How to catch Chrome error net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND in XMLHttpRequest?

问题

I want to create chrome extension which will be able to read local files and use code wrote in them. My simplyfied code is:

const readFile = (filePath) => {
  return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
    const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
    xhr.onerror = (error) => {
      reject(error)
    }
    xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
      if (xhr.readyState === 4) {
        resolve(xhr.response)
      }
    }
    xhr.ontimeout = function () {
      reject('timeout')
    }
    xhr.open('GET', filePath)
    xhr.send()
  })
}

async function () {
    const code = await readFile(jsFilePath)
    console.log(code)
}

This code successfully works when my filePath is correct. But when it is not Chrome console throws this error:

GET file:///home/maxim/Documents/test.jsa net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

Usual try/catch block doesn't work

async function () {
  try {
    const code = await readFile(jsFilePath)
    console.log(code)
  } catch (e) {
    console.log(e)
  }
}

How can I catch this type of errors?

回答1:

First of all net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND is a browser error (see Chromium/Chrome error list, Chrome fail error codes, so you cannot catch it with JS code.

Specifically net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND "does not indicate a fatal error. Typically this error will be generated as a notification".

So the best approach is to attach onloadend handler to XMLHttpRequest, triggered on Ajax request complete (either in success or failure).

But you cannot check the status, in fact values of status, statusText and readyState properties of XMLHttpRequest both in the case of file existing and in the case of file not found are always:

status: 0
statusText: ""
readyState: 4

On the contrary you can check the properties response, responseText and responseURL whose value is "" when the file is not found or in other cases:

response: <file content>
responseText: <file content>
responseURL: "file:///..."

Other value to check is event (ProgressEvent) loaded property which has value 0 in case of file not found (or the bytes loaded in other cases).

So the code could be:

const readFile = (filePath) => {
    return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
        const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
        xhr.onloadend = (event) => {
            console.log("xhr.onloadend", event, xhr.status, xhr.statusText, xhr.readyState, xhr);
            if (event.loaded && xhr.response) {
                resolve(xhr.response);
            } else {
                reject("error");
            }
        }
        xhr.open('GET', filePath);
        xhr.send();
    });
}
