I have lots of controllers methods in WebAPI similar to the following:
public IHttpActionResult Delete(int id)
{
var command = new DeleteItemCommand() { Id = id };
try
{
_deleteCommandHandler.Handle(command);
}
catch (CommandHandlerResourceNotFoundException)
{
throw new HttpResponseException(HttpStatusCode.NotFound);
}
catch(CommandHandlerException)
{
throw new HttpResponseException(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError);
}
// More catches etc...
return Ok();
}
The command handlers (in this instance _deleteCommandHandler
) is injected earlier in the execution and the commands may be built in the method or using WebApi's automatic method.
What I would like to do is to encapsulate the try/catch error handling in a private method and end up with a controller similar to:
public IHttpActionResult Delete(int id)
{
var command = new DeleteItemCommand() { Id = id };
return ExecuteCommand(x => _deleteCommandHandler.Handle(command));
}
I'm not sure what the signature of the private ExecuteCommand
method should be though.
