1.2

1.2

Release date: 2021-05-19

The most important feature of Couper 1.2 is the introduction of custom error handling in form of the error_handler block.
You can now register error handlers for error types. Instead of the standard error_file template, you can flexibly respond with arbitrary responses.
error_handler is allowed in access control blocks (jwt, saml2 …), where you could e.g. handle missing tokens with a redirect-to-login.
In the future, error_handler will be usable in more config areas. Refer to the example if you want to see it in action.
