invalid_feed: Cannot parse${this.url} XML

[dytra]

Hello I'm trying to listen to this specific feed url : https://cointelegraph.com/rss

The first try it has no problem

But after some view minutes, it seems the website have some sort off protection

That's ok for me, but the problem is the library throws error that makes my app crashed

Error Message:

/home/dytra/home/coinblitz/coinalert/node_modules/rss-feed-emitter/src/Feed.js:162
        this.handleError(new FeedError(`Cannot parse ${this.url} XML`, 'invalid_feed', this.url));

  feed: 'https://cointelegraph.com/rss'
}

Here's my code

const RssFeedEmitter = require('rss-feed-emitter');
const feeder = new RssFeedEmitter({ userAgent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:97.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/97.0' });

        feeder.add({
            url: [
                                'https://decrypt.co/feed',
                'https://cointelegraph.com/rss',
            ],
            refresh: 5000
        });

        feeder.on('new-item', function (item) {
            console.log(item);

        })

I would be happy if the library just continue to fetch the rss, and if there's an error occured, just ignore the feed url and just continue the loop without crashing my app

never mind, my bad I didn't read the full documentation

I can use the feeder.on('error', console.error); event

yeah, you need to handle errors. have a great day!

[TobiTenno]

you'll probably want to on error remove the url that errors. as you can see, there's a "feed" field on the error to make that easier for you.
