Error Handling for REST with Spring & SpringBoot

Overview

Before Spring 3.2, the two main approaches to handling exceptions in a Spring MVC application were: HandlerExceptionResolver or the @ExceptionHandler annotation. Both of these have some clear downsides.

After 3.2 we now have the new @ControllerAdvice annotation to address the limitations of the previous two solutions.

All of these do have one thing in common – they deal with the separation of concerns very well. The app can throw exception normally to indicate a failure of some kind – exceptions which will then be handled separately.

Solution 1 – The Controller level @ExceptionHandler

The New @ControllerAdvice (Spring 3.2 And Above)

Spring 3.2 brings support for a global @ExceptionHandler with the new @ControllerAdvice annotation. This enables a mechanism that breaks away from the older MVC model and makes use of ResponseEntity along with the type safety and flexibility of @ExceptionHandler:

@ControllerAdvice
public class RestResponseEntityExceptionHandler 
  extends ResponseEntityExceptionHandler {
 
    @ExceptionHandler(value 
      = { IllegalArgumentException.class, IllegalStateException.class })
    protected ResponseEntity<Object> handleConflict(
      RuntimeException ex, WebRequest request) {
        String bodyOfResponse = "This should be application specific";
        return handleExceptionInternal(ex, bodyOfResponse, 
          new HttpHeaders(), HttpStatus.CONFLICT, request);
    }
}

The new annotation allows the multiple scattered @ExceptionHandler from before to be consolidated into a single, global error handling component.

The actual mechanism is extremely simple but also very flexible:

• it allows full control over the body of the response as well as the status code
• it allows mapping of several exceptions to the same method, to be handled together
• it makes good use of the newer RESTful ResposeEntity response

One thing to keep in mind here is to match the exceptions declared with @ExceptionHandler with the exception used as the argument of the method. If these don’t match, the compiler will not complain – no reason it should, and Spring will not complain either.

However, when the exception is actually thrown at runtime, the exception resolving mechanism will fail with:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No suitable resolver for argument [0] [type=...]
