JSON中位置1处的意外令牌u

Question

I know this is common question, but I keep getting this error when fetching data:

SyntaxError: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 1 at JSON.parse ()

This happened when I testing my full code, so I made tested with

res.send(JSON.stringify({"data": "test"}));

In my client side, I'm using this code:

fetch(url)                                   // fetch works
    .then(checkStatus)                       // checks for errors, if none send response text
    .then(function (responseText) {
        let data = JSON.parse(responseText); // where I'm getting the error

When testing the values, everything in my server side prints the correct values. However, when I use console.log to print out the responseText on the client side, I get this:

f text() { [native code] }

Why is this error being called? From looking around stack overflow, I understand that this error happens when I attempt to parse a string that's undefined. I put an if statement before the parse to check is the string is undefined:

if (responseText === undefined) {
    console.log("responseText is undefined");
}

But it didn't output, so is the string really undefined? As a side note, node is up to date. Thank you for helping.If this is answered in another question, please let me know. I haven't found a solution to this problem.

Edit:

function checkStatus(response) {
    if (response.status >= 200 && response.status < 300) {
        return response.text;
    } else if (response.status === 404) {
        clear();
        return Promise.reject(new Error("Sorry, we couldn't find that page"));
    } else {
        console.log(response.text());
        return Promise.reject(new Error(response.status + ": " + response.statusText));
    }
}

Edit: response.text is supposed to be response.text(). This gave me my error.

Updated to match new question code

A promise chain resolves each new promise with the return value from the last.

You should note the fetch() API returns a Promise resolving with a Response object. This does not have a text property , so checkStatus is resolving with undefined (hence the "u" in the error message).

I suggest you use the Body.json() method to parse the JSON response, ie change checkStatus to use

if (res.ok) { // same as checking status between [200, 300)
  return res.json()
}
if (res.status === 404) {
  clear()
  return Promise.reject(new Error("Sorry, we couldn't find that page"))
}
// text(), like json() returns a promise
return res.text().then(responseText => {
  console.error(responseText)
  return Promise.reject(new Error(`${res.status}: ${res.statusText}`))
})

and for fetch() ...

fetch(url)
  .then(checkStatus)
  .then(data => {
    // data is already parsed into an object
  })

On the server-side, you might want to use res.json() instead of manually stringifying your data

res.json({ data: 'test' })
