Summary
Standardized error handling across the entire codebase using a unified structured pattern. This significantly improves error diagnostics, maintainability, and consistency.
Changes
Phase 2: Error Handling Infrastructure Enhancement (Commit 3970c6f)
Added 9 new helper functions to establish a unified error handling pattern:
NewDownloadError(code, message)- Simple error generationWrapError(underlying, code, message)- Generic error wrappingWrapErrorWithURL(underlying, code, message, url)- Wrapping with URL contextNewValidationError(field, reason)- Field validation errorsNewStorageError(operation, underlying, details)- Storage operation errorsNewConfigError(message, underlying, details)- Configuration errorsNewPluginError(name, underlying, details)- Plugin errorsNewInvalidPathError(path, underlying)- Path errorsFromHTTPStatus(statusCode, url)- Error generation from HTTP statusPhase 3: Migration of All 353 Errors (8 Commits)
Systematically migrated from
fmt.Errorf/errors.Newto structured errors:Total: 353 errors migrated
