The assertEx
function is a utility function for simple null/undefined checks for variables. It evaluates an expression for truthiness and throws an error if the expression is false.
Here are some examples of how to use assertEx
in different scenarios:
Basic usage:
import { assertEx } from '@xylabs/assert';
const value = getValue(); // This is a function that may return null or undefined
assertEx(value); // Throws an AssertExError with a default message if value is null or undefined
Using with a custom error message:
import { assertEx } from '@xylabs/assert';
const value = getValue(); // This function may return null or undefined
assertEx(value, () => 'Dynamic error message based on some conditions'); // Throws an AssertExError with a dynamic message if value is null or undefined
