# Errors

Undici exposes a variety of error objects that you can use to enhance your error handling.
You can find all the error objects inside the `errors` key.

```js
import { errors } from 'undici'
```

| Error                                | Error Codes                           | Description                                                               |

Be aware of the possible difference between the global dispatcher version and the actual undici version you might be using. We recommend to avoid the check `instanceof errors.UndiciError` and seek for the `error.code === '<error_code>'` instead to avoid inconsistencies.
### `SocketError`

The `SocketError` has a `.socket` property which holds socket metadata:

```ts
interface SocketInfo {
  localAddress?: string
  localPort?: number
  remoteAddress?: string
  remotePort?: number
  remoteFamily?: string
  timeout?: number
  bytesWritten?: number
  bytesRead?: number
}
```

Be aware that in some cases the `.socket` property can be `null`.
