NAME
       Mojo::Exception - Exception base class

SYNOPSIS
         # Create exception classes
         package MyApp::X::Foo {
           use Mojo::Base 'Mojo::Exception';
         }
         package MyApp::X::Bar {
           use Mojo::Base 'Mojo::Exception';
         }

         # Throw exceptions and handle them gracefully
         use Mojo::Exception qw(check);
         eval {
           MyApp::X::Foo->throw('Something went wrong!');
         };
         check $@ => [
           'MyApp::X::Foo' => sub { say "Foo: $_" },
           'MyApp::X::Bar' => sub { say "Bar: $_" }
         ];

         # Generate exception classes on demand
         use Mojo::Exception qw(check raise);
         eval {
           raise 'MyApp::X::Name', 'The name Minion is already taken';
         };
         check $@ => [
           'MyApp::X::Name' => sub { say "Name error: $_" },
           default          => sub { say "Error: $_" }
         ];

DESCRIPTION
       Mojo::Exception is a container for exceptions with context information.

FUNCTIONS
       Mojo::Exception implements the following functions, which can be
       imported individually.

   check
         my $bool = check $err => ['MyApp::X::Foo' => sub {...}];

       Process exceptions by dispatching them to handlers with one or more
       matching conditions. Exceptions that could not be handled will be
       rethrown automatically. Note that this function is EXPERIMENTAL and
       might change without warning!

         # Handle various types of exceptions
         eval {
           dangerous_code();
         };
         check $@ => [
           'MyApp::X::Foo'     => sub { say "Foo: $_" },
           qr/^Could not open/ => sub { say "Open error: $_" },
           default             => sub { say "Something went wrong: $_" }
         ];

       Matching conditions can be class names for ISA checks on exception
       objects, or regular expressions to match string exceptions and
       stringified exception objects. The matching exception will be the first
       argument passed to the callback, and is also available as $_.

         # Catch MyApp::X::Foo object or a specific string exception
         eval {
           dangerous_code();
         };
         check $@ => [
           'MyApp::X::Foo'     => sub { say "Foo: $_" },
           qr/^Could not open/ => sub { say "Open error: $_" }
         ];

       An array reference can be used to share the same handler with multiple
       conditions, of which only one needs to match.  And since exception
       handlers are just callbacks, they can also throw their own exceptions.

         # Handle MyApp::X::Foo and MyApp::X::Bar the same
         eval {
           dangerous_code();
         };
         check $@ => [
           ['MyApp::X::Foo', 'MyApp::X::Bar'] => sub { die "Foo/Bar: $_" }
         ];

       There is currently only one keywords you can use to set special
       handlers. The "default" handler is used when no other handler matched.

         # Use "default" to catch everything
         eval {
           dangerous_code();
         };
         check $@ => [
           default => sub { say "Error: $_" }
         ];

   raise
         raise 'Something went wrong!';
         raise 'MyApp::X::Foo', 'Something went wrong!';

       Raise a Mojo::Exception, if the class does not exist yet (classes are
       checked for a "new" method), one is created as a Mojo::Exception
       subclass on demand. Note that this function is EXPERIMENTAL and might
       change without warning!

ATTRIBUTES
       Mojo::Exception implements the following attributes.

   frames
         my $frames = $e->frames;
         $e         = $e->frames([$frame1, $frame2]);

       Stack trace if available.

         # Extract information from the last frame
         my ($package, $filename, $line, $subroutine, $hasargs, $wantarray, $evaltext,
             $is_require, $hints, $bitmask, $hinthash) = @{$e->frames->[-1]};

   line
         my $line = $e->line;
         $e       = $e->line([3, 'die;']);

       The line where the exception occurred if available.

   lines_after
         my $lines = $e->lines_after;
         $e        = $e->lines_after([[4, 'say $foo;'], [5, 'say $bar;']]);

       Lines after the line where the exception occurred if available.

   lines_before
         my $lines = $e->lines_before;
         $e        = $e->lines_before([[1, 'my $foo = 23;'], [2, 'my $bar = 24;']]);

       Lines before the line where the exception occurred if available.

   message
         my $msg = $e->message;
         $e      = $e->message('Died at test.pl line 3.');

       Exception message, defaults to "Exception!".

   verbose
         my $bool = $e->verbose;
         $e       = $e->verbose($bool);

       Show more information with "to_string", such as "frames", defaults to
       the value of the "MOJO_EXCEPTION_VERBOSE" environment variable.

METHODS
       Mojo::Exception inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the
       following new ones.

   inspect
         $e = $e->inspect;
         $e = $e->inspect($source1, $source2);

       Inspect "message", "frames" and optional additional sources to fill
       "lines_before", "line" and "lines_after" with context information.

   new
         my $e = Mojo::Exception->new;
         my $e = Mojo::Exception->new('Died at test.pl line 3.');

       Construct a new Mojo::Exception object and assign "message" if
       necessary.

   to_string
         my $str = $e->to_string;

       Render exception. Note that the output format may change as more
       features are added, only the error message at the beginning is
       guaranteed not to be modified to allow regex matching.

   throw
         Mojo::Exception->throw('Something went wrong!');

       Throw exception from the current execution context.

         # Longer version
         die Mojo::Exception->new('Something went wrong!')->trace;

   trace
         $e = $e->trace;
         $e = $e->trace($skip);

       Generate stack trace and store all "frames", defaults to skipping 1
       call frame.

         # Skip 3 call frames
         $e->trace(3);

         # Skip no call frames
         $e->trace(0);

OPERATORS
       Mojo::Exception overloads the following operators.

   bool
         my $bool = !!$e;

       Always true.

   stringify
         my $str = "$e";

       Alias for "to_string".
