Install

npm install @visulima/error
yarn add @visulima/error
pnpm add @visulima/error

Usage

Extend the VisulimaError

import { VisulimaError } from "@visulima/error";

class MyError extends VisulimaError {
    constructor(message: string) {
        super({
            name: "MyError",
            message,
        });
    }
}

throw new MyError("My error message");

// or

const error = new MyError("My error message");

error.hint = "My error hint";

throw error;

Get all causes in a error

import { getErrorCauses } from "@visulima/error";

const error = new Error("My error message");
const error2 = new Error("Nested Error");

error.cause = error2;

// The getErrorCauses function will return an array of all causes in the error in the order they occurred.
const causes = getErrorCauses(error);

console.log(causes);

// [
//     {
//         message: "My error message",
//         name: "Error",
//         stack: "Error: My error message\n    at Object.<anonymous> (/visulima/packages/error/src/index.ts:2:16)",
//     },
//     {
//         message: "Nested Error",
//         name: "Error",
//         stack: "Error: Nested Error\n    at Object.<anonymous> (/visulima/packages/error/src/index.ts:3:16)",
//     },
// ];

Pretty Code Frame

Display a pretty code frame with the error location.

Note: Tabs can be used in the source code, codeFrame transforms them to spaces based on the tabWidth option. The default tabWidth is 4, to disable the transformation, set tabWidth to false.

import { codeFrame } from "@visulima/error";

const source = "const x = 10;\nconst error = x.y;\n";
const loc = { column: 16, line: 2 };

const frame = codeFrame(source, { start: loc });

console.log(frame);
//   1 | const x = 10;
// > 2 | const error = x.y;
//     |                ^

const sourceMap = loadSourceMap("your_path/src/index.js"); // returns a TraceMap

const traced = originalPositionFor(sourceMap, { column: 13, line: 30 });

console.log(traced);

// {
//     column: 9,
//     line: 15,
//     name: "setState",
//     source: "your_path/src/index.js"
// }

console.log(sourceContentFor(sourceMap, traced.source)); // 'content for your_path/src/index.js'
