panic-fn v1.2.1

panic-fn

Functional way of throwing errors in JS/TS

Why?

Have you ever tried to do this?

callback(() => throw new Error("Not implemented"));
// or this
doStuff(value ?? throw new Error("No value provided"));

But got Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'throw'.

With panic-fn it works as expected.

callback(() => panic("Not implemented"));
// or this
doStuff(value ?? panic("No value provided"));

You can also throw custom errors:

panic(new SyntaxError(`Unexpected token 'throw'`));

npm i panic-fn
