Make errors distinguishable #25

Closed tjconcept closed 6 years ago

tjconcept commented 6 years ago

Could the errors (particularly maxBuffer exceeded) have specific classes so that they can more easily be caught downstream?

I'm wondering if there's a reason you're not using this pattern? Do you normally use the message to decide which errors to handle and which to pass through?

No reason other than not thinking about it. PR welcome.
