Question: Error handling

[twinone]

I've been searching through the docs but I can only find something like "all errors are emitted on the bot object".

How can I catch them?
Maybe it's an idea to write a very small sample of error catching so that the process doesn't crash when a network error occurs.

Thanks!

Yes, errors are emitted as error events on the bot object; you can get them by listening to those events:

bot.on("error", (err) => {
  // TODO
});

If you don't register any listeners, Node.JS exits when an error event is emitted.

If you want to catch errors when sending a message, you can do so with the then() method (in which case the event is not emitted at all).

PS: Network errors when retrieving updates are emitted as updateError instead since they're retried.
