The middleware will automatically mask any value which key contains key, secret, token, password.

Quick start

See example application in examples/ directory of this repository.

Usage

To render a beautiful exception page you need to install a StarceptionMiddleware middleware to your application.

The middleware will work only in debug mode so don't forget to set debug=True for local development.

Note, to catch at many exceptions as possible the middleware has to be the first one in the stack.

import typing

from starlette.applications import Starlette
from starlette.middleware import Middleware
from starlette.requests import Request
from starlette.routing import Route

from starception import StarceptionMiddleware


async def index_view(request: Request) -> typing.NoReturn:
    raise TypeError('Oops, something really went wrong...')


app = Starlette(
    debug=True,
    routes=[Route('/', index_view)],
    middleware=[
        Middleware(StarceptionMiddleware),
        # other middleware go here
    ],
)

Integration with FastAPI

Create a FastAPI exception handler and register it with your app:

import typing

from fastapi import FastAPI, Request

from starception import StarceptionMiddleware

app = FastAPI(debug=True)
app.add_middleware(StarceptionMiddleware)  # must be the first one!


@app.route('/')
async def index_view(request: Request) -> typing.NoReturn:
    raise TypeError('Oops, something really went wrong...')

Solution hints

If exception class has solution attribute then its content will be used as a solution hint.

class WithHintError(Exception):
    solution = (
        'The connection to the database cannot be established. '
        'Either the database server is down or connection credentials are invalid.'
    )
