Use heimdal ExceptionHandler just in API

[VictorAssis]

Hello, I am creating the API of a system that already has an administrator module running today. Is it possible for Laravel to use the Heindal Handler only in the API module?

I've found a solution, but I do not know if it's for the best.

1. Remove singleton from bootstrap/app.php;
2. Change the app/Exceptions/Handler.php render method to:

public function render($request, Exception $exception)
{
    if($request->is('api/*')) {
        $handler = new \Optimus\Heimdal\ExceptionHandler($this->container);
        return $handler->render($request, $exception);
    }
    return parent::render($request, $exception);
}

Thanks for the solution @VictorAssis ` $handler = new APIExceptionHandler($this->container);

    if ($request->is('api/*')) {
        return $handler->render($request, $exception);
    }
    $handler->report($exception);
    return parent::render($request, $exception);`

If anyone needs to use reporter from the library for web

You can also detect request type (API/web) during binding procedure and provide appropriate ExceptionHandler class. In your bootstrap/app.php add something similar to:

$app->singleton(Illuminate\Contracts\Debug\ExceptionHandler::class, function($app) {  
  if(request()->is('api/*')) {
    return new Optimus\Heimdal\ExceptionHandler($app);
  }
  return new App\Exceptions\Handler($app);
});
