It will be myObject.name
if myObject.message
doesn't exist, or ${myObject.name}: ${myObject.message}
if it does. I think it's the ErrorType
that's tripping me up a bit.

Agreed.
I'd assume this paragraph and the snippet above it have "evolved" separately and have become disjoint.
the actual formula is:
`${myObject.name || 'Error'}${String(myObject.message) ? (': ' + String(myObject.message)) : ''}`
But IMHO `${myObject.name}: ${myObject.message}`
is good enough
@refack , @TimothyGu thanks for the review. I've fixed the line. |
