Handling Errors

This package returns errors that are more readable than Elasticsearch’s default responses. And embeds helpful metadata to help elucidate the issue.

---

QueryException

The QueryException class will be thrown when a query fails to be executed by the Elasticsearch client. This will account for most errors.

The message will be extracted from the verbose Elasticsearch response and the details will be stored in the Exception’s details property.

Example

Where the manufacturer.location field has not been mapped as a geo field:

use PDPhilip\Elasticsearch\DSL\exceptions\QueryException;

try {
    return Product::where('status', 2)->filterGeoPoint('manufacturer.location', '100km', [0, 0])->get();
} catch (QueryException $e) {
    return $e->getDetails();
}

Error Message will be: 400 Bad Request: all shards failed - failed to find geo field [manufacturer.location]

And $e->getDetails() returns:
