Errors Enum - common parameters for cases

I have got sample Error enum in my application:



public enum APIError: Error 
case IncorrectArguments(message: String)
case MissingArgument(message: String)



And error handling looks like:



do 
return try next.respond(to: request)
catch let error as APIError
throw Abort(.badRequest, reason: error.message)



But I get compilation error in here saying: Value of type 'APIError' has no member 'message'.



I know I can get parameters by pattern matching, but I don't want to handle every case in exactly same way:



do 
return try next.respond(to: request)
catch APIError.MissingArgument(let message)
throw Abort(.badRequest, reason: message)
catch APIError.IncorrectArguments(let message)
throw Abort(.badRequest, reason: message)



In future there may be more APIErrors in enum and I don't want to handle each one using separate catch block, because everyone will be exactly the same.



Is there any way to handle these errors in some generic way?

  • You are throwing errors in catch. You'd want to throw error in a function and catch it in a Do..Catch

  • throw Abort is Vapor way to return response with given status and message.

You can define computed properties on an enum like so:



public enum APIError: Error 
case IncorrectArguments(message: String)
case MissingArgument(message: String)

var message: String
switch self
case .IncorrectArguments(let message): return message
case .MissingArgument(let message): return message





And call the message computed properties from your catch clouser like this:



do 
return try next.respond(to: request)
catch let error as APIError
throw Abort(.badRequest, reason: error.message)
