Motivation
This is a simple, yet useful, change. Giving customers the ability to pass an errorContext prop to the ErrorBoundary component could improve the triaging experiencing of the error. Take this for example:
In the component above both ListItem elements are capable of producing an error, and when doing so they would both have the same componentStack reported by react, but since the item prop was added to the error’s context then in Datadog it would be possible to determine which component threw the error.
