CLIError

CLIError is a custom error type provided by @oclif/errors for general command-line interface errors. It can be used to throw errors with a message that will be displayed to the user.

const { CLIError } = require('@oclif/errors');

throw new CLIError('Something went wrong!');

ExitError

ExitError is a custom error type that can be used to exit the process with a specific exit code. This is useful for signaling to the shell or parent process that the command failed with a particular error state.

const { ExitError } = require('@oclif/errors');

throw new ExitError(1);

handle

The handle function is used to catch and handle errors gracefully within an oclif application. It can be used to intercept uncaught exceptions and display a user-friendly message or perform cleanup before exiting.

const { handle } = require('@oclif/errors');

process.on('uncaughtException', error => {
  handle(error);
});
