NAME
    Catalyst::Plugin::ErrorCatcher - Catch application errors and emit them
    somewhere

SYNOPSIS
      use Catalyst qw/-Debug StackTrace ErrorCatcher/;

DESCRIPTION
    This plugin allows you to do More Stuff with the information that would
    normally only be seen on the Catalyst Error Screen courtesy of the
    Catalyst::Plugin::StackTrace plugin.

CONFIGURATION
    The plugin is configured in a similar manner to other Catalyst plugins:

      <Plugin::ErrorCatcher>
        enabled     1
        context     5

        emit_module A::Module
      </Plugin::ErrorCatcher>

    enabled
        Setting this to *true* forces the module to work its voodoo.

        It's also enabled if the value is unset and you're running Catalyst
        in debug-mode.

    context
        When there is stack-trace information to share, how many lines of
        context to show around the line that caused the error.

    emit_module
        This specifies which module to use for custom output behaviour.

        You can chain multiple modules by specifying a line in the config
        for each module you'd like used:

            emit_module A::Module
            emit_module Another::Module
            emit_module Yet::Another::Module

        If none are specified, or all that are specified fail, the default
        behaviour is to log the prepared message at the INFO level via
        "$c->log()".

        For details on how to implement a custom emitter see "CUSTOM EMIT
        CLASSES" in this documentation.

CUSTOM EMIT CLASSES
    A custom emit class takes the following format:

      package A::Module;
      # vim: ts=8 sts=4 et sw=4 sr sta
      use strict;
      use warnings;
      
  sub emit {
        my ($class, $c, $output) = @_;
      
    $c->log->info(
          'IGNORING OUTPUT FROM Catalyst::Plugin::ErrorCatcher'
        );
      
    return;
      }
      
  1;
      __END__

    The only requirement is that you have a sub called "emit".

    "Catalyst::Plugin::ErrorCatcher" passes the following parameters in the
    call to "emit()":

    $class
        The package name

    $c  A Context object

    $output
        The processed output from "Catalyst::Plugin::ErrorCatcher"

    If you want to use the original error message you should use:

      my @error = @{ $c->error };

    You may use and abuse any Catalyst methods, or other Perl modules as you
    see fit.

KNOWN ISSUES
    This module has no tests!
