To make synchronous requests in Node.js, we use the sync-request module.
For instance, we write
const request = require("sync-request");
//...
try {
const res = request("GET", url);
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
}
to call request to make a get request to url.
We use the catch block to catch any request errors.
To fix TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON in Node.js, we avoid stringifying the req object with JSON.stringify.
For instance, we write
console.log(req);
to call console.log to log the req object which has a circular structure.
To fix TypeError: firebase.storage is not a function with Node Firebase, we import the firebase/storage module.
For instance, we write
import firebase from "firebase/app";
import "firebase/storage";
firebase.initializeApp({
//...
});
const storageRef = firebase.storage().ref();
to import the firebase/storage module with
import "firebase/storage";
Then we can call firebase.storage.
To fix Node.js only processing six requests at a time, we can increase the max number of sockets.
To do this, we write
http.globalAgent.maxSockets = 20;
to increase the max number of simultaneous requests to 20.
to check in Node if module exists and if exists to load, we add a try-catch block.
For instance, we write
try {
const m = require("/home/test_node_project/per");
} catch (ex) {
handleErr(ex);
}
to call require to require the /home/test_node_project/per module.
If the module can’t be included, then the catch block runs.
