I have written an Http Interceptor in Angular 6 . The goal is to reload the home page when 302 status is returned. (any back end API returning 302 status ) I am currently not able to understand why the Interceptor is behaving the way it is.
Below is the code :
@Injectable()
export class ResponseHandler implements HttpInterceptor{
constructor(){
}
intercept(request: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler): Observable<HttpEvent<any>> {
return next.handle(request).pipe(
map((event: HttpEvent<any>) => {
if(event instanceof HttpResponse){
if(event.status === 302){
console.log('HttpResponse 302 status ');
window.location.reload();
return EMPTY;
}
}
})
)
}
}
Actual Behaviour :
1)I am first accessing the home page explicitly. (e.g: /home)
2)But the strange thing is , the initial call to fetch home age itself is not happening
3)It seems request is blocked reaching the server.
4)When interceptor is removed , this initial call is happening (/home)
I am not able to understand why is this behaviour ?
Why the request is getting blocked as I am NOT tampering with request it should be passed as is to back end rest end point .
It should be intercepted only when HttpResponse is returned with 302 error code .
Can anybody please help here ?
The problem is that you forgot to return value in map operator. The main goal of map operator is to modify data and RETURN it back.
map((event: HttpEvent<any>) => {
if(event instanceof HttpResponse){
if(event.status === 302){
console.log('HttpResponse 302 status ');
window.location.reload();
return EMPTY;
}
}
return event; // here you return value back
})
