• What is the current behavior? REopt API returns the error messages from REopt.jl, but doesnt return an indicator to determine if the error returned contains a stacktrace or not. Knowing if a stacktrace is returned can make it easier to handle REopt errors programmatically and in REopt web tool UI

• If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem via https://plnkr.co or similar (you can use this template as a starting point: http://plnkr.co/edit/tpl:AvJOMERrnz94ekVua0u5).

• What is the expected behavior? REopt API is able to pass a true/false to denote if an error response from REopt.jl contains a stacktrace or not.

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? Knowing if a stacktrace is returned can make it easier to handle REopt errors programmatically and in REopt web tool UI

• Please tell us about your environment:

  • REopt API Version: X.X.X
  • Operating System: [all | TypeScript X.X | ES6/7 | ES5 | Dart]
  • Python version: 3.x
  • Julia version: 1.x

• Other information (e.g. detailed explanation, stacktraces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for us to have context, eg. stackoverflow, gitter, etc)

• Successfully tested that if an unhandled REopt error message is returned has_stacktrace is false. If there are no errors, the has_stacktrace is set to false.
• Tested that a response with only warnings and no errors is also returned with has_stacktrace = false.

I could use some help in testing and validating that handled errors. Do we know any existing means passing through any Django validations and triggering a handled REopt error?
