1//! Error Formatter
2//!
3//! This module provides error sanitization and formatting for different environments.
4//! It controls what error details are exposed to clients based on deployment context.
5//!
6//! # Architecture
7//!
8//! The Error Formatter acts as the fifth and final layer in the security middleware:
9//! ```text
10//! GraphQL Error
11//!     ↓
12//! ErrorFormatter::format_error()
13//!     ├─ Check 1: Determine detail level based on environment
14//!     ├─ Check 2: Sanitize error message
15//!     ├─ Check 3: Remove sensitive information
16//!     └─ Check 4: Return formatted error
17//!     ↓
18//! Safe Error Message (suitable for client)
19//! ```
20//!
21//! # Examples
22//!
23//! ```no_run
24//! use fraiseql_core::security::{ErrorFormatter, DetailLevel};
25//!
26//! // Create formatter for production (minimal details)
27//! let formatter = ErrorFormatter::new(DetailLevel::Production);
28//!
29//! // Format an error
30//! let error_msg = "Database error: connection refused to postgresql://user:pass@db.local";
31//! let formatted = formatter.format_error(error_msg);
32//! println!("{}", formatted); // Shows only: "Internal server error"
33//! ```
