Is it safe to (can I) use `HttpError` from 'admin-on-rest/lib/util/HttpError'?



My API provider is sending error messages in the response.body as a ReadableStream as plain text and I need to get admin-on-rest to display those messages to the end user.


response.body



I'm planning to do so like this:


import HttpError from 'admin-on-rest/lib/util/HttpError'
import _ from 'lodash';

function handleError(response)
if (_.isFunction(response.text))
const statusText = response.statusText;
const status = response.status;
return response.text().then(text => );
else throw new Error(response.statusText);



And in my custom REST Client


//...
if (response.status < 200 || response.status >= 300)
return handleError(response);

//...



But I feel that accessing to HttpError directly through 'admin-on-rest/lib/util/HttpError' intead of 'admin-on-rest' is insecure because if the internal implementation changes (or there is a refactor of the internal classes of the framework, etc) my implementation will fail.


HttpError


'admin-on-rest/lib/util/HttpError'


'admin-on-rest'



I cannot do import HttpError from 'admin-on-rest/lib/util/HttpError' because it doesn't work that way. I get __WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0_admin_on_rest___default.a is not a constructor


import HttpError from 'admin-on-rest/lib/util/HttpError'


__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0_admin_on_rest___default.a is not a constructor


HttpError


import HttpError from 'admin-on-rest/lib/util/HttpError'

A simple and safe(er) alternative can be just not to use HttpError at all.


HttpError



Instead do Promise.reject with a simple object as argument, which contains a message and status properties like this:


Promise.reject


message


status


//...
return response.text().then(text =>
return Promise.reject(message: text );
);
//...
