> Make your own error types!
## Features
- Compatible Node & browsers
- `instanceof` support
- `error.name` & `error.stack` support
- compatible with [CSP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_Security_Policy) (i.e. no `eval()`)
## Installation
### Node & [Browserify](http://browserify.org/)/[Webpack](https://webpack.js.org/)
Installation of the [npm package](https://npmjs.org/package/make-error):
```
> npm install --save make-error
```
Then require the package:
```javascript
var makeError = require("make-error");
```
### Browser
You can directly use the build provided at [unpkg.com](https://unpkg.com):
```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/make-error@1/dist/make-error.js"></script>
```
## Usage
### Basic named error
```javascript
var CustomError = makeError("CustomError");
// Parameters are forwarded to the super class (here Error).
throw new CustomError("a message");
```
### Advanced error class
```javascript
function CustomError(customValue) {
CustomError.super.call(this, "custom error message");
this.customValue = customValue;
}
makeError(CustomError);
// Feel free to extend the prototype.
CustomError.prototype.myMethod = function CustomError$myMethod() {
console.log("CustomError.myMethod (%s, %s)", this.code, this.message);
};
//-----
try {
throw new CustomError(42);
} catch (error) {
error.myMethod();
}
```
### Specialized error
```javascript
var SpecializedError = makeError("SpecializedError", CustomError);
throw new SpecializedError(42);
```
### Inheritance
> Best for ES2015+.
```javascript
import { BaseError } from "make-error";
class CustomError extends BaseError {
constructor() {
super("custom error message");
}
}
```
