								## errno exposed
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Ever find yourself needing more details about Node.js errors? Me too, so *node-errno* contains the errno mappings direct from libuv so you can use them in your code.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								**By errno:**
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```js
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								require('errno').errno[3]
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								// → {
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//     "errno": 3,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//     "code": "EACCES",
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//     "description": "permission denied"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//   }
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								**By code:**
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```js
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								require('errno').code.ENOTEMPTY
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								// → {
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//     "errno": 53,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//     "code": "ENOTEMPTY",
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//     "description": "directory not empty"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								//   }
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								**Make your errors more descriptive:**
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```js
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var errno = require('errno')
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								function errmsg(err) {
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  var str = 'Error: '
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  // if it's a libuv error then get the description from errno
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  if (errno.errno[err.errno])
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								    str += errno.errno[err.errno].description
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  else
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								    str += err.message
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  // if it's a `fs` error then it'll have a 'path' property
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  if (err.path)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								    str += ' [' + err.path + ']'
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  return str
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								}
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var fs = require('fs')
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								fs.readFile('thisisnotarealfile.txt', function (err, data) {
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  if (err)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								    console.log(errmsg(err))
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								})
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								**Use as a command line tool:**
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								~ $ errno 53
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								{
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  "errno": 53,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  "code": "ENOTEMPTY",
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  "description": "directory not empty"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								}
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								~ $ errno EROFS
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								{
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  "errno": 56,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  "code": "EROFS",
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  "description": "read-only file system"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								}
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								~ $ errno foo
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								No such errno/code: "foo"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Supply no arguments for the full list. Error codes are processed case-insensitive.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								You will need to install with `npm install errno -g` if you want the `errno` command to be available without supplying a full path to the node_modules installation.
							 |

| 
								 | 
							
								## Custom errors
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Use `errno.custom.createError()` to create custom `Error` objects to throw around in your Node.js library. Create error hierarchies so `instanceof` becomes a useful tool in tracking errors. Call-stack is correctly captured at the time you create an instance of the error object, plus a `cause` property will make available the original error object if you pass one in to the constructor.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```js
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var create = require('errno').custom.createError
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var MyError = create('MyError') // inherits from Error
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var SpecificError = create('SpecificError', MyError) // inherits from MyError
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var OtherError = create('OtherError', MyError)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								// use them!
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								if (condition) throw new SpecificError('Eeek! Something bad happened')
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								if (err) return callback(new OtherError(err))
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Also available is a `errno.custom.FilesystemError` with in-built access to errno properties:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```js
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								fs.readFile('foo', function (err, data) {
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  if (err) return callback(new errno.custom.FilesystemError(err))
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								  // do something else
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								})
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The resulting error object passed through the callback will have the following properties: `code`, `errno`, `path` and `message` will contain a descriptive human-readable message.
