Error handling

Each database operation returns an error object in the callback function:

• On success, null will be returned
• On error, the error object is populated.

Error Object

Error objects are of class AerospikeError and include the following properties:

• code — The operation status.
• message — The message corresponding to an error code. Can be an empty string if the operation completed successfully.
• func — The function in which the error occurred. Can be NULL if not captured properly in the operation.
• file — The file in which the error occurred. Can be NULL if not captured properly in the operation.
• line — The line number in the file in which the error occurred. Can be 0 if not captured properly in the operation.

Note

For server-side error codes, refer to the status module in the API documentation.

This example handles an error from a put() operation:

try {
 await client.put(key, bins);
} catch (error) {
 console.error("error: %s [%d]\n%s", error.message, error.code, error.stack);
 process.exit(-1);
}
