Angular - RxJs ForkJoin How To Continue Multiple Requests Even After A Error

Question

I am querying a single API endpoint multiple times except with different parameters. For what ever reason some of these requests may fail and return a 500 error. If they do i still want the other requests to carry on and return me the data of all the successfull requests.

let terms = [];
terms.push(this.category.category);
terms = terms.concat(this.category.interests.map((x) => x.category));

for (let i = 0; i < terms.length; i++) {

    const params = {
        term: terms[i],
        mode: 'ByInterest'
    };


    const request = this.evidenceService.get(this.job.job_id, params).map((res) => res.interactions);

    this.requests.push(request);

}

const combined = Observable.forkJoin(this.requests);

combined.subscribe((res) => {
    this.interactions = res;
});

Answer 1

You could use rxjs catchError :

const request = this.evidenceService.get(this.job.job_id, params)
.pipe(map((res) => res.interactions),
catchError(error => of(undefined)));
