Remove stack from createError()

How to remove stack from the return createError() function?

Hi @thergbcrow. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To remove the stack trace from the error created by createError() in Nuxt, you can simply omit the stack property when creating the error. The createError() function in Nuxt allows you to specify which properties you want to include in the error object. Here's an example of how you can create an error without including the stack trace:

throw createError({
  statusCode: 404,
  statusMessage: 'Page Not Found',
  message: 'The requested page could not be found'
})

throw createError({
  statusCode: 404,
  statusMessage: 'Page Not Found',
  message: 'The requested page could not be found'
})

By not including the stack property, you effectively remove the stack trace from the error object. It's important to note that the createError() function in Nuxt is designed to create errors with additional metadata, and it's meant to be used for both client-side and server-side error handling. The error object it creates includes properties like statusCode, statusMessage, and message, which are useful for generating appropriate error responses. For more information on error handling in Nuxt and the usage of createError(), you can refer to the Nuxt Error Handling documentation. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai I've already tried doing this, however, in the production build, it still continues to show the stack in the responses.

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I understand your concern about the stack trace still appearing in production builds despite omitting it when using createError(). This behavior is indeed related to how Nuxt handles errors in production environments. Let me provide some additional information based on recent updates to Nuxt's error handling. According to a recent pull request fix(nuxt): hide unhandled error messages in prod, Nuxt has implemented changes to hide error messages (including stack traces) from clients in case of unhandled errors in production. The rationale behind this change is to prevent exposing internal server state, which could potentially include sensitive information. However, it's important to note that this change specifically targets unhandled errors (i.e., errors not created using createError()). For errors created with createError(), the behavior might be different. If you're still seeing stack traces in production for errors created with createError(), there are a couple of things you can try: 1. Ensure you're using the latest version of Nuxt, as this behavior might have been adjusted in recent updates. 2. If you need more control over error responses, especially in production, you might want to consider using the respectNoSSRHeader experimental feature. This allows you to disable Nuxt SSR responses by setting the x-nuxt-no-ssr header, which might give you more control over the error output. You can enable this in your nuxt.config.ts:

   export default defineNuxt({
     experimental: {
       respectNoSSRHeader: true
     }
   })

   export default defineNuxt({
     experimental: {
       respectNoSSRHeader: true
     }
   })

Source 3. If the issue persists, it might be worth reporting it as a potential bug to the Nuxt team, as they've been actively working on improving error handling and formatting, as evidenced by this recent pull request: feat(nuxt): better formatting errors. Remember, the exact behavior might depend on various factors, including your Nuxt version and specific configuration. If you continue to face issues, providing a minimal reproduction of the problem to the Nuxt team would be the best way to get targeted assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
