Properly update an error's stack.
In V8 (Chrome, Node.js, Deno, etc.),
[`error.stack`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Error/stack)
includes
[`error.message`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Error/message).
However, if `error.stack` is modified, `error.message` is not updated
accordingly. This library fixes it.
In other JavaScript engines, this library just sets `error.stack`.
# Hire me
Please
[reach out](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7117265228068716545/)
if you're looking for a Node.js API or CLI engineer (11 years of experience).
Most recently I have been [Netlify Build](https://github.com/netlify/build)'s
and [Netlify Plugins](https://www.netlify.com/products/build/plugins/)'
technical lead for 2.5 years. I am available for full-time remote positions.
# Example
Without `set-error-stack`:
```js
const error = new Error('one')
console.log(error.stack) // 'Error: one ...'
console.log(error.message) // 'one'
error.stack = error.stack.replace('one', 'two')
console.log(error.stack) // 'Error: two ...'
console.log(error.message) // 'one'
```
With `set-error-stack`:
```js
import setErrorStack from 'set-error-stack'
const error = new Error('one')
console.log(error.stack) // 'Error: one ...'
console.log(error.message) // 'one'
setErrorStack(error, error.stack.replace('one', 'two'))
console.log(error.stack) // 'Error: two ...'
console.log(error.message) // 'two'
```
# Install
```bash
npm install set-error-stack
```
This package works in both Node.js >=18.18.0 and
[browsers](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ehmicky/dev-tasks/main/src/browserslist).
This is an ES module. It must be loaded using
[an `import` or `import()` statement](https://gist.github.com/sindresorhus/a39789f98801d908bbc7ff3ecc99d99c),
not `require()`. If TypeScript is used, it must be configured to
[output ES modules](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/esm-node.html),
not CommonJS.
# API
## setErrorStack(error, stack)
`error` `Error | any`\
`stack` `string`\
_Return value_: `Error`
Sets `error.stack = stack`. If needed, also modifies `error.message`
accordingly.
Returns `error`. If `error` is not an `Error` instance, it is converted to one.
