# tryor.js
Give it a function and a default value. `tryor` will give you back the return value of
the function or, in case the function threw an exception, the default value.
Works in node and browsers.
## Usage
```javascript
// do this
var config = tryor(function() {
return JSON.parse(userProvidedConfigString);
}, {});
// instead of
var config; // or var config = {}; and empty catch
try {
config = JSON.parse(userProvidedConfigString);
} catch (e) {
config = {};
}
```
Works extra well with ES6-style `const` variables.
## Installation
### Node
Install using npm
npm install tryor
```javascript
var tryor = require("tryor");
```
### Browser
