TypeScript Definitions for check-error

This repository is like a staging area so I can easily test type definitions before submitting to DefinitelyTyped.

According to the project's readme, check-error is a package for retrieving an Error's information such as its message or constructor name. It can also check whether two Errors are compatible based on their messages, constructors, or instances.

This library has been branched off from Chai assertion library. As of this writing, it has not received any updates since October 2016, but the main Chai assertion library still depends on it as of v4.2.0.

Notes

On Windows, if you want dtslint to stop complaining about the lack of NPM packages with a matching name, you need to:

1. Add curl to the PATH.
2. Monkey patch the download-file-sync package in node_modules by adding --ssl-no-revoke to the list of arguments passed by child_process to curl.

If this really annoys you, create an issue regarding this to dts-critic.
