method Domain.prototype.intercept
Usage in Deno
import { Domain } from "node:domain";
Domain.prototype.intercept<T extends Function>(callback: T): T
This method is almost identical to bind. However, in
addition to catching thrown errors, it will also intercept Error
objects sent as the first argument to the function.
In this way, the common if (err) return callback(err);
pattern can be replaced
with a single error handler in a single place.
const d = domain.create();
function readSomeFile(filename, cb) {
fs.readFile(filename, 'utf8', d.intercept((data) => {
// Note, the first argument is never passed to the
// callback since it is assumed to be the 'Error' argument
// and thus intercepted by the domain.
// If this throws, it will also be passed to the domain
// so the error-handling logic can be moved to the 'error'
// event on the domain instead of being repeated throughout
// the program.
return cb(null, JSON.parse(data));
}));
}
d.on('error', (er) => {
// An error occurred somewhere. If we throw it now, it will crash the program
// with the normal line number and stack message.
});
