No such sub type.

Error message

No such sub type.

What it means

In handlePostList, for types xyxw/kxyj/tzgg, the sub parameter must be either 'all' or a key of categoryMap[type].sub (e.g. xyyw, hzjl, mtjj, xgyw for xyxw). Anything else reaches the else branch.

Solutions

1. Use 'all' or one of the sub keys listed in the route description table for the chosen type.
2. Double-check the sub belongs to the same type (subs are type-scoped in categoryMap).
3. Omit sub entirely — it defaults to 'all'.

Example fix

// before
/whu/rsgis/xyxw/xsbg   // xsbg belongs to kxyj, not xyxw
// after
/whu/rsgis/kxyj/xsbg

const category = categoryMap[type];
const validSubs = new Set(['all', ...Object.keys(category.sub)]);
if (!validSubs.has(sub)) {
    throw new InvalidParameterError(`sub must be one of: ${[...validSubs].join(', ')} — got ${sub}`);
}

function isValidSub(type: string, sub: string): boolean {
    return sub === 'all' || Object.hasOwn(categoryMap[type]?.sub ?? {}, sub);
}

try {
    itemList = await handlePostList(type, sub);
} catch (e) {
    if (e instanceof Error && e.message === 'No such sub type.') {
        throw new InvalidParameterError(`Unknown sub '${sub}' for type '${type}'`);
    }
    throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Requesting /whu/rsgis/xyxw/<invalid> where <invalid> is not 'all' and not present in categoryMap[xyxw].sub — e.g. /whu/rsgis/xyxw/foo or a sub key that belongs to a different type.

Common situations: Cross-type sub confusion (using a kxyj sub like xsbg under xyxw), typo, or stale docs.
