Error return value of (*github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2.Ctx).JSON is not checked (errcheck)

Hi everyone

I'm getting this error when I run golangci-lint run

Error return value of `(*github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2.Ctx).JSON` is not checked (errcheck)

this error is good but its a difficult problem to solve because in my code I return with a specific status, here is my code

	return c.Status(fiber.StatusBadRequest).JSON(fiber.Map{
			"success": false,
			"error": fiber.Map{
				"password": err.Error(),
			},
		})

I saw a solution here gofiber/fiber#126 (comment)

but this solution is hard to implement in my code.

Please help
Thanks in advance

Hi,

You have 3 solutions:

1. explicitly ignore the error

_ = c.Status(fiber.StatusBadRequest).JSON(fiber.Map{
	"success": false,
	"error": fiber.Map{
		"password": err.Error(),
	},
})

2. Add an exclusion:

linters-settings:
  errcheck:
    exclude-functions:
      - (*github.com/gofiber/fiber.Ctx).JSON

3. handle the error

err = c.Status(fiber.StatusBadRequest).JSON(fiber.Map{
	"success": false,
	"error": fiber.Map{
		"password": err.Error(),
	},
})
if err != nil {
	c.Next(err)
}
