Quick Start

Create Custom Error

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

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

throw new DatabaseError("Connection failed");

Add Hints

const error = new DatabaseError("Connection timeout");
error.hint = "Check database connection string";

throw error;

Code Frame

import { codeFrame } from "@visulima/error/code-frame";

const source = "const x = 10;\nconst error = x.y;\n";
const frame = codeFrame(source, {
    start: { line: 2, column: 16 }
});

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

Error Causes

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

const rootError = new Error("Root cause");
const wrappedError = new Error("Wrapped", { cause: rootError });

const causes = getErrorCauses(wrappedError);
// Returns array of all errors in chain
