Is there any way to prevent throwing errors on the chrome console if anything goes wrong?-CodePudding

Is there any way to prevent throwing errors on the chrome console if anything goes wrong? I am fetching some data from an API, I want that whenever the user requested data will not exist in the API it just ignore and will not throw red errors on the console, I tried `try-catch but that doesn't work for me... Code:

fetch('https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/api/v2/entries/en/' def)
      .then(res =>{
        if(res.ok){
          return res.json()}
          else {
            speak(`i don\'t know exactly what is ${def}`)

error:

CodePudding user response：

.catch(err => setTimeout(() => console.clear()))

...should do it. The setTimeout bit is necessary. It needs to be placed at the end of the execution queue.

See it working:

fetch('//non-existent-url')
  .catch(err => setTimeout(() => console.clear()))
