import "adverr"
Package adverr implements errors with call stack traces as well as error
templates for error equality
Usage examples
Creating templates:
var (
ErrDoStuffFailed = adverr.NewErrTmpl("ErrDoStuffFailed", "Could'nt do stuff because of %s")
)
Creating independent error (without error template):
func doStuffWithIndependentErr() error {
return adverr.New("Could'nt do stuff")
}
Creating error based on template:
func doStuff() error {
return ErrDoStuffFailed.New("reasons")
}
Printing errors on stderr convieniently:
Print(myErr)
Println(myErr)
Printing errors on stderr and exit with exitcode:
Fatal(myErr, 1)
Fatalln(myErr, 1)
Advantages of error templates
two errors made by the same template will return true when called with errors.Is()
## Usage
```go
var CallStackLength int = 100
```
CallStackLength decides how many calls from the call stack should be gathered at
most
```go
var (
// ErrTmplUsedAsErr is returned from ErrTmpl.Error() because an error template should never be used as an actual error value
ErrTmplUsedAsErr = NewErrTmpl("ErrTmplUsedAsErr", "Error template used as error value: %s")
)
```
```go
var TraceCallStack bool = true
```
TraceCallStack decides if any call stack traces will be gathered when creating
Errors If your application is doing performance-heavy tasks with lots of Error
creations, you may consider setting this to false If set to false, all
CallTraces in Error will be nil
#### func Fatal
```go
func Fatal(err error, exitcode int)
```
Fatal prints the given err to stderr and exits immediately with the given exit
code
#### func Fatalln
```go
func Fatalln(err error, exitcode int)
```
Fatalln prints the given err to stderr followed by a newline and exits
immediately with the given exit code
#### func Print
```go
func Print(err error)
```
Print prints the given err to stderr
#### func Println
```go
func Println(err error)
```
Println prints the given err to stderr followed by a newline
#### type CallTrace
```go
type CallTrace struct {
}
```
CallTrace represents a call stack trace similar to Java's stack trace
#### func Trace
```go
func Trace(skip int) *CallTrace
```
Trace returns a new CallTrace starting from this call Use skip to skip the first
entries in the trace
#### func (*CallTrace) String
```go
func (ct *CallTrace) String() string
```
#### type ErrTmpl
```go
type ErrTmpl struct {
}
```
ErrTmpl is an error template to define equalities between different errors
#### func NewErrTmpl
```go
func NewErrTmpl(name, format string) *ErrTmpl
```
NewErrTmpl returns a new error template with the given format string as a
predefined error message
#### func (*ErrTmpl) Error
```go
func (t *ErrTmpl) Error() string
```
Error implementation just for satisfying the error interface Please dont use
ErrTmpls as actual errors
#### func (*ErrTmpl) New
```go
func (t *ErrTmpl) New(args ...interface{}) *Error
```
New returns a new Error in which the given values are being formatted into the
format string of its template
#### type Error
```go
type Error struct {
}
```
Error is a wrapper for error with stack trace
#### func New
```go
func New(msg string) *Error
```
New returns a new Error with the given message
#### func Wrap
```go
func Wrap(msg string, cause error) *Error
```
Wrap returns a new Error with the given message which is caused by cause
#### func (*Error) Error
```go
func (e *Error) Error() string
```
#### func (*Error) Is
```go
func (e *Error) Is(target error) bool
```
Is implements the error equality function used by errors.Is() It returns true if
the error is the same instance or is created using the same ErrTmpl
#### func (*Error) Unwrap
```go
func (e *Error) Unwrap() error
```
