nestjsx/crud - how to change errors responses - nestjs

Question

I need to change the error response 404 error for exemple.
This is de case:
#Entity('role')
export class RoleEntity extends BaseEntity {
#PrimaryGeneratedColumn()
id: number;
#Column({ type: 'varchar', length: 100, nullable: false })
name: string;
}
#Injectable()
export class RoleService extends TypeOrmCrudService<RoleEntity> {
constructor(#InjectRepository(RoleEntity) repo) {
super(repo);
}
}
#Crud({
model: {
type: RoleEntity,
},
})
#Controller('role')
export class RoleController implements CrudController<RoleEntity> {
constructor(public service: RoleService) {}
}
When i try to get an id not created in the base i got the error
{
"statusCode": 404,
"message": "RoleEntitynot found",
"error": "Not Found"
}
I want to change this error to something like this:
{
"success": false,
"message": "The given id was not found in the database",
}
What is the best way to do this?

Answer 1

Override nestjs/crud getOneBase method (Doc nestjs/crud)
#Override('getOneBase')
getOneAndDoStuff(
#ParsedRequest() req: CrudRequest,
) {
// Catch below error and return your message
this.base.getOneBase(req)
return ...;
}

Answer 2

You can wrap the base call in try catch statement like below, by this you can override errors object.
#Override()
async getOne(#ParsedRequest() req: CrudRequest) {
try {
return await this.base.getOneBase(req);
} catch (error) {
throw new HttpException(
{
returnCode: error.response.statusCode,
message: error.response.message,
type: ResponseTypes[error.response.statusCode],
},
error.status
);
}
}
