These steps cover the writing and running of your application:

1. From your Terminal/console application, create a new directory called ~/projects/go-programming-cookbook/chapter4/errwrap and navigate to this directory.
2. Run the following command:

$ go mod init github.com/PacktPublishing/Go-Programming-Cookbook-Second-Edition/chapter4/errwrap

You should see a file called go.mod that contains the following:

module github.com/PacktPublishing/Go-Programming-Cookbook-Second-Edition/chapter4/errwrap    

3. Copy tests from ~/projects/go-programming-cookbook-original/chapter4/errwrap, or use this as an exercise to write some of your own code!
4. Create a file called errwrap.go with the following content:

        package errwrap

        import (
            "fmt"

            "github.com/pkg/errors"
        )
        
        // WrappedError demonstrates error wrapping and
        // annotating an error
        func WrappedError(e error) error {
            return errors.Wrap(e, "An error occurred in WrappedError")
        }

        // ErrorTyped is a type of error we can check against
        type ErrorTyped struct{
            error
        }

        // Wrap shows what happens when we wrap an error
        func Wrap() {
            e := errors.New("standard error")

            fmt.Println("Regular Error - ", WrappedError(e))

            fmt.Println("Typed Error - ", 
            WrappedError(ErrorTyped{errors.New("typed error")}))

            fmt.Println("Nil -", WrappedError(nil))

        }

5. Create a file called unwrap.go with the following content:

        package errwrap

        import (
            "fmt"

            "github.com/pkg/errors"
        )

        // Unwrap will unwrap an error and do
        // type assertion to it
        func Unwrap() {

            err := error(ErrorTyped{errors.New("an error occurred")})
            err = errors.Wrap(err, "wrapped")
        
            fmt.Println("wrapped error: ", err)

            // we can handle many error types
            switch errors.Cause(err).(type) {
            case ErrorTyped:
                fmt.Println("a typed error occurred: ", err)
            default:
                fmt.Println("an unknown error occurred")
            }
        }

        // StackTrace will print all the stack for
        // the error
        func StackTrace() {
            err := error(ErrorTyped{errors.New("an error occurred")})
            err = errors.Wrap(err, "wrapped")

            fmt.Printf("%+v
", err)
        }

6. Create a new directory named example and navigate to it.

7. Create a main.go file with the following content:

        package main

        import (
            "fmt"

            "github.com/PacktPublishing/
             Go-Programming-Cookbook-Second-Edition/
             chapter4/errwrap"
        )

        func main() {
            errwrap.Wrap()
            fmt.Println()
            errwrap.Unwrap()
            fmt.Println()
            errwrap.StackTrace()
        }

8. Run go run main.go.
9. You may also run the following commands:

$ go build
$ ./example

You should now see the following output:

$ go run main.go
Regular Error - An error occurred in WrappedError: standard 
error
Typed Error - An error occurred in WrappedError: typed error
Nil - <nil>

wrapped error: wrapped: an error occurred
a typed error occurred: wrapped: an error occurred

an error occurred
github.com/PacktPublishing/Go-Programming-Cookbook-Second- 
Edition/chapter4/errwrap.StackTrace
/Users/lothamer/go/src/github.com/agtorre/go-
cookbook/chapter4/errwrap/unwrap.go:30
main.main
/tmp/go/src/github.com/agtorre/go-
cookbook/chapter4/errwrap/example/main.go:14

10. The go.mod file should be updated and the go.sum file should now be present in the top-level recipe directory.
11. If you copied or wrote your own tests, then go up one directory and run go test. Ensure that all the tests pass.
