Simple concrete classes for error handling in JAXRS

Work in progress

JAXRS Error handler

Exceptions thrown by JAXRS are serialized to strings (JSON for example) but not in a nice format. This library provides error mapping to a standardized Errors object or list.

• Defines fixed error classes
• Provides simple runtime exception handling in JAXRS.

Fixed classes makes sure that all applications use the same format across services.

TODO add support for XML

Dependencies

Expected the jackson library on the classpath:

• com.fasterxml.jackson.jaxrs
• com.fasterxml.jackson.jaxrs.annotations

Usage

Include dependency:

dependencies {
    compile "com.wijdemans:jaxrs-jetty-error-handling:0.0.1"
}

Add to container:

class Main {
    
    private ResourceConfig createResourceConfig () {
        
        final ResourceConfig rc = new ResourceConfig();
        rc.register(JaxRsErrorMapper.class);
        
        return rc;
    }  
        
}
