Error Handling

The Javascript SDK allows developers to implement custom error handling logic.

Default Behaviour​

By default, only some requests will throw. If the response status code is 4xx, then an exception will be thrown. If the response status code is 5xx, then the returned object will contain an error property.

Customise Error Handling​

Axios

The underlying HTTP request provider is Axios.

Server responded with an error​

To change the error handling behaviour, you can replace the error handling function.

Async

customErrorResponseHandler should be an async method.

import { errorHandling } from "cherry.ai";

const customErrorResponseHandler = async (axiosResponse) => {
  console.warn(axiosResponse);
  console.warn(`Server responded: ${axiosResponse.statusText}`);

  throw axiosResponse.data;
};

export const configure = () => {
  errorHandling.setErrorResponseHandler(customErrorResponseHandler);
};
