I have a number of views that can raise a custom exception when something unexpected happens (in this particular case, when a back end server TCP socket connection fails). I'd like to use middleware to catch this exception, inject an error message into request, and then render the page as per normal (eg. as if the exception had not occurred). Is middleware the right way to go about this, and can somebody give me a few tips? I've used Django for over four years, but in all that time have never written any custom middleware.
So far I've looked into using process_exception(), which was partially successful, in that I can catch my custom exception there, but I'm not sure how to then steer Django back onto the normal path of a request/response. It seems that I can only return an error page from there, which isn't quite what I want.
