Class: FetchTimeoutError

Defined in: fetch/src/errors.ts:25

Error thrown when a fetch request times out via the alarm backstop.

Important: This error is ambiguous - the external API may have processed the request before the timeout. For non-idempotent operations, check the external system's state before retrying.

Example​

@mesh
handleResult(result: ResponseSync | Error) {
  if (result instanceof FetchTimeoutError) {
    // Ambiguous - fetch may have succeeded
    // Check external state before retrying non-idempotent operations
    return;
  }
  if (result instanceof Error) {
    // Definite failure - safe to retry
    return;
  }
  // Success
}
