Standardizing Errors in Go: A Practical Guide with Dapr
summary
Dapr’s errors package (dapr/kit/errors) implements the gRPC Richer Error Model and Google API Errors Model using a builder pattern that creates immutable, enriched errors; it requires ErrorInfo and commonly emits ResourceInfo so callers get app ID, resource type and metadata. Dapr is the 10th largest CNCF project, 53% of users report debugging is hard, and the package is already used in a pubsub example (fake Kafka) to return actionable, one-click friendly error details that improve troubleshooting.
