Angular 6 Interceptor not working as expected












0















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 InvalidResponseHandler 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
          })
