Total.js Custom System View

Question

I would like to use controller.view500(err) and display a custom system view.

How to display a custom system view 500, 400 ?

The function view500 doesn't actually render any view. It's just an alias for throw500.

If you want to render a view you can define a custom route like this:

F.route('#500', function(){
    // You need to create the view '500.html' file yourself in views folder
    this.view('500');
});

Then whenever you use controller.view500(); the above route will handle it. The error you pass to view500 should be available in the route controller as controller.exception
