django raisable http exceptions

What is django_http_exceptions?

It is raisable exceptions for your django views.

What is it good for?

It makes this

def some_function():
    raise SomeError

def view(request):
   try:
       response = some_function()
   except SomeError:
       response = HttpResponse(status=403)
   return response

into this

from django_http_exceptions import HTTPExceptions
def some_function():
    raise HTTPExceptions.FORBIDDEN # HTTPExceptions.from_status(403)

def view(request):
    return some_function() 
    

meaning that is saves you from boilerplate code.

It also allows you to hook default views to all possible http response codes, meaning that you can use more than the 5-6 django provided error handlers.

How to use it?

Just two middlewares, lower the better, and you are done.

MIDDLEWARE = [
    ...,
    'django_http_exceptions.middleware.ExceptionHandlerMiddleware',
    'django_http_exceptions.middleware.ThreadLocalRequestMiddleware',
    ...
]

And that is it, you are ready to raise your http exceptions.

What else?

HTTPExceptions

Base class that provides all the exceptions to be raised.

HTTPExceptions.from_status(status)

In case you don't want to write
HTTPExceptions.REQUEST_HEADER_FIELDS_TOO_LARGE
You can just write
HTTPExceptions.from_status(431)

HTTPExceptions.BASE_EXCEPTON

The base exception for all http exception

HTTPExceptions.register_base_exception(exception)

Given that exception is a class that inherits from HTTPException you can customize the exceptions. Keep in mind that HTTPException is an Exception subclass itself.

HTTPExceptions.BASE_EXCEPTION.with_response(response)

This is the method for raising exceptions with a response. You can put any response in this method while raising your error.

Let's say you have a view named index, then this example would return what index function would return, but with status code 410
HTTPExceptions.GONE.with_response(index(request))

HTTPExceptions.BASE_EXCEPTION.with_content(content)

This method allow to raise an HTTPException with a custom message (can be either str or bytes).

For instance, HTTPExceptions.NOT_FOUND.with_content("The user named 'username' could not be found") would return something equivalent to HttpResponse("The user named 'username' could not be found", status=404).

HTTPExceptions.BASE_EXCEPTION.register_default_view(view)

view is a function that takes only one argument, request when you register a default view to an error class with HTTPExceptions.NOT_FOUND.register_defaul_view(view) when HTTPExceptions.GONE is raised it returns the view function, but again, with 404 status code. If the error has been raised with .with_response, that is used instead.

get_current_request

This function gets you the current request anywhere in your django application, making it easier for your dynamic error responses to be created, like in the HTTPExceptions.GONE.with_response(index(request)) example.

ExceptionHandlerMiddleware

Just there for to exception handling to work.

ThreadLocalRequestMiddleware

Just there for to get_current_request to work.

errorify(error)

Decorator that turns a view (both class and function) into an http error

@errorify(HTTPExceptions.PAYMENT_REQUIRED)
class Subscribe(TemplateView):
    template = SUBSCRIBE_TEMPLATE
