Is it possible to override default error handler of CodeIgniter framework to output it as json? [closed]

Answer 1

Found answer googling a bit more... on "Oliver Smith" blog.

i add this function into CI core functions by extending CI_Exceptions with this:

function show_error($heading, $message, $template = 'error_general', $status_code = 500)
{
    header('Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate');
    header('Content-type: application/json');
    header("HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error");

    echo json_encode(
        array(
            'status' => FALSE,
            'error' => 'Internal Server Error',
            'message' => $message
        )
    );

    exit;
}
