// Package errors provides simple error handling primitives.
//
// The traditional error handling idiom in Go is roughly akin to
//
// if err != nil {
// return err
// }
//
// which when applied recursively up the call stack results in error reports
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
// without context or debugging information. The errors package allows
// programmers to add context to the failure path in their code in a way
// that does not destroy the original value of the error.
//
// Adding context to an error
//
// The errors.Wrap function returns a new error that adds context to the
// original error by recording a stack trace at the point Wrap is called,
// together with the supplied message. For example
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
//
// _, err := ioutil.ReadAll(r)
// if err != nil {
// return errors.Wrap(err, "read failed")
// }
//
// If additional control is required, the errors.WithStack and
// errors.WithMessage functions destructure errors.Wrap into its component
// operations: annotating an error with a stack trace and with a message,
// respectively.
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
//
// Retrieving the cause of an error
//
// Using errors.Wrap constructs a stack of errors, adding context to the
// preceding error. Depending on the nature of the error it may be necessary
// to reverse the operation of errors.Wrap to retrieve the original error
// for inspection. Any error value which implements this interface
//
// type causer interface {
// Cause() error
// }
//
// can be inspected by errors.Cause. errors.Cause will recursively retrieve
// the topmost error that does not implement causer, which is assumed to be
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
// the original cause. For example:
//
// switch err := errors.Cause(err).(type) {
// case *MyError:
// // handle specifically
// default:
// // unknown error
// }
//
// Although the causer interface is not exported by this package, it is
// considered a part of its stable public interface.
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
//
// Formatted printing of errors
//
// All error values returned from this package implement fmt.Formatter and can
// be formatted by the fmt package. The following verbs are supported:
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
//
// %s print the error. If the error has a Cause it will be
// printed recursively.
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
// %v see %s
// %+v extended format. Each Frame of the error's StackTrace will
// be printed in detail.
//
// Retrieving the stack trace of an error or wrapper
//
// New, Errorf, Wrap, and Wrapf record a stack trace at the point they are
// invoked. This information can be retrieved with the following interface:
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
//
// type stackTracer interface {
// StackTrace() errors.StackTrace
// }
//
// The returned errors.StackTrace type is defined as
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
//
// type StackTrace []Frame
//
// The Frame type represents a call site in the stack trace. Frame supports
// the fmt.Formatter interface that can be used for printing information about
// the stack trace of this error. For example:
//
// if err, ok := err.(stackTracer); ok {
// for _, f := range err.StackTrace() {
// fmt.Printf("%+s:%d", f)
// }
// }
//
// Although the stackTracer interface is not exported by this package, it is
// considered a part of its stable public interface.
2017-02-07 11:42:02 +00:00
//
// See the documentation for Frame.Format for more details.
