API: Mustache.Error

Description

The Mustache.Error field is a class type which matches the type of the Error-derived object thrown by the Mustache interpreter when an error is encountered in the Mustache mark-up file(s). Developers will typically not instantiate this type directly, but rather use it in an exception handling try/catch block.

Layout

• name: string (always equivalent to 'MustacheError')
• message: A developer friendly message about the error that was encountered
• line: The line number the error was encountered on. NOTE that this field is not always present
• character: The character number the error was encountered on. NOTE that this field is not always present
• partial: The partial the error was encountered on. NOTE that this field is only available if the error was encountered in a partial or a higher order section. When triggered from a higher order section, the partial name is mangled and essentially random, so it should not be depended on.

Usage Example

try { 
	Mustache.to_html('{{#no_closing_tag}}This Section has no closing tag', { no_closing_tag: true });
} catch (e) {
	if (e instanceof Mustache.Error) {	
		// A Mustache error occured
	}
}
