Error message

No news found

What it means

Generic Error thrown when the category-specific list parser (parsers[category]) returned an empty array from the scraped Blizzard news page HTML. It is a content-availability guard: the request and parse succeeded but no items were extracted, almost always meaning the page structure changed or the page returned a block/interstitial.

Solutions

1. Open the category's news page in a browser and confirm the current DOM; update the selectors in parsers[category] if they changed.
2. Check whether Blizzard.cn is geo-blocking the server IP (try from a CN IP or add headers).
3. Retry later if the page was temporarily empty/under maintenance.

Example fix

// before
if (!list.length) {
    throw new Error('No news found');
}
// after (hint at the likely cause)
if (!list.length) {
    throw new Error(`No news found for ${category} — selectors may be stale or page is blocked`);
}

const list = getList(category, $);
if (!list.length) {
    throw new Error(`No news found for ${category} — selectors may be stale or page is blocked`);
}

const hasNewsItems = (list: unknown[]): boolean => Array.isArray(list) && list.length > 0;

// Degrade gracefully: if the primary parse is empty, try an alternate selector set
// or return allowEmpty instead of throwing, so feed consumers are not hard-failed.
let list = getList(category, $);
if (!list.length) list = getListFallback(category, $);

When it happens

Trigger: ofetch fetched https://{category}.blizzard.cn/news successfully, cheerio loaded it, but the selector for that category (e.g. '.list-data-container .list-item-container' for ow) matched zero nodes.

Common situations: Blizzard redesigned the news page DOM and the CSS selectors are stale; Blizzard.cn returning a maintenance/geo-block page; the category temporarily has no news items.
