It's entirely up to you … personally I would do something like this:
if (response.ok) {
// proceed with normal logic
}
switch (response.status) {
case 404:
throw new NotFoundError();
default:
throw new UnexpectedError();
}
then handle the errors appropriately elsewhere in my code.
try {
await retrieveAndDisplayData();
} catch(err) {
if (err instanceof NotFoundError) {
// handle the case of the data not found
} else if (err instanceof UnexpectedError) {
// potentially log the error to an aggregation system (e.g. Sentry)
// and inform the user that an unexpected error has occurred
// and potentially offer the them the option of a retry
}
// another, truly unexpected, error so throw
throw err;
}
I can not find anything on the web on how to handle actual error messages from the server. I don't just want to display response.statusText or response.status. Does anyone have an example?
