npm version Build Status Coverage Status

Make a color-coded stack trace from an error

const neatStack = require('neat-stack');
const request = require('request');

request('foo', err => console.error(neatStack(err)));

example

Useful for CLI applications — stack traces are not very important for end users but needed for authors to receive meaningful bug reports.

Use npm.

npm install neat-stack

API

const neatStack = require('neat-stack');

neatStack(error)

error: Error

const error = new Error('Hi');

error.stack; /* => `Error: Hi
