<h1>Error Handling</h1>
|
|
|
59 |
|
|
|
60 |
<p>CodeIgniter lets you build error reporting into your applications using the functions described below.
|
|
|
61 |
In addition, it has an error logging class that permits error and debugging messages to be saved as text files.</p>
|
|
|
62 |
|
|
|
63 |
<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> By default, CodeIgniter displays all PHP errors. You might
|
|
|
64 |
wish to change this behavior once your development is complete. You'll find the <dfn>error_reporting()</dfn>
|
|
|
65 |
function located at the top of your main index.php file. Disabling error reporting will NOT prevent log files
|
|
|
66 |
from being written if there are errors.</p>
|
|
|
67 |
|
|
|
68 |
<p>Unlike most systems in CodeIgniter, the error functions are simple procedural interfaces that are available
|
|
|
69 |
globally throughout the application. This approach permits error messages to get triggered without having to worry
|
|
|
70 |
about class/function scoping.</p>
|
|
|
71 |
|
|
|
72 |
<p>The following functions let you generate errors:</p>
|
|
|
73 |
|
|
|
74 |
<h2>show_error('<var>message</var>')</h2>
|
|
|
75 |
<p>This function will display the error message supplied to it using the following error template:</p>
|
|
|
76 |
<p><dfn>application/errors/</dfn><kbd>error_general.php</kbd></p>
|
|
|
77 |
|
|
|
78 |
<h2>show_404('<var>page</var>')</h2>
|
|
|
79 |
<p>This function will display the 404 error message supplied to it using the following error template:</p>
|
|
|
80 |
<p><dfn>application/errors/</dfn><kbd>error_404.php</kbd></p>
|
|
|
81 |
|
|
|
82 |
<p>The function expects the string passed to it to be the file path to the page that isn't found.
|
|
|
83 |
Note that CodeIgniter automatically shows 404 messages if controllers are not found.</p>
|
|
|
84 |
|
|
|
85 |
|
|
|
86 |
<h2>log_message('<var>level</var>', '<samp>message</samp>')</h2>
|
|
|
87 |
|
|
|
88 |
<p>This function lets you write messages to your log files. You must supply one of three "levels"
|
|
|
89 |
in the first parameter, indicating what type of message it is (debug, error, info), with the message
|
|
|
90 |
itself in the second parameter. Example:</p>
|
|
|
91 |
|
|
|
92 |
<code>
|
|
|
93 |
if ($some_var == "")<br />
|
|
|
94 |
{<br />
|
|
|
95 |
log_message('error', 'Some variable did not contain a value.');<br />
|
|
|
96 |
}<br />
|
|
|
97 |
else<br />
|
|
|
98 |
{<br />
|
|
|
99 |
log_message('debug', 'Some variable was correctly set');<br />
|
|
|
100 |
}<br />
|
|
|
101 |
<br />
|
|
|
102 |
log_message('info', 'The purpose of some variable is to provide some value.');<br />
|
|
|
103 |
</code>
|
|
|
104 |
|
|
|
105 |
<p>There are three message types:</p>
|
|
|
106 |
|
|
|
107 |
<ol>
|
|
|
108 |
<li>Error Messages. These are actual errors, such as PHP errors or user errors.</li>
|
|
|
109 |
<li>Debug Messages. These are messages that assist in debugging. For example, if a class has been initialized, you could log this as debugging info.</li>
|
|
|
110 |
<li>Informational Messages. These are the lowest priority messages, simply giving information regarding some process. CodeIgniter doesn't natively generate any info messages but you may want to in your application.</li>
|
|
|
111 |
</ol>
|
|
|
112 |
|
|
|
113 |
|
|
|
114 |
<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> In order for the log file to actually be written, the
|
|
|
115 |
"logs" folder must be writable. In addition, you must set the "threshold" for logging.
|
|
|
116 |
You might, for example, only want error messages to be logged, and not the other two types.
|
|
|
117 |
If you set it to zero logging will be disabled.</p>
