Bug 25032: Generic unhandled exception handling on API
This patch adds Koha::Logger as the default logger for the API, and
introduces a new helper plugin that takes care of handling the unhandled
exceptions. Basically, with this we would write something like this in
our controller methods:
Without this, we end up adding more and more handling 'just in case'.
To test:
1. Edit the Koha/REST/V1/Cities.pm 'list' method adding
die("Nada"); before the render step.
2. Restart plack and try the endpoint
=> FAIL: A generic error is displayed, and no traces of the original
problem are found on the logs.
3. Apply this patches, make sure your instance's log4perl has the
introduced lines for API with the right path.
4. Repeat 2
=> SUCCESS: The message is still generic, but you see something is
logged in /var/log/koha/kohadev/api-error.log
5. Change die("Nada"); for a real exception like:
use Koha::Exceptions;
Koha::Exceptions::DuplicateObject->throw("Nada");
6. Repeat 2.
=> SUCCESS: The message is generic, but a meaningful text is added to
the logs.
