My project is configured with typescipt and open-api 3 specification.
I try to optimize my error handling, but the err parameter in the errorMiddleware is a plain js object.
Because of this, it is very hard or partly not possible to know, if the error is a validation error from openapi or another error.
It would be better, if the err has a specific type and not only is a object.
The type checking of the err could be something like this:
if (err instanceOf ValidationError) {}
initialize({ ... errorMiddleware: (err, req, res, next) => { ... } });My project is configured with typescipt and open-api 3 specification. I try to optimize my error handling, but the
