💀 Error Printer for Swift

DieKit, a Swift package designed to streamline and enhance error handling in your Swift applications. It makes exception handling more robust and insightful.

Key Features

• Enhanced Error Reporting: It catches, prints, and rethrows errors for comprehensive debugging.
• Wide Error Support: DieKit extends support to various Swift and Core Foundation error types, providing a versatile tool for a broad range of applications.
• Works everythere, including Vapor 💧

Installation

Add DieKit to your Swift project by including it in your Package.swift dependencies:

dependencies: [
    .package(url: "https://github.com/nzrsky/DieKit.git", from: "0.1.12")
]

Usage

Print ANSI color (if supported) errors to stderr:

print(error: "message")
// or
print(error: CustomError())

Fatal error with proper message as a fallback:

import DieKit

// Not really informative sometimes
let x = env["SECRET_KEY"]!
// main.swift:28: Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value

// ❌ This code doesn't compile
let x = env["SECRET_KEY"] ?? fatalError()

// 🙈 Compiles but looks ugly
let x = env["SECRET_KEY"] ?? { fatalError("<Your message>") }()

// ✅ Almost perfect. You also can print stacktrace using `, trace: true`
let x = env["SECRET_KEY"] ?? die("Specify SECRET_KEY")
// Specify SECRET_KEY in env
// main.swift:28: Fatal error

Print error to stderr and proceed handling:

// Usage of printOnException
do {
    let result = try printOnException { try throwingOperation() }
    // prints error message to stderr according error's type
} catch error {
    // handle error
}

// Usage of dieOnException
let result = dieOnException { try throwingOperation() }
// prints error message to stderr and die

Posix errors:

throw NSError(posixError: EFAULT)

// or
some_system_code_which_writes_errno() 
let error = NSError.posixLatest /* error from errno with proper description */

Print formatted errors:

// Default behaviour
print(CGError.illegalArgument)
// The operation couldn’t be completed. (__C.CGError 1003)

// With DieKit
print(CGError.illegalArgument)
// error: The operation couldn’t be completed. (CGError: Illegal Argument)
