Imagine the following syntax error in JSON (, instead of :):
[
{
"name": "anna",
"email": "[email protected]",
"town", "london"
},
...
]
I am wondering if it is possible to handle this error instead of getting an exception, getting the erroneous object, correct the error and go on with the correct version.
Here is a part of my Angular service; I am trying to get text and not JSON data but it does not work...
angular.module('mine', [])
.config(function($sceProvider) {
// Completely disable SCE.
$sceProvider.enabled(false);
})
.config(['$sceDelegateProvider', function($sceDelegateProvider) {
$sceDelegateProvider.resourceUrlWhitelist([
'self',
'http://www.mocky.io/v2/5807df4a10000004122b74e2'
]);
}])
.config(function ($httpProvider) {
$httpProvider.interceptors.push(function($q) {
return {
'request': function(config) {
config.headers.Accept = 'text/plain';
return config;
},
'response': function(response) {
try {
// try to parse it
response.data = JSON.parse(response.data);
} catch (ex) {
// try to fix it
console.log("error " + ex);
console.log(response.data);
response.data = {fixed_data : "data"};
}
// return the corect data.
// note that the original response.data WILL BE CHANGED and this is expected.
return response;
}
};
});
})
angular.module('mine').factory('MyFactory', ['$http','$q', function MyFactory($http,$q) {
return {
getData: function() {
var deferred = $q.defer(),
config = {
params: { }
},
url="http://www.mocky.io/v2/5807df4a10000004122b74e2";
$http.jsonp(url,config)
.then(
function (response) {
deferred.resolve(response.data);
},
function (error) {
console.log(error);
return $q.reject('Error retrieving data');
}
);
return deferred.promise;
}
};
}]);
Is there anyway of directing the above promise into the success callback, retrieving the erroneous JSON and correcting it? How may I code that according to the above example?
Or maybe something easier, how to retrieve text and not JSON data from $http.jsonp as not to be driven to the failure callback?
