Notes:

This project uses UMD wrapper, meaning it can be used via Node (CommonJs), (AMD) RequireJs or global through window.mistake.

Node:

var mistake = require('mistake');
var error = mistake('My Error');

RequireJs:

define(['mistake'], function(mistake){
  var error = mistake('My Error');
});

Globally:

var mistake = window.mistake;
var error = mistake('My Error');

Implementation

basic

var mistake = require('mistake');
 
throw mistake('Foo', 'I just fooed');

name and hash

var mistake = require('mistake');
 
throw mistake('Foo', {
  message: 'I just fooed',
  foo: 'bar'
});

name and hash and constructor

var mistake = require('mistake');
 
function MyError(message) {
  this.name = 'MyError';
  this.message = message || 'Default Message';
  this.bar = 'foo';
}
 
throw mistake('Foo', {
  message: 'I just fooed',
  foo: 'bar'
