Class ExceptionTrap
Entry point to CakePHP's exception handling.
Using the register() method you can attach an ExceptionTrap to PHP's default exception handler and register
a shutdown handler to handle fatal errors.
When exceptions are trapped the Exception.beforeRender event is triggered.
Then exceptions are logged (if enabled) and finally 'rendered' using the defined renderer.
Stopping the Exception.beforeRender event has no effect, as we always need to render
a response to an exception and custom renderers should be used if you want to replace or
skip rendering an exception.
If undefined, an ExceptionRenderer will be selected based on the current SAPI (CLI or Web).

instance(): Cake\Error\ExceptionTrap|nullGet the registered global instance if set.
Keep in mind that the global state contained here is mutable and the object returned by this method could be a stale value.
Returns

logException() ¶ public
logException(Throwable $exception, Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface|null $request = null): voidLog an exception.

voidProperty Detail
$_configInitialized ¶ protected
Whether the config property has already been configured with defaults
Type
bool$_defaultConfig ¶ protected
Configuration options. Generally these will be defined in your config/app.php
- exceptionRenderer- string - The class responsible for rendering uncaught exceptions. The chosen class will be used for for both CLI and web environments. If you want different classes used in CLI and web environments you'll need to write that conditional logic as well. The conventional location for custom renderers is in- src/Error. Your exception renderer needs to implement the- render()method and return either a string or Http\Response.
- logSet to false to disable logging.
- logger- string - The class name of the error logger to use.
- trace- boolean - Whether or not backtraces should be included in logged exceptions.
- skipLog- array - List of exceptions to skip for logging. Exceptions that extend one of the listed exceptions will also not be logged. E.g.:- 'skipLog' => ['Cake\Http\Exception\NotFoundException', 'Cake\Http\Exception\UnauthorizedException']- This option is forwarded to the configured - logger
- extraFatalErrorMemory- int - The number of megabytes to increase the memory limit by when a fatal error is encountered. This allows breathing room to complete logging or error handling.
- stderrUsed in console environments so that renderers have access to the current console output stream.
Type
array<string, mixed>$_eventManager ¶ protected
Instance of the Cake\Event\EventManager this object is using to dispatch inner events.
Type
Cake\Event\EventManagerInterface|null$callbacks ¶ protected
A list of handling callbacks.
Callbacks are invoked for each error that is handled. Callbacks are invoked in the order they are attached.
Type
array<Closure>$registeredTrap ¶ protected static
The currently registered global exception handler
This is best effort as we can't know if/when another exception handler is registered.
