Immediate-error

This is a utility to throw an error.

const { immediateError, ErrorType } = require('immediate-error')

immediateError() // this will throw a regular Error with the default message of "ERROR!"

immediateError('Aaaaah') // this will throw a regular Error with the message "Aaaaah"

immediateError('Aaaaah', ErrorType.BaseError) // does the same thing as above

immediateError('Aggregate error', ErrorType.AggregateError) // throws an AggregateError

immediateError('Assertion error', ErrorType.AssertionError) // throws an AssertionError (from the assert-fn module)

immediateError('Assertion error', ErrorType.NativeAssertionError) // throws an AssertionError (from the node:assert module)

immediateError('Range error', ErrorType.RangeError) // throws a RangeError

immediateError('Reference error', ErrorType.ReferenceError) // throws a ReferenceError

immediateError('Syntax error', ErrorType.SyntaxError) // throws a SyntaxError

immediateError('type error', ErrorType.TypeError) // throws a TypeError

class MyCustomError extends Error {
  constructor (message) {
    super("Custom: " + message)
  }
}

immediateError('Error!', MyCustomError) // throws a MyCustomError with the message "Error!" which in turn prints out "Custom: Error!" because we used our own error class

Why?

This module is great because it uses the best practices in JavaScript such as using dependencies like yanoop to throw errors and using es-errors instead of using the error classes natively.
