errors.wrap

This is a simple library for wrapping errors with additional context messages for rethrowing without losing the original error stack trace and message.

Example

Without wrapping

Code

function connectDatabase() {
    throw new Error('Database connection failed');
}

function startApp() {
    try {
        connectDatabase();
    } catch (err) {
        throw err;
    }
}


try {
    startApp();
} catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
}

Output

Error: Database connection failed
    at connectDatabase (test-nowrap.js:3:9)
    at startApp (test-nowrap.js:8:5)
    at Object.<anonymous> (test-nowrap.js:16:3)
    at Module._compile (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1112:14)
    at Module._extensions..js (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1166:10)
    at Module.load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:988:32)
    at Module._load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:834:12)
    at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (node:internal/modules/run_main:77:12)

With wrapping

const { wrap } = require('@hitorisensei/errors.wrap');

function connectDatabase() {
  throw new Error('Database connection failed');
}

function startApp() {
  try {
    connectDatabase();
  } catch (err) {
    throw wrap(err, 'Cannot start app');
  }
}

try {
  startApp();
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
}

Output

Error: Cannot start app: Database connection failed

Issues

• Wrapped error stack trace is modified to include additional wrap hops, so it may break some tools that rely on stack trace format.
