Node.js Custom System Error Classes
A Node.js module that maps common POSIX system error codes into custom system error classes.
This module helps developers handle POSIX system errors with meaningful and descriptive error messages, enhancing the debugging and error-handling processes.
Table of Contents
Installation
You can install this module via npm:
npm install @jfabello/system-errors
Usage
After installation, import the module and use the createErrorFromSystemErrorCode()
method or the predefined custom system error classes in your application:
const systemErrors = require("@jfabello/system-errors");
try {
// Some code that might throw a POSIX system error
} catch (error) {
if ("code" in error) {
throw systemErrors.createErrorFromSystemErrorCode(error.code);
} else {
throw new systemErrors.UNKNOWN_ERROR();
}
}
Creating Errors Based on System Error Codes
This module provides a createErrorFromSystemErrorCode()
method, which dynamically creates a custom system error object based on the POSIX system error code:
const error = systemErrors.createErrorFromSystemErrorCode("EACCES");
console.log(error.message); // Output: The operation does not have enough permissions.
This method takes a string as its only argument. It returns an instance of the custom system error class that corresponds to the POSIX system error code passed in the string, or an instance of ERROR_UNKNOWN
if the string can't be matched to a particular POSIX system error code.
