Error message

dianping.com

What it means

detectAuthOrPageFailure inspects the rendered page text and final URL of a dianping request. When the signal matches captcha indicators (verify.meituan.com, verifyimg, 身份核实, 请依次点击, 美团安全验证, Yoda) it throws AuthRequiredError('dianping.com', ...) telling you the request was blocked by Meituan's Yoda icon-tap captcha. Dianping short-circuits HTML to this captcha when its bot checks trip, so no real data was rendered.

Solutions

1. Open the reported URL (or www.dianping.com) manually in the same browser profile and solve the captcha, then retry the command.
2. Slow down: add delays between requests and reduce request volume per profile.
3. Refresh/replace the dianping login cookies with a freshly authenticated session.
4. Run non-headless (or with a more realistic fingerprint) and avoid datacenter IPs; if it recurs, wait before retrying to let the rate-limit cool down.

// quick session probe before scraping
const res = await page.goto('https://www.dianping.com');
const signal = `${page.url()} ${await page.content()}`;
if (/verify\.meituan\.com|verifyimg|身份核实|请依次点击|美团安全验证|Yoda/i.test(signal)) {
  throw new Error('captcha pending — solve it in the browser profile first');
}

function isAuthRequiredError(err) {
  return err instanceof Error && err.code === 'AUTH_REQUIRED' && /captcha/i.test(err.message || '');
}

try {
  await dianpingSearch(args);
} catch (err) {
  if (err.code === 'AUTH_REQUIRED' && /captcha/i.test(err.message)) {
    console.error('Solve the captcha in the browser profile, then rerun.');
    process.exitCode = 2;
  } else throw err;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Any dianping step that calls detectAuthOrPageFailure while the page URL/text contains a meituan verification redirect — typically after several automated requests from one cookie profile, an aged/flagged cookie, or a headless fingerprint that trips anti-bot checks.

Common situations: Scraping many search pages back-to-back from the same profile, running headless with default browser flags, reusing a cookie jar that dianping has flagged, or a datacenter IP making the session suspicious.
