as clean as I would like, but for sure solves my problem. Thank you

[josephwoodward]

I'd love to be able to pass the generic type passed in at Map<T> all the way down to .ToStatusCode(Func<T, int> x) but unfortunately my GenericFu isn't up to scratch. I'd definitely welcome a PR if you can see some options for making this better?

Another option would also be to add the following overload for those that are using (by choice or necessity) System.Net.HttpStatusCode which would at the very least remove the need to cast the status code to an int?

IHandledFormatters ToStatusCode(Func<Exception, int> statusCodeResolver);
IHandledFormatters ToStatusCode(Func<Exception, HttpStatusCode> statusCodeResolver); // Could add this overload?

The way I see it is it's still in beta so now is the time to make any changes.

[josephwoodward]

#25 also adds the overloads to stop people having to cast System.Net.HttpStatusCode to an int, this seams especially helpful in this instance when you can't control the property type within an exception thrown.

[josephwoodward]

@shorbachuk New version with these changes has been uploaded to NuGet. Give it a whirl and let me know what you think.

[josephwoodward]

Great, I'll close this off then. Thanks for the feature suggestion(s)!

[shorbachuk]

Any plans to take this out of beta?

[josephwoodward]

@shorbachuk Yeah, can do it this weekend.

[josephwoodward]

@shorbachuk Just realised I didn't do this! Will do it today, I promise!

Edit: I presume it's all working for you and you've not run into any issues?
