How to catch unique field violation Error in NodeJS?

[lucassith]

I'm trying to react to exception where the unique field is already present with given value.

In my unit tests I get following error:

ResponseError: There was a problem with the database: Database index uniqueFieldThatIsUniqueUnitTestalready contains 'some-unique-value', with recordunitTests:qrogd6im2hvocl8ygdq6 at Surreal.create (node_modules/surrealdb/dist/index.cjs:1:51547) at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:105:5) at async SurrealDBPersister.create (/src/lib/surrealdb/surrealdb.persister.ts:19:31) at async /libs/persister/__tests__/surrealdb/surrealdb.persister.spec.ts:88:23

and I see two problems here.

First, this is some generic error which is kind of bearable to handle. But this error is missing the name of the field which violates the unique constraint, making it impossible to figure which one is breaking the constraint.

Is there any way around?
How do you handle it?

I use create(thing: Table | string, data?: U); method.
