🚧 Interfaces are not yet finalized and are subject to change

This crate is intended as a visual reporting diagnostic for tools which operate on text sources.

The source_error::Error type provides a helpful Display and can be used on in any Error context

use source_error::{from_file, Position};
use std::error::Error;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
    println!(
        "{}",
        from_file(
            "whoopsie!",
            "path/to/some/file.json",
            Position::new(3, 4)
        )?
    );
    Ok(())
}
