Dart function custom statuscode

Dear support

I am quite new into the programming world and I am trying to learn flutter/dart and Appwrite as a backend. I have written some functions in Dart but I cannot return any custom statusCode from the function. According to the open runtimes documentation, it should be possible by res.json({ 'areDevelopersAwesome': true, }, status: 500);

The function does always return statusCode 200 unless it fails.

I have looked into the container from open runtimes and found the two function_types.dart and server.dart at usr/local/src but when I compare those files to the files at open runtimes Github (https://github.com/open-runtimes/open-runtimes/tree/main/runtimes/dart-2.17/src) they are completely different.

Do you know how I can make the custom statusCode work in dart functions?

ya...for now, i highly recommend not trying to send a custom status code. you should always try to make sure your code runs successfully (and returns a 200 status).

this is because if your open runtimes function returns a failure, Appwrite might not process it correctly so you won't see anything in logs or errors in Appwrite

Hi Steven Thanks for the reply. I only want to throw some Exceptions if some criteria is missing in the function. That is why I wanted to use the custom status code. Do you know why the files from the open runtime repo is not identical with the files in the container?

Your function code should make sure to not throw any exception (so catch all exceptions).

They are the same. It's just Appwrite might not handle the error like you want

the common approach is to have your function just return status 200 but have a status value in the response to check if the execution itself was successful or not

Okay, I see. Thanks for the explanation.
