`fastapi_problem` is a set of exceptions and handlers for use in fastapi
applications to support easy error management and responses.
Each exception easily marshals to JSON based on the
[RFC9457](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9457.html) spec for use in api
errors.
Check the [docs](https://nrwldev.github.io/fastapi-problem) for more details.
## Custom Errors
Subclassing the convenience classes provide a simple way to consistently raise
the same error with detail/extras changing based on the raised context.
```python
from fastapi_problem.error import NotFoundProblem
class UserNotFoundError(NotFoundProblem):
title = "User not found."
raise UserNotFoundError(detail="detail")
```
```json
{
"type": "user-not-found",
"title": "User not found",
"detail": "detail",
"status": 404,
}
```
## Usage
```python
import fastapi
from fastapi_problem.handler import add_exception_handler, new_exception_handler
app = fastapi.FastAPI()
eh = new_exception_handler()
add_exception_handler(app, eh)
@app.get("/user")
async def get_user():
raise UserNotFoundError("No user found.")
```
```bash
$ curl localhost:8000/user
{
"type": "user-not-found",
"title": "User not found",
"detail": "No user found.",
"status": 404,
}
```
