Struct stacked_errors::Error

pub struct Error {
    pub stack: ThinVec<(ErrorKind, Option<&'static Location<'static>>)>,
}

An error struct intended for high level error propogation with programmable backtraces

For lower level error propogation, you should still use ordinary Option and Result with domain-specific enums, it is only when using OS-level functions or when multiple domains converge that this is intended to be used. This has an internal stack for different kinds of arbitrary lower level errors and Locations. When used with the StackableErr trait, this enables easy conversion and software defined backtraces for better async debugging. See the crate docs for more.

Note that due to trait conflicts and not wanting users to accidentally wastefully embed stacked_errors::Error in a BoxedErr of another stacked_errors::Error, stacked_errors::Error itself does not actually implement std::error::Error. This does not pose a problem in most cases since it is intended to be the highest level of error that is directly returned or panicked on. However, if a user needs the end result struct to implement std::error::Error, they can use the StackedError wrapper.

Fields

stack: ThinVec<(ErrorKind, Option<&'static Location<'static>>)>

Using a ThinVec has advantages such as taking as little space as possible on the stack (since we are commiting to some indirection at this point), and having the niche optimizations applied to things like Result<(), Error>.

Implementations

impl Error

Note: in most cases you can use Error::from or a call from StackableErr instead of these functions.

pub fn empty() -> Self

Returns an empty error stack

pub fn new() -> Self

Returns an error stack with just a UnitError and location information

pub fn from_err<E: Error + Send + Sync + 'static>(e: E) -> Self

Returns an error stack with a BoxedError around e, and location info.

pub fn from_err_locationless<E: Error + Send + Sync + 'static>(e: E) -> Self

Same as Error::from_err but without location.

pub fn from_kind<K: Into<ErrorKind>>(kind: K) -> Self

Returns an error stack with just kind.

pub fn from_kind_locationless<K: Into<ErrorKind>>(kind: K) -> Self

Same as Error::from_kind but without location.

pub fn from_box(e: Box<dyn Error + Send + Sync>) -> Self

Returns an error stack with just a BoxedErr.

pub fn from_box_locationless(e: Box<dyn Error + Send + Sync>) -> Self

Same as Error::from_box but without location.

pub fn add_kind<K: Into<ErrorKind>>(self, kind: K) -> Self

Adds kind to the error stack alongside location information. Use StackableErr instead of this if anything expensive in creating the error is involved, because stack_err uses a closure analogous to ok_or_else.

pub fn add_kind_locationless<K: Into<ErrorKind>>(self, kind: K) -> Self

Same as Error::add_kind but without location.

pub fn add_location(self) -> Self

Only adds track_caller location to the stack

pub fn chain_errors(self, other: Self) -> Self

Moves the stack of other onto self

pub fn timeout() -> Self

Returns a base TimeoutError error

pub fn probably_not_root_cause() -> Self

Returns a base ProbablyNotRootCauseError error

pub fn is_timeout(&self) -> bool

Returns if a TimeoutError is in the error stack

pub fn is_probably_not_root_cause(&self) -> bool

Returns if a ProbablyNotRootCauseError is in the error stack
