THROWIF

The THROWIF command is a very simple tool which throws an exception if the contained statement is true.

By default the error message is Gor throw on: <condition>. Use -m to give a custom message. The error also includes the header and the row that triggered the exception.

Usage

gor ... | THROWIF [<options>] <condition>

Options

-retriable	If set an retriable exception is thrown.
-m <message>	Use <message> as the error message instead of Gor throw on: <condition>. Quote the message if it contains spaces.

Examples

Fail with a custom message:

gorrow chr1,1 | calc status 'unmapped' | THROWIF -m 'liftover failed' status != 'mapped'

The error report contains (command source and stack trace omitted):

==== Data Error ====
liftover failed

Header: chrom        pos     status
Row: chr1    1       unmapped
