Useful JavaScript error classes
---
@httpie/errors package provides error classes with useful defaults. This avoids the boilerplate of setting up a custom error class in different projects.- provides an Error base class capturing the stack trace by default
- every error has a name property providing the error’s class name
- exposes an HttpError class with HTTP status and error code properties
```
npm i @httpie/errors
is pretty straightforward. The package exports error classes that you can use like the native Error class.`js
const { Error, HttpError } = require('@httpie/errors')// works like the native
Error class and also contains the stacktrace
throw new Error('your error message')// the HTTP Error provides a fluent interface to customize the properties
throw new HttpError('Request validation failed')
.withStatus(400)
.withCode('E_YOUR_CUSTOM_ERROR_CODE')
// or create an HTTP error by passing all arguments to the constructor
throw new HttpError('Request validation failed', 400, 'E_YOUR_CUSTOM_ERROR_CODE')
