error-serializer

Breaking changes

• The beforeSerialize(errorInstance) and afterSerialize(errorInstance, errorObject) options have been removed. Please use the transformObject(errorObject, errorInstance) new option instead.

serialize(error, {
-  beforeSerialize: (error) => {
-    error.date = error.date.toString()
-  },
-  afterSerialize: (error, errorObject) => {
-    error.date = new Date(error.date)
-  },
+  transformObject: (errorObject, error) => {
+    errorObject.date = errorObject.date.toString()
+  },
})

• The beforeParse(errorObject) and afterParse(errorObject, errorInstance) options have been removed. Please use the transformInstance(errorInstance, errorObject) new option instead.

parse(errorObject, {
-  beforeParse: (errorObject) => {
-    errorObject.date = new Date(errorObject.date)
-  },
-  afterParse: (errorObject, error) => {
-    errorObject.date = errorObject.date.toString()
-  },
+  transformInstance: (error, errorObject) => {
+    error.date = new Date(error.date)
+  },
})

Features

• Add the include and exclude options to pick/omit specific properties. For example, this can be used to omit error additional properties or stack trace.
• Add the transformArgs(constructorArgs) option to transform an error message during parse(errorObject).
• The errorObject passed to parse(errorObject) previously required the name, message and stack properties. Only the message property is now required. In other words, parse({message}) now works.

Breaking changes

• Minimal supported Node.js version is now 18.18.0

Dependencies

• Upgrade internal dependencies

Breaking changes

• Minimal supported Node.js version is now 16.17.0

Features

• Improve documentation

Breaking changes

• The normalize option was renamed to loose. Its value has been inverted: normalize: false is now loose: true.
• The default value of the loose option is now false.
  • If the argument to serialize() is not an error instance, it is now normalized to one, unless loose: true is used
  • If the argument to parse() is not an error plain object, it is now normalized to one, unless loose: true is used

• Improve input validation (9b3fc1f)

Features

• A second argument error is now passed to afterSerialize()
• A second argument errorObject is now passed to afterParse()

Breaking changes

• When parsing an error and the classes option was defined, the constructor is not called anymore unless error.constructorArgs was set

Features

• Added options beforeSerialize(), afterSerialize(), beforeParse() and afterParse() to customize the serialization and parsing of each error

Features

• Improve tree-shaking support

Features

• Add browser support

Bug fixes

• Fix package.json

• Switch to MIT license

Features

• Improve error detection using is-error-instance

Features

• Improve shallow option with serialize()

Features

• Improve support for SpiderMonkey and JavaScriptCore

Features

• Constructors parameters can now be kept by setting error.constructorArgs.

Breaking changes

• The loose option was renamed to normalize. Its value has been inverted: loose: true is now normalize: false.
• The default value of the normalize option is now false.
  • If the argument to serialize() is not an error instance, it is not normalized to one anymore, unless normalize: true is used
  • If the argument to parse() is not an error plain object, it is not normalized to one anymore, unless normalize: true is used

Features

• Serialization and parsing are now performed deeply. The shallow: true option can be used to keep them shallow.

Breaking changes

• Rename types option to classes
