  1. // Package xerr provides simple error handling primitives.
  2. //
  3. // The traditional error handling idiom in Go is roughly akin to
  4. //
  5. // if err != nil {
  6. // return err
  7. // }
  8. //
  9. // which when applied recursively up the call stack results in error reports
  10. // without context or debugging information. The errors package allows
  11. // programmers to add context to the failure path in their code in a way
  12. // that does not destroy the original value of the error.
  13. //
  14. // Adding context to an error
  15. //
  16. // The errors.Wrap function returns a new error that adds context to the
  17. // original error by recording a stack trace at the point Wrap is called,
  18. // together with the supplied message. For example
  19. //
  20. // _, err := ioutil.ReadAll(r)
  21. // if err != nil {
  22. // return errors.Wrap(err, "read failed")
  23. // }
  24. //
  25. // If additional control is required, the errors.WithStack and
  26. // errors.WithMessage functions destructure errors.Wrap into its component
  27. // operations: annotating an error with a stack trace and with a message,
  28. // respectively.
  29. //
  30. // Retrieving the cause of an error
  31. //
  32. // Using errors.Wrap constructs a stack of errors, adding context to the
  33. // preceding error. Depending on the nature of the error it may be necessary
  34. // to reverse the operation of errors.Wrap to retrieve the original error
  35. // for inspection. Any error value which implements this interface
  36. //
  37. // type causer interface {
  38. // Cause() error
  39. // }
  40. //
  41. // can be inspected by errors.Cause. errors.Cause will recursively retrieve
  42. // the topmost error that does not implement causer, which is assumed to be
  43. // the original cause. For example:
  44. //
  45. // switch err := errors.Cause(err).(type) {
  46. // case *MyError:
  47. // // handle specifically
  48. // default:
  49. // // unknown error
  50. // }
  51. //
  52. // Although the causer interface is not exported by this package, it is
  53. // considered a part of its stable public interface.
  54. //
  55. // Formatted printing of errors
  56. //
  57. // All error values returned from this package implement fmt.Formatter and can
  58. // be formatted by the fmt package. The following verbs are supported:
  59. //
  60. // %s print the error. If the error has a Cause it will be
  61. // printed recursively.
  62. // %v see %s
  63. // %+v extended format. Each Frame of the error's StackTrace will
  64. // be printed in detail.
  65. //
  66. // Retrieving the stack trace of an error or wrapper
  67. //
  68. // New, Errorf, Wrap, and Wrapf record a stack trace at the point they are
  69. // invoked. This information can be retrieved with the following interface:
  70. //
  71. // type stackTracer interface {
  72. // StackTrace() errors.StackTrace
  73. // }
  74. //
  75. // The returned errors.StackTrace type is defined as
  76. //
  77. // type StackTrace []Frame
  78. //
  79. // The Frame type represents a call site in the stack trace. Frame supports
  80. // the fmt.Formatter interface that can be used for printing information about
  81. // the stack trace of this error. For example:
  82. //
  83. // if err, ok := err.(stackTracer); ok {
  84. // for _, f := range err.StackTrace() {
  85. // fmt.Printf("%+s:%d", f)
  86. // }
  87. // }
  88. //
  89. // Although the stackTracer interface is not exported by this package, it is
  90. // considered a part of its stable public interface.
  91. //
  92. // See the documentation for Frame.Format for more details.
