Core error types for deps-lsp.

Extended from Phase 1 to support multiple ecosystems (Cargo, npm, PyPI). All errors provide structured error handling with source error tracking.

Examples

use deps_core::error::{DepsError, Result};

fn parse_file(content: &str, file_type: &str) -> Result<()> {
    // Parsing errors are automatically wrapped
    if content.is_empty() {
        return Err(DepsError::ParseError {
            file_type: file_type.into(),
            source: Box::new(std::io::Error::new(
                std::io::ErrorKind::InvalidData,
                "empty content"
            )),
        });
    }
    Ok(())
}

Variants

ParseError

Fields

file_type: String

source: Box<dyn Error + Send + Sync>

RegistryError

Fields

package: String

source: Error

CacheError(String)

RateLimited

A registry request was rejected for exceeding a rate limit. Unlike other variants, message is a pre-vetted, IP-free, actionable hint safe to surface verbatim in a per-dependency diagnostic (see Self::fetch_failure) — never build one from a raw registry error body, which can embed the caller’s public IP (github.rs:332-346).

Fields

message: String

PackageNotFound

Fields

package: String

registry: &'static str

HttpStatus

Fields

url: String

status: u16

ApiResponse

Fields

package: String

registry: &'static str

source: Error

ResponseTooLarge

Fields

url: String

limit: usize

InvalidVersionReq(String)

Deliberately shared between two distinct rejection kinds: malformed version-requirement strings (all ecosystems) and malformed Go module paths (deps-go, which has no separate variant for the latter — see its validate_module_path). Nothing in the workspace discriminates on this variant beyond rendering its message, so a consumer-specific split was deferred (#399).

Io(Error)

Json(Error)

UnsupportedEcosystem(String)

AmbiguousEcosystem(String)

InvalidUri(String)

Offline

Returned by deps_core::cache::HttpCache’s 4 send sites (issue #483) when network.offline is set, instead of attempting the request. url is the request that was blocked, for diagnostic/logging purposes.

Fields

url: String

ChainResolutionHalted

A multi-hop alternate/private-index chain’s resolution was halted because a hop returned a genuine transport error (5xx, timeout, connection failure) rather than a clean “not found” — the chain deliberately does not fall through to a further, less trusted hop in this case (deps_pypi’s FR-005(c)/NFR-003(3), #513). Carries no arbitrary error text — mirrors Self::RateLimited’s pre-vetted-message precedent (see Self::fetch_failure’s security-load-bearing invariant) — so its classification there can safely be FetchFailure::Actionable with a fixed, safe message, surfacing this case in hover/diagnostics instead of only a tracing::warn!.

Implementations

impl DepsError

pub const fn is_not_found(&self) -> bool

Returns true when this error means the registry was successfully asked and answered “this package doesn’t exist”, as opposed to the registry not having been answerable at all (network failure, timeout, malformed response, 5xx).

Distinguishing the two matters for diagnostics (#267): a genuine not-found is evidence the package name is wrong, while any other error is evidence only that this particular request failed — reporting the latter as “Unknown package” would mislabel a transient registry outage as a nonexistent dependency. Covers DepsError::PackageNotFound (the ecosystems that map a 404 to it explicitly: npm, PyPI, Go, Swift) and a bare DepsError::HttpStatus with status == 404 (the ecosystems that propagate the raw HTTP status instead: Cargo, Maven, Gradle, Bundler, Dart, Composer, NuGet).

Examples

use deps_core::DepsError;

let not_found = DepsError::PackageNotFound {
    package: "left-pad".into(),
    registry: "npm",
};
assert!(not_found.is_not_found());

let http_404 = DepsError::HttpStatus {
    url: "https://crates.io/api/v1/crates/left-pad".into(),
    status: 404,
};
assert!(http_404.is_not_found());

let outage = DepsError::HttpStatus {
    url: "https://crates.io/api/v1/crates/serde".into(),
    status: 503,
};
assert!(!outage.is_not_found());

let cache_err = DepsError::CacheError("connection reset".into());
assert!(!cache_err.is_not_found());

pub fn fetch_failure(&self) -> FetchFailure

Classifies this error for the per-dependency “registry lookup failed” diagnostic (#478), distinguishing a failure with a safe, actionable hint to show the user from one whose raw text must never reach a diagnostic.

Security-load-bearing invariant: FetchFailure::Actionable is produced only from Self::RateLimited’s pre-vetted, IP-free canned message. Every other variant must classify as FetchFailure::Transient — never call .to_string()/Display on an arbitrary DepsError to build an Actionable value, since a raw HttpStatus or RegistryError body can embed the caller’s public IP (github.rs:332-346, exercised by the github crate’s test_parse_tags_page_github_rate_limit_returns_error).

Examples

use deps_core::error::{DepsError, FetchFailure};

let rate_limited = DepsError::RateLimited { message: "set GITHUB_TOKEN".into() };
assert_eq!(
    rate_limited.fetch_failure(),
    FetchFailure::Actionable("set GITHUB_TOKEN".into())
);

let other = DepsError::CacheError("connection reset".into());
assert_eq!(other.fetch_failure(), FetchFailure::Transient);

pub const fn is_offline(&self) -> bool

Returns true when this error means a request was blocked by network.offline (issue #483), as opposed to any other network or registry failure.

Used by deps_maven::registry to skip poisoning its negative-search-failure cache with an offline block, so toggling network.offline back to false takes effect immediately instead of being masked by RECENT_FAILURE_TTL.

Examples

use deps_core::DepsError;

let offline = DepsError::Offline { url: "https://crates.io/".into() };
assert!(offline.is_offline());

let other = DepsError::CacheError("connection reset".into());
assert!(!other.is_offline());
