Error handler for failed promises

🧭 Table of contents

✨ Benefits

  • More readable than try/catch
  • Preserves stack call for debugging
  • Exits process (in NodeJS)

🎒 Requierments

No requierments, just works.

🚀 Quickstart

Install

NodeJS

Install using the terminal:

npm install @danielcobo/err

Require the module:

const err = require('@danielcobo/err');

Note: In case you're wondering, @danielcobo/ is just a namespace scope - an NPM feature. Scopes make it easier to name modules and improve security.

Browser

Declare it as a global variable named err by including this script before any script you want to use it in:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@danielcobo/err@1/dist/iife/err.min.js"></script>

Or import it as an ECMAScript module:

import * as err from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@danielcobo/err@1/dist/esm/err.min.js';

Also, feel free to download the file if you prefer not to use jsdelivr. In that case just replace the url with the relative file path.

Example use

const result = await trySomething(param).catch(
  err('Everyone fails sometime. Error:')
);

For details see documentation below.
