No 'error' event

No 'error' event

[dominictarr]

json is not a parser that can accept errors.
If you get unbalanced brackets it totally changes the meaning of the structure.
Node streams can only have one error event. You should think of errors like another flavor of 'end' event.

[dominictarr]

hmm, this might need a try catch some where - would be happy to merge a PR for this

[gchauvet]

Yes, I work on a PR for this

[oleg-koval]

@gchauvet have You resolved this problem? thanks

[gchauvet]

Hi,

My apologies, I'm busy on another projects...
The "jsonparse" library works synchronously (uses of 'throw' instructions), but theses exceptions are not catched by JSONStream who works in asynchronous mode (streaming).

I think the error handling is in place here:

https://github.com/dominictarr/JSONStream/blob/master/index.js#L108

and it emits an error but I can confirm that it does not work.

[dominictarr]

@vanthome can you make short runnable script to demonstrate this?

[gchauvet]

Note: jsonparse doesn't export "toknam" function

[smasher164]

I am also having this issue. @gchauvet just wondering if your fork emits the correct "error" event.

[gchauvet]

@smasher164 Did you have tested my fork ?
In my use cases yes, but I waiting feedbacks from other users

[smasher164]

@gchauvet Sorry for the late response. I did test your fork, and I don't think an 'error' event is being emitted. Here is a test with an incorrect input for the parse method.

.pipe(JSONStream.parse('slkfsldf'))
.on('error', function(error) {
    console.log(error);
})

The program halts there immediately, without anything logged.

[gchauvet]

Okay, I've an error in my patch, I fixed it. Can you retry ?
Note: If you have a fully corrupted stream, you will get multiple error events.
(I've not tested JSONStream.parse with unvalid parameters)

[smasher164]

Ahh, that makes more sense now. I retried it with the latest commit, but as expected, I still don't see an error logged. But what is a test-case where the error is caused by JSONStream and not something else?

[gchauvet]

Take a look to issues.js. This test case contains only issue #66 (bad stream) for the moment.

Your case with unvalid parameters to JSONStream.parse seems not tested in other UT.

[smasher164]

Sorry about that! Just tested your commit with a gzip instead, and the error is in fact logged! 👍

request.get("http://nodestreams.com/input/people.json.gz")
    .pipe(JSONStream.parse("*"))
    .on('error', function(error) {
        console.log(error);
    });

returns

[dominictarr]

hmm, that is not right! It should take stop on the first error!

[gchauvet]

Hmm, some parsers can manage many errors in a file, by using a look ahead error recovery mechanism. In this case, we have a "partial" stream (some data are parsed) and others emits an error event.

Moreover, I don't read in node.js handbook than one, and only one error must be emitted by a stream ?

Note: this doesn't concern jsonparser library ;)
