Package description
The caller-callsite npm package allows developers to retrieve information about the call site of the function that called the current function. This can be particularly useful for debugging, logging, and tracking the flow of execution in complex applications. It leverages the V8 stack trace API to provide detailed information about the caller's location in the code.
Getting caller call site information
This feature allows developers to obtain information about the call site of the function that called the current function. The code sample demonstrates how to use caller-callsite to get the file name and line number of the caller function.
const callerCallsite = require('caller-callsite');
function demoFunction() {
const callSite = callerCallsite();
console.log(callSite.getFileName()); // prints the file name of the caller
console.log(callSite.getLineNumber()); // prints the line number of the caller
}
function callerFunction() {
demoFunction();
}
callerFunction();
The 'callsites' package provides functionality similar to caller-callsite by returning an array of call sites (stack frames), allowing developers to inspect the call stack. It differs in that it gives a broader view of the call stack rather than focusing on the immediate caller.
The 'stack-trace' package is another alternative that allows capturing stack traces. While it provides detailed information about the call stack, similar to 'callsites', it also includes features for parsing and working with stack traces, offering a more comprehensive approach compared to caller-callsite.
