EggBornJS unifies the return result of API Routes. It injects the following methods into the object of ctx:

Name Description
ctx.success return successful result
ctx.successMore return successful result which is paged
ctx.fail return error result
ctx.throw throw exception

ctx.success

Return the successful data, which is usually invoked in Controller

const res = 'done';
this.ctx.success(res);

The result is：

{
  "code": 0,
  "message": "Success",
  "data": "done"
}

ctx.successMore

Return the successful data with paged info, which is usually invoked in Controller

For example, read the first page, 10 items per page:

const page = { index: 0, size: 10 };
const items = [
  { id: 1, name: 'name1' },
  { id: 2, name: 'name2' }
];
this.ctx.successMore(items, page.index, page.size);

The result is:

{
  "code": 0,
  "message": "Success",
  "data": {
    "list": [
      {
         "id": 1,
         "name": "name1"
      },
      {
         "id": 2,
         "name": "name2"
      }
    ],
    "index": 2,
    "finished": true
  }
}
Name Description
data.list the list of data
data.index list offset, used to read next page data
data.finished idendify whether the list data has been read completely. If so, the next page will not be read any more

ctx.fail

Return the error result, which is usually invoked in Controller

Definition of Error Code

EggBornJS is compatible with HTTP error codes, such as 403, 404, etc. In addition, you can customize the new error codes and the corresponding error messages

src/suite-vendor/test-party/modules/test-party/backend/src/config/errors.js

// error code should start from 1001
module.exports = {
  1001: 'Error Test',
};

Error Messages also support i18n. You only need to add corresponding language resources

src/suite-vendor/test-party/modules/test-party/backend/src/config/locale/zh-cn.js

module.exports = {
  'Error Test': '错误测试',
};

Return error result

Same Module

this.ctx.fail(1001);

Across Module

this.ctx.fail.module('test-party',1001);

The Result

{
    "code": 1001,
    "message": "错误测试"
}

ctx.throw

Throw exception, and return the error message to frontend

Definition of Error Code

Same as ctx.fail

Throw exception

Same Module

this.ctx.throw(1001);

Across Module

this.ctx.throw.module('test-party',1001);

The Result

{
    "code": 1001,
    "message": "错误测试",
    "stack": "Error: 错误测试\n    at ErrorClass.throw ...",
    "name": "Error",
    "status": 500
}
