Nativescript: Debugger.js exception for HTTP requests with no Content-Type

[milannankov]

Hello,

I am getting an error in debugger.js when debugging my app. The app sends HTTP requests some of which happen to have no "Content-Type". This seems to be causing the error.

Error: Error while parsing debug 'response' object. mimeType: string value expected.

Debugger.ts contains the following code:
let mimeType: string = <string>headers["Content-Type"] || <string>headers["content-type"];

So there will be no mimeType for requests with no "Content-Type". Locally I have temporarily fixed the problem by providing an empty string if no "Content-Type" is specified.

let mimeType: string = <string>headers["Content-Type"] || <string>headers["content-type"] || '';

The issue is only reproducible when using local node server (as in the posted example above).

NativeScript-Angular V3.0.3

I am using ASP.NET Core Web API services for my backend. The application crashs if one of my services returns a http status code that doesn't include content for example 404 - Not Found

I have the same issue, with the same environment as @R4ZuL

Hacky fix for now, I just modified line 15 of debugger.js in my node_modules to:

    var mimeType = headers["Content-Type"] || headers["content-type"] || "text/plain";
