   It seems that the docs are wrong, makeConstructor actually returns the new constructor instead of storing it in the module, so the proper way to use it would be

   let ValidationError = restifyErrors.makeConstructor('ValidationError', {
       restCode: 'ValidationError',
       statusCode: 400,
       message: message
   });
   var myErr = new errors.ValidationError();

   Restify-errors 7.x makeConstructor doesn't work, I use it normally in 5.x. You can install Restify 7.2.1.

   in older versions the plugin add the constructor, in this version you need add manually

   errs.testerror = errs.makeConstructor('testerror', {
       statusCode: 200,
       message: 'my default message'
   });

   Hi all - what version of restify-errors are you using? This should work on latest 7.0.0 release:

   const errs = require('restify-errors');
   const MyErr = errs.makeConstructor('MyError');
   throw new MyErr('boom');

   /Users/aliu/Sandbox/test/errors.js:3
   throw new MyErr('boom');
   ^
   MyError: boom
       at Object.<anonymous> (/Users/aliu/Sandbox/test/errors.js:3:7)
       at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:701:30)
       at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:712:10)
       at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:600:32)
       at tryModuleLoad (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:539:12)
       at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:531:3)

   Regarding the storing of classes on the exports of the module, that feature was removed in 6.x. Some additional context can be found here:
