NOT_FOUND

Error message

No news found

What it means

CliError with code NOT_FOUND thrown when the Sina Finance news API responds successfully but its feed list is empty. The library treats an empty list as 'no results for this query', not a network failure. It signals the caller should adjust the query parameters rather than retry.

Solutions

1. Check the query keyword/type for typos and retry with a more common term
2. Increase the limit parameter so more feed entries are eligible
3. Switch to a different news type supported by the CLI
4. Verify the API response shape directly (curl the endpoint) to confirm the list is genuinely empty vs a schema change

Example fix

// before
cli.news({ key: 'xxxxx', limit: 1 });
// after
cli.news({ key: '贵州茅台', limit: 20 });

// validate inputs before calling
if (!key || typeof key !== 'string') throw new Error('key required');
if (limit != null && (!Number.isInteger(limit) || limit < 1)) throw new Error('limit must be a positive integer');

function hasNewsList(payload) {
  return Array.isArray(payload?.result?.data?.feed?.list) && payload.result.data.feed.list.length > 0;
}

try {
  const news = await cli.news({ key, limit });
} catch (err) {
  if (err.code === 'NOT_FOUND') {
    // empty result: adjust query, not a network problem
    console.warn('No news for this query; try another type or larger limit');
  } else throw err;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling the news command when json.result.data.feed.list is empty (the ?? [] fallback kicks in and list.length === 0). Happens with an obscure/typo'd query keyword, a very small or zero limit, a news type with no recent posts, or an API schema change that moved the feed data.

Common situations: Querying a delisted or low-activity stock's news feed; requesting news for a keyword with no Weibo/finance feed entries; Sina silently changing result nesting so the list lookup falls back to []; hitting the API during periods with no feed updates.

Understand the failure class

Background: EmptyResultError / "no results found": when an API or scraper succeeds but returns zero rows — this error's family across 9 libraries.
