WIA-CORE-010 defines a comprehensive, language-agnostic error handling framework that works across all programming languages, platforms, and systems.
Mission: Eliminate error handling chaos. Create universal error codes, severity levels, and recovery strategies that work everywhere.
Coverage: 99 programming languages, 50+ error categories, 4 severity levels, automatic propagation
WIA-{DOMAIN}-{CATEGORY}-{NUMBER}
Examples:
WIA-AUTH-INVALID-001 - Invalid credentialsWIA-DB-CONNECTION-042 - Database connection timeoutWIA-NET-TIMEOUT-015 - Network request timeoutWIA-FILE-NOTFOUND-003 - File not foundSupport for all major programming languages: JavaScript, Python, Java, C++, Rust, Go, and 93 more. One standard, universal adoption.
Comprehensive error categories covering authentication, database, network, file system, validation, and more.
Built-in recovery strategies with retry mechanisms, fallbacks, circuit breakers, and graceful degradation.
Standardized error propagation across service boundaries, microservices, and distributed systems.
Every error includes context, stack traces, correlation IDs, and metadata for debugging and monitoring.
Built-in support for error tracking, aggregation, and analytics across your entire infrastructure.
// JavaScript
import { WIAError, ErrorCode } from '@wia/universal-error-handling';
try {
await authenticateUser(credentials);
} catch (error) {
throw new WIAError({
code: ErrorCode.AUTH_INVALID_001,
message: 'Invalid credentials',
severity: 'ERROR',
context: { userId: user.id },
recovery: 'RETRY_WITH_BACKOFF'
});
}
# Python
from wia_error_handling import WIAError, ErrorCode, Severity
try:
authenticate_user(credentials)
except Exception as e:
raise WIAError(
code=ErrorCode.AUTH_INVALID_001,
message="Invalid credentials",
severity=Severity.ERROR,
context={"user_id": user.id},
recovery="RETRY_WITH_BACKOFF"
)
