refactor: Error handling #284

aarondill · 2023-01-23T07:06:50Z

This PR refactors the code to enclose common error points in try catch blocks and outputting the message property on the error to the user on stderr. This further allows tolerant errors where the program is not halted, but instead continues to process other files.

aarondill · 2023-01-23T08:01:27Z

This and #283 will go well together, however this commit only relies on #281 before it can be merged

keithamus · 2023-01-30T11:30:47Z

@aarondill think we should close this one?

aarondill · 2023-01-30T12:27:24Z

@aarondill think we should close this one?

why's that?

keithamus · 2023-01-30T12:46:09Z

Perhaps it needs to be rebased/refactored. I'm struggling to see what it adds on top of #281

Stops any successful output. Errors are still outputted.

This commit creates stdout and stderr functions for outputting with respect to isQuiet and adds support for differing (easier to parse) messages if not connected to a TTY (eg. a pipe or process substitution) Additionally changes the 'No matching files.' message to output on stderr rather than on stdout as it was, which makes sense because this output represents erroneous usage.

these variables can be set to force output on the specified chanel as if it were connected to a terminal. macro.testCLI can now take an argument of the following form: isTerminal: { stderr: false, stdout: false },

The exit code is now the number of files which failed when sorting. On a successful run, this will be 0 and exit w/ success, but if any errors occur, this will be incremented. In check mode, this is fails + unsorted.

Wraps fs calls in trycatch to not throw and to count failures. Also better messages and script usage

fisker · 2023-01-30T13:27:06Z

👎 For increasing complex. Can't get why we need these changes.

fisker · 2023-01-30T13:29:39Z

Even if we want a better error message, we can just try/catch those possible errors and print a friendly message.

aarondill · 2023-01-30T13:30:35Z

I have rebased this onto keithamus/master and removed extra changes to make the diff slightly clearer. The history is a bit of a mess, I could clean it up if you'd like, but I figure it'll get squashed in the merge anyways.

This builds on 281 by improving the developer experience when using the CLI in shell scripts. You can read the changes in the new section of the readme, but it boils down to this:

Wrap common failure points in try catch and report errors without failing
Fully utilize stdout and stderr. This, for example, allows for sort-package-json **/package.json 2>/dev/null to output only success
Change the output depending on tty presence. This allows the user all the information, but gives only important information to scripts utilizing this, allowing for easier parsing.
- If there is not a tty
  - stderr contains only files which failed in either mode: sort-package-json **/package.json 2>&1 1>/dev/null | look-for-certain-failed-files
  - stdout contains files which were successful, in check mode, these are files which are already sorted.
- With a tty
  - stderr contains files which failed, and the Error.message which came with them
  - stdout contains the files which were successful, with human readable messages (ie package.json was sorted!)

aarondill · 2023-01-30T13:36:05Z

-1 For increasing complex. Can't get why we need these changes.

This does increase complexity, but it allows for much easier scripting, without difficult parsing. which is especially difficult if all messages are outputted to stdout.
Even if we decide to simplify to the extreme, we should still at least ensure that expected errors don't halt the program and that error messages are outputted to stderr rather than stdout.

keithamus · 2023-01-30T15:14:30Z

Don't mind untidy history, as long as the diff+description makes up for it 😉.

I see where you're going with this, and I don't mind improving the output for scripts, but I think we can perhaps improve error messaging in general. Let's first get better error messages in the general case, then let's work to figure out a way to make error messages more parseable. TTY detection is a bit too much magic for my preference.

fisker · 2023-02-01T01:52:08Z

I'd like to do a refactor.

aarondill · 2023-02-01T01:54:39Z

That seems like a good idea

fisker · 2023-02-01T02:45:30Z

@aarondill c5dd2cc WDYT?

aarondill · 2023-02-01T02:54:41Z

It looks good. To clarify, this doesn’t affect any of the output, correct? I didn’t see any changes in the snapshot

aarondill · 2023-02-01T02:58:45Z

also, this seems slightly overly verbose:

      isCheck
        ? `${status.failedFilesCount} files could not be checked.`
        : `${status.failedFilesCount} files could not be sorted.`,

perhaps this could be simplified to

`${status.failedFilesCount} files could not be ${isCheck ? 'checked' : 'sorted'}.`

potentially on the next line as well.

This is entirely stylistic though, and may be better in its current state if we ever plan to change these output statements

fisker · 2023-02-01T03:10:17Z

Not changed.

That's why I wrote like this.

fisker · 2023-02-01T03:33:12Z

Here comes the actual message change. b22d474

Good?

aarondill · 2023-02-01T04:04:34Z

Perhaps use template strings, rather than the console.log format strings(%s), in case our implementation of the log function changes in the future

aarondill · 2023-02-01T04:05:06Z

The message change itself looks good

fisker · 2023-02-01T04:18:09Z

in case our implementation of the log function changes in the future

We can still use util.format.

fisker · 2023-02-01T04:40:06Z

I extracted reporter to a separate file, you can just add changes to that file if you still want do the TTY thing, but I suggest we should keep things simple.

aarondill · 2023-02-01T04:51:31Z

For now, lets keep it simple, especially since @keithamus has said they prefer it that way

fisker · 2023-02-01T10:11:26Z

@aarondill We need update https://github.com/keithamus/sort-package-json#usage, since output changed.
