How to verify if the given torrentId is valid?

[Shai1436]

Is there any out of the box function to check if the given torrentId/magnetURI is valid before adding it to the client?
Will client.on('error', function (err) {}) API be called in those cases?
If not what is the best way to do it?

Yep, the error event will be called

Hey @Shai1436,

As @KayleePop has said, there is no out of the box solution for checking if a identifier is valid before adding it to the client, but the error event will be emitted from the client if a identifier isn't valid after being added to the client.

Note: if torrent.on('error', ()=>{}) is listened to, the error event will be emitted here instead of from the client.
