Example​

const eprint = await storage.getEprint(uri);
if (!eprint) {
  throw new NotFoundError('Eprint', uri);

readonly optional cause: Error

Original error that caused this error (if any).

Remarks​

Error chaining allows tracking the full error context through multiple layers of the application. Useful for debugging complex error scenarios.

try {
  await fetchData();
} catch (err) {
  throw new ValidationError('Failed to validate data', 'field', 'required', err as Error);
}

readonly code: "NOT_FOUND" = 'NOT_FOUND'

Defined in: src/types/errors.ts:161

Remarks​

Error codes are unique identifiers for error types, enabling programmatic error handling (switch statements, error maps), error tracking in monitoring systems, and client-side error translation (i18n).

Overrides​

ChiveError.code

Defined in: src/types/errors.ts:175
