Calendar error loading from serverside


Topic: Calendar error loading from serverside

Odhran pro premium priority asked 5 years ago

I populate the calendar with items from our serverside API - items are returned as JSON. If there is a JSON error returned from the API, I want to catch the error and redirect to another page.

I cannot figure out how to access the error returned from the API - is there an onError method or something similar? What JSON format should the error data returned from the API take?

This is the jquery we are using to call our API, however the failure method is never called. https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/jquery/odhran/1722052

The API returns this JSON if there is an error: {"success":false,"message":"Unauthorized"}

@Odhran,

To get data form API and call a function after catch an error you can use:

fetch('something.json').then(function(response) {
return response.json();
}).then(function(json) {
let result = json;
initialize(result);
}).catch(function(err) {
console.log('error');//your function after error
});

Best

How does that integrate with the calendar control?

@Odhran,

When you get the data from the API, you can use js code from our examples and fill 'events' with your date and etc. https://mdbootstrap.com/plugins/jquery/full-calendar/#example

events: [{
        title: title from API,
        start: your date,
        end: your date
    },

Best,
