Description
Currently, error handling within service methods is inconsistent. To centralize error management and provide clearer feedback to users, we need to enforce a standard where service methods either return a successful result (string) or throw an Error object when an issue occurs.
This approach will allow us to:
- Propagate errors up to the route level.
- Centralize error logging and user messaging at the route handler.
- Improve predictability for consumers of service methods.
Acceptance Criteria:
- All service methods must explicitly throw an
Error instance when an exception or operational error is encountered.
- Service methods must return a
string upon successful completion.
- Route handlers must include
try-catch blocks to gracefully handle errors thrown by service methods, logging them appropriately and providing a user-friendly message.
