Angular - ErrorHandler for interceptor for custom HTTP error handling

Question

I had a clarification on usage of intercepting ErrorHandler for handling custom error for HTTP requests and client side errors in Angular 6+.

Its getting called correctly for client side errors. But for HTTP errors custom error handler not getting called when there is a error handler added HTTP request subscriber(See below code). Same time custom error handler get called when error handler removed from subscriber. Is that expected behavior. Couldn't find any doc related to that in Angular doc.

.subscribe(
  success => {
    this.processGetChart(success);
  },
  error => {
    this.errors = error;
    console.log('API Error: ', error);
  },
  () => {
  }
  );

Thanks,

Peter

Sorry, but your question is very unclear. Try to reword it completely. A good pattern is: I'm executing this code: <code>. I expect the following to happen: <...>. But instead here's what happens: <...>. — JB Nizet

Yes, it is expected that when you handle the error then you have caught it and it will not go any further unless you rethrow it. — Michael Karén

You can have an HttpInterceptor

And inside, you catch the different types of error.

like this one :

@Injectable()
export class customInterceptor implements HttpInterceptor {

  constructor() {
  }

  intercept(request: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler): Observable<HttpEvent<any>> {

    return next.handle(request).pipe(
      tap((event: HttpEvent<any>) => {
        }, (err: any) => {
          if (err instanceof HttpErrorResponse) {
            if (err.status === 403 || err.status === 401) {
              // DO SOMETHING HERE.
            }
          }
        }
      )
    );
  }
}
