Keys are property names that are + looked up on the error message, and then passed to function values. + - `line`: if specified and is a function, return value is added as a stack + entry (error-ex will indent for you). Passed the property value given + the key. + - `stack`: if specified and is a function, passed the value of the property + using the key, and the raw stack lines as a second argument. Takes no + return value (but the stack can be modified directly). + - `message`: if specified and is a function, return value is used as new + `.message` value upon get. Passed the property value of the property named + by key, and the existing message is passed as the second argument as an + array of lines (suitable for multi-line messages). + +Returns a constructor (Function) that can be used just like the regular Error +constructor. + +```javascript +var errorEx = require('error-ex'); + +var BasicError = errorEx(); + +var NamedError = errorEx('NamedError'); + +// -- + +var AdvancedError = errorEx('AdvancedError', { + foo: { + line: function (value, stack) { + if (value) { + return 'bar ' + value; + } + return null; + } + } +} + +var err = new AdvancedError('hello, world'); +err.foo = 'baz'; +throw err; + +/* + AdvancedError: hello, world + bar baz + at tryReadme() (readme.js:20:1) +*/ +``` + +#### `errorEx.line(str)` +Creates a stack line using a delimiter + +> This is a helper function.
