oops 🙊

oops makes errors in Go traceable. It provides traceback function to get more information when you return error from the function

The convention says that an error should either be handled (whatever that means) or returned to the caller. But with more abstraction, it is difficult to find where the error got originated so Traceable function returns error with more information

Example

package main

import (
	"errors"

	"github.com/5anthosh/oops"
)

func main() {
	err := func1().(*oops.Error)
	println(err.Skip(1).Error())
}

func func1() error {
	return func2()
}

func func2() error {
	return func3()
}

func func3() error {
	return oops.T(errors.New("dummy one")).Info("this is just testing")
}

Run the program

$ go run test.go
🔴  Error : dummy one
ℹ️   Info  : this is just testing
