Helper Functions for the Server-Side
¶

These helper utility functions are used for logging and handling errors on the server-side.
```
module.exports = {
```

¶

Log any errors which are passed along from the server.

  logErrors: function(err, req, res, next) {
    console.error(err.stack);
    next(err);
  },

¶

Handle any errors which are passed along from the server by sending a 500 status code and the error message back to the client in the response.
```
  handleErrors: function(err, req, res, next) {
```

¶

Send client the error message.

    res.send(500, {error: err.message});
  }

};
