Thesis Exceptionally
====================

[](#thesis-exceptionally)

A tiny PHP library that converts errors to exceptions.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require thesis/exceptionally
```

Requires PHP 8.3+.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use function Thesis\exceptionally;

// Converts PHP errors to ErrorException
$content = exceptionally(static fn() => file_get_contents('/path/to/file'));
```

Many PHP functions trigger errors instead of throwing exceptions. This makes error handling inconsistent and cumbersome. `exceptionally()` wraps a callable and converts any triggered error into a native [ErrorException](https://php.net/manual/class.errorexception.php).

### Error suppression operator

[](#error-suppression-operator)

Errors suppressed with `@` are not converted to exceptions:

```
// Does not throw — the error is suppressed
$content = exceptionally(static fn() => @file_get_contents('/path/to/file'));
```

### Filtering by error level

[](#filtering-by-error-level)

By default, all levels except `E_DEPRECATED` and `E_USER_DEPRECATED` are converted. Deprecations typically come from third-party libraries and should not interrupt execution.

You can specify which levels to convert:

```
// Convert notices
$result = exceptionally($function, E_USER_NOTICE);

// Convert warnings and notices
$result = exceptionally($function, E_USER_WARNING | E_USER_NOTICE);

// Convert all, including deprecations
$result = exceptionally($function, E_ALL);
```
