If 3rd-party package throws a custom exception, then you can catch it in a way you just described.
If it's not throwing a custom exception but rather a generic Exception, then there's no way.

How to catch exception from an external package?
Hi! I'm new to Lumen and Laravel. I use firebase/php-jwt package for my project. In controllers it's clear:
\JWT::decode(...)
But I can't handle exceptions from this package. I tried to do something like this: /app/Exceptions/Handler.php
public function render($request, Exception $e)
{
if ($e instanceof DomainException) {
return 'Caught!';
}
return parent::render($request, $e);
}
How can I handle exceptions from 3rd party packages? Thanks in advance!

Should I specify namespaces in the above example?
My task is to check JWT signature (using firebase/php-jwt package). And if signature is wrong, I want to return JSON instead of Lumen's error page. So are there any other ways to do this?

Never used that package, so not sure whether it provides such method. I suppose it does, so check the API.

My problem was in backslash :)
This works good:
public function render($request, Exception $e)
{
if ($e instanceof \DomainException) {
return 'Caught!';
}
return parent::render($request, $e);
}
toniperic, thank you for your reply!
