NAME

error_xml - Convert 500 errors to XML and process through XSLT

SYNOPSIS

  Plugin error_xml
  ErrorStylesheet /path/to/error.xsl
  # optional
  StackTrace On

DESCRIPTION

This plugin turns AxKit exceptions into XML structures to be transformed via XSLT and output to the browser. Simply specify an error.xsl to transform with, or use the one provided with AxKit (in demo/error.xsl).

If you wish to include a full stack trace, add the config as listed below.

Note: This plugin does add some overhead so it is suggested to only use it in development.

FORMAT

The error XML is in the following format:

  <?xml version="1.0"?>
  <error>
    <file>./plugins/foosle</file>
    <msg>Can't locate object method "foobar" via package 
      "AxKit2::Plugin::foosle" at ./plugins/foosle line 37.
    </msg>
    <stack_trace>
      <bt level="0">
        <package>AxKit2::Plugin::foosle</package>
        <file>./plugins/foosle</file>
        <line>37</line>
        <subroutine>AxKit2::Plugin::error_xml::__ANON__(...)</subroutine>
      </bt>
      <bt level="1">
        <package>AxKit2::Plugin</package>
        <file>lib/AxKit2/Plugin.pm</file>
        <line>35</line>
        <subroutine>AxKit2::Plugin::foosle::hook_xmlresponse(...)</subroutine>
      </bt>
      ...
    </stacktrace>
  </error>
