Custom 404 page in Lumen

Question

I\'m new to Lumen and want to create an app with this framework. Now I have the problem that if some user enters a wrong url => http://www.example.com/abuot (wrong) => http://ww

Seeing as errors are handled in App\Exceptions\Handler, this is the best place to deal with them.

If you are only after a custom 404 error page, then you could do this quite easily:

Add this line up the top of the Handler file:

use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Exception\NotFoundHttpException;

Alter the render function to look like so:

public function render($request, Exception $e)
{
    if($e instanceof NotFoundHttpException){
        return response(view("errors.404"), 404);
    }
    return parent::render($request, $e);
}

This assumes your custom 404 page is stored in an errors folder within your views, and will return the custom error page along with a 404 status code.
