@perfective/error v0.3.0

Error

The @perfective/error package helps organize exceptions and error handling. It defines an Exception, based on the JS Error class, that supports localizable error messages and error chaining; and provides functions to handle error stack output.

Read the full documentation in the repository.

• Exception:
  • Exception.toString() — outputs the stack of all error messages.
  • exception(message: string, tokens: ExceptionTokens = {}, context: ExceptionContext = {}): Exception — creates an Exception without a previous error.
  • causedBy(previous: Error, message: string, tokens: ExceptionTokens = {}, context: ExceptionContext = {}): Exception — creates an Exception with a previous error.
  • unknownError(error: unknown): Error | Exception — returns a passed Error or creates a new Literal error Exception.
  • isException<T>(value: Exception | T): value is Exception — returns true when value is an Exception.
  • isNotException<T>(value: Exception | T): value is T — returns true when value is not an Exception.
  • chainStack(error: Error): string — outputs the stack of all errors with their stack trace.
  • fault(error: Error): Error — returns the first error in the chain.
• ExceptionMessage:
  • exceptionMessage(template: string, tokens?: ExceptionTokens): ExceptionMessage — creates an ExceptionMessage with an empty tokens object if the argument not provided.
  • exceptionMessageOutput(message: ExceptionMessage): string — creates a string to output an ExceptionMessage.
• Failure — a record type to serialize errors and exceptions:
  • failure<E extends Error>(error: E): Failure — convert and Error or an Exception into a Failure record.
• Throwing errors:
  • throws<E extends Error>(error: E): never — throws a provided error.
  • throws<E extends Error>(error: () => E): never — throws an error created by the provided function.
  • throws<E extends Error>(message: string, context: ExceptionContext = {}): never — creates and throws an Exception with the given message and context.
  • rethrows(previous: Error, message: string, context: ExceptionContext = {}): never — creates and throws an exception with the given message, context, and previous error.
  • Panic — a type of nullary functions that throw an error when executed: panic<E extends Error>(error: E): Panic — creates a function that throws a provided error. panic<E extends Error>(error: () => E): Panic — creates a function that throws an error created by the provided function. * panic<E extends Error>(message: string, context: ExceptionContext = {}): Panic — creates a function that throws an Exception with the given message and context.
  • Rethrow<E extends Error = Error> — a type of unary functions that rethrow a previous error when executed: * rethrow(message: string, context: ExceptionContext = {}): Rethrow — creates a function that throws an exception with the given message, context, and previous error.
• Error:
  • error(message?: string): Error — instantiates a new Error.
  • isError<T>(value: Error | T): value is Error — returns true when the value is an instance of Error.
  • isNotError<T>(value: Error | T): value is T — returns true when the value is not an instance of Error.
• EvalError:
  • evalError(message?: string): EvalError — instantiates a new EvalError.
  • isEvalError<T>(value: EvalError | T): value is EvalError — returns true when the value is an instance of EvalError.
  • isNotEvalError<T>(value: EvalError | T): value is T — returns true when the value is not an instance of EvalError.
• RangeError:
  • rangeError(message?: string): RangeError — instantiates a new RangeError.
  • isRangeError<T>(value: RangeError | T): value is RangeError — returns true when the value is an instance of RangeError.
  • isNotRangeError<T>(value: RangeError | T): value is T — returns true when the value is not an instance of RangeError.
• ReferenceError:
  • referenceError(message?: string): ReferenceError — instantiates a new ReferenceError.
  • isReferenceError<T>(value: ReferenceError | T): value is ReferenceError — returns true when the value is an instance of ReferenceError.
  • isNotReferenceError<T>(value: ReferenceError | T): value is T — returns true when the value is not an instance of ReferenceError.
• SyntaxError:
  • syntaxError(message?: string): SyntaxError — instantiates a new SyntaxError.
  • isSyntaxError<T>(value: SyntaxError | T): value is SyntaxError — returns true when the value is an instance of SyntaxError.
  • isNotSyntaxError<T>(value: SyntaxError | T): value is T — returns true when the value is not an instance of SyntaxError.
• TypeError:
  • typeError(message?: string): TypeError — instantiates a new TypeError.
  • isTypeError<T>(value: TypeError | T): value is TypeError — returns true when the value is an instance of TypeError.
  • isNotTypeError<T>(value: TypeError | T): value is T — returns true when the value is not an instance of TypeError.
