Koa send status 404 every time is

Question

export async function getPlaces(ctx, next) {
    const { error, data } = await PlaceModel.getPlaces(ctx.query);
    console.log(error, data);
    if (error) {
        return ctx.throw(422, error);
    }
    ctx.body = data;
}

Koa everytime sends 404 status and empty body, what i'm doing wrong ?

Answer 1

In seems that, await does not really "wait" and therefore returns too early (this results in a 404 error).

One reason for that could be that your PlaceModel.getPlaces(ctx.query) does not returns a promise. So it continues without waiting on results from getPlaces.

I also had this issue, and resolved it by adding :

ctx.status = 200;

directly below

ctx.body = data;

You've got to wire up your function with the router. Here's a little example how it works:

import * as Koa from "koa";
import * as Router from "koa-router";

let app = new Koa();
let router = new Router();

async function ping(ctx) {
  ctx.body = "pong";
  ctx.status = 200;
}

router.get("/ping", ping);

app.use(router.routes());
app.listen(8080);

Answer 4

Maybe you have middleware that is being triggered before this async function, but that middleware isn't async.

1. If you have any non-async middleware that gets called before this function, convert it to async.

2. Instead of calling next(); in the async middleware, call await next(); even if it is the last line of the middleware function.

in my case while using koa router i had forgotten to add

app.use(router.routes())

just above

app.listen(port)
