# error-callsites Yet another module for extracting callsites (a.k.a. stack-frames) from Node.js `Error` objects. [![Build status](https://travis-ci.org/watson/error-callsites.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/watson/error-callsites) [![js-standard-style](https://img.shields.io/badge/code%20style-standard-brightgreen.svg?style=flat)](https://github.com/feross/standard) ## Installation ``` npm install error-callsites ``` ## Usage ```js var callsites = require('error-callsites') var err = new Error('foo') var stack = callsites(err) console.log('Error occurred on line', stack[0].getLineNumber()) ``` ## API The module exposes a single function which expects an `Error` object as the first arguemnt: ```js var arr = callsites(err) ``` The function returns an array of callsite objects - one for each frame in the stack trace. ### Callsite object Each element in the returned array is a [V8 callsite object](https://code.google.com/p/v8-wiki/wiki/JavaScriptStackTraceApi#Customizing_stack_traces) and in turn reponds to the following V8 functions: - `callsite.getThis()` - returns the value of this - `callsite.getTypeName()` - returns the type of this as a string. This is the name of the function stored in the constructor field of this, if available, otherwise the object's [[Class]] internal property. - `callsite.getFunction()` - returns the current function - `callsite.getFunctionName()` - returns the name of the current function, typically its name property. If a name property is not available an attempt will be made to try to infer a name from the function's context. - `callsite.getMethodName()` - returns the name of the property of this or one of its prototypes that holds the current function - `callsite.getFileName()` - if this function was defined in a script returns the name of the script - `callsite.getLineNumber()` - if this function was defined in a script returns the current line number - `callsite.getColumnNumber()` - if this function was defined in a script returns the current column number - `callsite.getEvalOrigin()` - if this function was created using a call to eval returns a CallSite object representing the location where eval was called - `callsite.isToplevel()` - is this a toplevel invocation, that is, is this the global object? - `callsite.isEval()` - does this call take place in code defined by a call to eval? - `callsite.isNative()` - is this call in native V8 code? - `callsite.isConstructor()` - is this a constructor call? ## License MIT
