Wait until all promises complete even if some rejected

Question

Let\'s say I have a set of Promises that are making network requests, of which one will fail:

// http://does-not-exist will throw a TypeError
va         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem and have solved it in the following way:

const fetch = (url) => {
  return node-fetch(url)
    .then(result => result.json())
    .catch((e) => {
      return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(() => resolve(fetch(url)), timeout));
    });
};

tasks = [fetch(url1), fetch(url2) ....];

Promise.all(tasks).then(......)

In that case Promise.all will wait for every Promise will come into resolved or rejected state.

And having this solution we are "stopping catch execution" in a non-blocking way. In fact, we're not stopping anything, we just returning back the Promise in a pending state which returns another Promise when it's resolved after the timeout.
