How to catch Exceptions within AfterMiddleware in Lumen? - exception

Question

Lumen 5.4.
class AfterMiddleware
{
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
try {
return $next($request);
} catch (IpValidationException $e) {
return response()->json($e->getMessage(), 422);
} catch (RemoteException $e) {
return response()->json($e->getMessage(), 503);
} catch (BaseException $e) {
return response()->json($e->getMessage(), 400);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
return response()->json($e->getMessage(), $e->getCode());
}
}
}
After the exception is raised, the $next($request) goes to the following function in Laravel\Lumen\Routing:
/**
* Get the initial slice to begin the stack call.
*
* #param \Closure $destination
* #return \Closure
*/
protected function prepareDestination(BaseClosure $destination)
{
return function ($passable) use ($destination) {
try {
return call_user_func($destination, $passable);
} catch (Exception $e) {
return $this->handleException($passable, $e);
} catch (Throwable $e) {
return $this->handleException($passable, new FatalThrowableError($e));
}
};
}
And it's catched there, so I my AfterMiddleware is useless. Any ideas how to circumvent it? I've found a solution and moved all the exceptions to render() in my Handler class, but it is much more convienient to use middleware.

Answer 1

I haven't tried this, but from Lumen's code, I think it is possible.
The handleException function invoked from prepareDestination checks if the ExceptionHanlder is bound to the container or not. If it is not, it is throwing the exception.
protected function handleException($passable, Exception $e)
{
if (! $this->container->bound(ExceptionHandler::class) || ! $passable instanceof Request) {
throw $e;
}
$handler = $this->container->make(ExceptionHandler::class);
$handler->report($e);
return $handler->render($passable, $e);
}
So, try by removing the below ExceptionHandler binding from bootstrap/app.php
$app->singleton(
Illuminate\Contracts\Debug\ExceptionHandler::class,
App\Exceptions\Handler::class
);

This is how I handle mine, its working on Lumen 5.5.* and php 7.1.
