Throwable::Error(3pm) User Contributed Perl DocumentationThrowable::Error(3pm)

NAME
       Throwable::Error - an easy-to-use class for error objects

VERSION
       version 1.000

SYNOPSIS
         package MyApp::Error;
         # NOTE: Moo can also be used here instead of Moose
         use Moose;
         extends 'Throwable::Error';

         has execution_phase => (
           is  => 'ro',
           isa => 'MyApp::Phase',
           default => 'startup',
         );

       ...and in your app...

         MyApp::Error->throw("all communications offline");

         # or...

         MyApp::Error->throw({
           message         => "all communications offline",
           execution_phase => 'shutdown',
         });

DESCRIPTION
       Throwable::Error is a base class for exceptions that will be thrown to
       signal errors and abort normal program flow.  Throwable::Error is an
       alternative to Exception::Class, the features of which are largely
       provided by the Moo object system atop which Throwable::Error is built.

       Throwable::Error performs the Throwable and StackTrace::Auto roles.
       That means you can call "throw" on it to create and throw an error
       object in one call, and that every error object will have a stack trace
       for its creation.

PERL VERSION SUPPORT
       This module has a long-term perl support period.  That means it will
       not require a version of perl released fewer than five years ago.

       Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made
       that the minimum required version will not be increased.  The version
       may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches
       will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

ATTRIBUTES
   message
       This attribute must be defined and must contain a string describing the
       error condition.  This string will be printed at the top of the stack
       trace when the error is stringified.

   stack_trace
       This attribute, provided by StackTrace::Auto, will contain a stack
       trace object guaranteed to respond to the "as_string" method.  For more
       information about the stack trace and associated behavior, consult the
       StackTrace::Auto docs.

METHODS
   as_string
       This method will provide a string representing the error, containing
       the error's message followed by the its stack trace.
