Package errors adds stacktrace support to errors in go.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is particularly useful when you want to understand the state of execution
|
||
|
|
when an error was returned unexpectedly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It provides the type \*Error which implements the standard golang error
|
||
|
|
interface, so you can use this library interchangably with code that is
|
||
|
|
expecting a normal error return.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Usage
|
||
|
|
=====
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Full documentation is available on
|
||
|
|
[godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/go-errors/errors), but here's a simple
|
||
|
|
example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```go
|
||
|
|
package crashy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
import "github.com/go-errors/errors"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
var Crashed = errors.Errorf("oh dear")
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
func Crash() error {
|
||
|
|
return errors.New(Crashed)
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This can be called as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```go
|
||
|
|
package main
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
import (
|
||
|
|
"crashy"
|
||
|
|
"fmt"
|
||
|
|
"github.com/go-errors/errors"
|
||
|
|
)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
func main() {
|
||
|
|
err := crashy.Crash()
|
||
|
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
|
if errors.Is(err, crashy.Crashed) {
|
||
|
|
fmt.Println(err.(*errors.Error).ErrorStack())
|
||
|
|
} else {
|
||
|
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

This package was original written to allow reporting to
|
||
|
|
[Bugsnag](https://bugsnag.com/) from
|
||
|
|
[bugsnag-go](https://github.com/bugsnag/bugsnag-go), but after I found similar
|
||
|
|
packages by Facebook and Dropbox, it was moved to one canonical location so
|
||
|
|
everyone can benefit.
