Similar packages

Other packages similar to callsite

stack-trace

The 'stack-trace' package provides similar functionality to 'callsite' by allowing developers to get stack traces of V8 JavaScript engines. It offers more detailed control over the stack trace, such as filtering and mapping of stack frames. Compared to 'callsite', 'stack-trace' might offer a more comprehensive API for working with stack traces.

error-stack-parser

This package is designed to parse and extract stack traces from Error objects. While 'callsite' focuses on accessing the current call stack directly, 'error-stack-parser' is more about analyzing stack traces from existing Error objects. It can be particularly useful for error handling and logging.
