[...] I would like to have the 'before' hook just throw an exception object like the rest of my code. However, if I do, the 'on_route_exception' hook never triggers and the exception eventually just gets stringified which isn't very useful.
Is there some other hook I should be using instead of 'on_route_exception'?
I think on_handler_exception *should* do the job; I believe it's a level higher than on_route_exception. Failing that, before_error_init should fire when an error is being handled, with a Dancer::Error object being passed to it. Available hooks are documented at: https://metacpan.org/pod/Dancer#hook If all else fails, a feature request for an on_hook_exception handler could make sense :) -- David Precious ("bigpresh") <davidp@preshweb.co.uk> http://www.preshweb.co.uk/ www.preshweb.co.uk/twitter www.preshweb.co.uk/linkedin www.preshweb.co.uk/facebook www.preshweb.co.uk/cpan www.preshweb.co.uk/github
