node-verror is a JavaScript library providing rich error classes (VError, WError, SError, MultiError) for Node.js. It supports printf-style messages, error cause chains, extra informational properties, and custom subclasses.

Use cases

  • chain errors with context across call stack layers
  • wrap internal errors without exposing messages to API clients
  • create error subclasses with printf-style messages
  • aggregate multiple errors from parallel operations
  • attach extra metadata to errors for debugging

When to choose

  • you follow Joyent-style Node.js error handling best practices
  • you need structured error cause chains with rich messages
  • you want to hide internal error details from API consumers while preserving them for logs

When to avoid

  • you only need simple built-in Error objects
  • your project uses modern alternatives like AggregateError or custom error classes
  • you are not working in a Node.js/JavaScript codebase
