# plugin-error [](http://badge.fury.io/js/plugin-error) [](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/plugin-error)
|
|
|
|
> Error handling for vinyl plugins. Just an abstraction of what's in gulp-util with minor changes.
|
|
|
|
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ npm i plugin-error --save
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var PluginError = require('plugin-error');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### new PluginError(pluginName, message[, options]);
|
|
|
|
**Params**
|
|
|
|
* `pluginName` should be the module name of your plugin
|
|
* `message` **{String|Object}**: may be a string or an existing error object
|
|
* `options` **{Object}**
|
|
|
|
**Behavior:**
|
|
|
|
* By default the stack will not be shown. Set `options.showStack` to true if you think the stack is important for your error.
|
|
* If you pass an error object as the message the stack will be pulled from that, otherwise one will be created.
|
|
* If you pass in a custom stack string you need to include the message along with that.
|
|
* Error properties will be included in `err.toString()`, but may be omitted by including `{showProperties: false}` in the options.
|
|
|
|
**Examples**
|
|
|
|
All of the following are acceptable forms of instantiation:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var err = new PluginError('test', {
|
|
message: 'something broke'
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
var err = new PluginError({
|
|
plugin: 'test',
|
|
message: 'something broke'
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
var err = new PluginError('test', 'something broke');
|
|
|
|
var err = new PluginError('test', 'something broke', {showStack: true});
|
|
|
|
var existingError = new Error('OMG');
|
|
var err = new PluginError('test', existingError, {showStack: true});
|
|
```
