Copy an errorjs-error object.

Installation

$ npm install utils-copy-error

Usage

var copy = require( 'utils-copy-error' );

copy( error )

Copy an errorjs-error object.

var err1 = new TypeError( 'beep' );

var err2 = copy( err1 );
// returns <TypeError>

Notes

• Supported built-in error types:

-	[`Error`][js-error]
- 	[`URIError`][js-uri-error]
-	[`ReferenceError`][js-reference-error]
-	[`SyntaxError`][js-syntax-error]
-	[`RangeError`][js-range-error]
-	[`EvalError`][js-eval-error]
-	[`TypeError`][js-type-error]
-	[`System Error`][node-system-error] (Node.js)

• The function also supports custom errorjs-error types which are Errorjs-error instances (e.g., ES2015 subclasses).
• The function deep copiesutils-copy over all enumerable properties, including property descriptors.

Examples

var copy = require( 'utils-copy-error' );

var err1;
var err2;

err1 = new Error( 'beep' );
err2 = copy( err1 );

console.log( err1 === err2 );
// returns false

console.log( err1.message === err2.message );
// returns true

err1 = new TypeError( 'bad type' );
err2 = copy (err1 );

console.log( err1 === err2 );
// returns false

console.log( err1.stack === err2.stack );
// returns true

err1 = new RangeError( 'invalid value' );
err2 = copy( err1 );

console.log( err1 === err2 );
// returns false

console.log( err1.name === err2.name );
// returns true
