err
)Print a line to the stderr
Write parameters to stderr with a trailing new line character.
err string to write -> <stderr>
» err Hello, World!
Hello, World!
err
outputs as string
data-type. This can
be changed by casting
err { "Code": 404, "Message": "Page not found" } ? cast json
However passing structured data-types along the stderr stream is not
recommended as any other function within your code might also pass error
messages along the same stream and thus taint your structured data. This
is why Murex does not supply a tout
function for stderr.
The recommended solution for passing messages like these which you want
separate from your stdout stream is to create a new Murex named
pipe.
» pipe --create messages
» bg { <messages> -> pretty }
» tout <messages> json { "Code": 404, "Message": "Page not found" }
» pipe --close messages
{
"Code": 404,
"Message": "Page not found"
}
err
supports ANSI constants.
