goerror

Package goerror implements functions to manipulate errors.

The traditional error handling method in golang is given below which applied recursively up the call stack results in error reports without context or debugging information.

if err != nil {
        return err
}

The package mainly contain three functions

GetErrorInfo

GetErrorType

New

GetErrorInfo

which accepts the error and found the detailed information about the error. GetErrorInfo returns the error wrapped up with the file name, line number and function name in which error occured.

func GetErrorInfo(err error) error

if err != nil {
        return goerror.GetErrorInfo(err)
}

GetErrorType

which accepts the error and found the type of the error. GetErrorType returns the error wrapped up with the error type,

func GetErrorType(err error) error

if err != nil {
        return goerror.GetErrorType(err)
