Wrong footprint error message

[jaumard]

If we call a route like /api/v1/default/toto, I have this error :

debug: [FootprintController] (find) model = default , criteria = {} info options =
Debug: internal, implementation, error 
    TypeError: Uncaught error: Cannot read property 'findOne' of undefined

A better error message can be send like no model default or just 500 server error

[enten]

@context trailpack-waterline/api/Services/FootprintService

I guess that this error is due to an undefined reference when a model is recovered from app.orm or app.packs.waterline.orm.collections in FootprintService (line 38 for example).

All FootprintService methods can throws similar error (model not found).

Why there are no check to be sure if a model exists?

@jaumard is this still an issue or can we close?

[jaumard]

Still an issue but not for hapi I think because it have to be fix/check on trailpack-router or trailpack-footprints or each trailpack-datastore
Like @enten say there is no check to see if the model exist. Where we could put this issue ?

[jaumard]

@weyj4 Here is how I fix this for Express and Sequelize
On Footprint service (sequelize) : https://github.com/trailsjs/trailpack-sequelize/blob/master/api/services/FootprintService.js#L27
On Footprint controller (express) : https://github.com/trailsjs/trailpack-express/blob/master/api/controllers/FootprintController.js#L25

With this Footprint controller web server doesn't send a 500 whatever the server is (as hapi do actually).

Is there a way I can help with this?
I have particular interest on fixing the king of errors jaumard refers to on his last comment.
