# stack-utils
> Captures and cleans stack traces.
[![Linux Build](https://travis-ci.org/tapjs/stack-utils.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/tapjs/stack-utils) [![Build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/fb9i157knoixe3iq/branch/master?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/jamestalmage/stack-utils-oiw96/branch/master) [![Coverage](https://coveralls.io/repos/tapjs/stack-utils/badge.svg?branch=master&service=github)](https://coveralls.io/github/tapjs/stack-utils?branch=master)
Extracted from `lib/stack.js` in the [`node-tap` project](https://github.com/tapjs/node-tap)
## Install
```
$ npm install --save stack-utils
```
## Usage
```js
const StackUtils = require('stack-utils');
const stack = new StackUtils({cwd: process.cwd(), internals: StackUtils.nodeInternals()});
console.log(stack.clean(new Error().stack));
// outputs a beutified stack trace
```
## API
### new StackUtils([options])
Creates a new `stackUtils` instance.
#### options
##### internals
Type: `array` of `RegularExpression`s
A set of regular expressions that match internal stack stack trace lines which should be culled from the stack trace.
`StackUtils.nodeInternals()` returns a relatively set of sensible defaults for use on the node platform.
##### cwd
Type: `string`
The path to the current working directory. File names in the stack trace will be shown relative to this directory.
### StackUtils.nodeInternals()
Returns an array of regular expressions that be used to cull lines from the stack trace that reference common Node.js internal files.
### stackUtils.clean(stack)
Cleans up a stack trace by deleting any lines that match the `internals` passed to the constructor, and shortening file names relative to `cwd`.
Returns a `string` with the cleaned up stack (always terminated with a `\n` newline character).
#### stack
*Required*
Type: `string` or an `array` of `string`s
### stackUtils.capture([limit], [startStackFunction])
Captures the current stack trace, returning an array of `CallSite`s. There are good overviews of the available CallSite methods [here](https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki/Stack%20Trace%20API#customizing-stack-traces), and [here](https://github.com/sindresorhus/callsites#api).
#### limit
Type: `number`
Default: `Infinity`
Limits the number of lines returned by dropping all lines in excess of the limit. This removes lines from the stack trace.
#### startStackFunction
Type: `function`
The function where the stack trace should start. The first line of the stack trace will be the function that called `startStackFunction`. This removes lines from the end of the stack trace.
### stackUtils.captureString([limit], [startStackFunction])
Captures the current stack trace, cleans it using `stackUtils.clean(stack)`, and returns a string with the cleaned stack trace. It takes the same arguments as `stackUtils.capture`.
### stackUtils.at([startStackFunction])
Captures the first line of the stack trace (or the first line after `startStackFunction` if supplied), and returns a `CallSite` like object that is serialization friendly (properties are actual values instead of getter functions).
The available properties are:
- `line`: `number`
- `column`: `number`
- `file`: `string`
- `constructor`: `boolean`
- `evalOrigin`: `string`
- `native`: `boolean`
- `typename`: `string`
- `function`: `string`
- `method`: `string`
### stackUtils.parseLine(line)
Parses a `string` (which should be a single line from a stack trace), and generates an object with the following properties:
- `line`: `number`
- `column`: `number`
- `file`: `string`
- `constructor`: `boolean`
- `evalOrigin`: `string`
- `evalLine`: `number`
- `evalColumn`: `number`
- `evalFile`: `string`
- `native`: `boolean`
- `function`: `string`
- `method`: `string`
