Sina Finance rolling news API failed: ${payload?.result?.sta

Error message

Sina Finance rolling news API failed: ${payload?.result?.status?.msg || 'unknown status'}

What it means

CommandExecutionError thrown by normalizeRollRows when the Sina rolling news payload's result.status.code is not 0. The API's status message (result.status.msg) is interpolated into the error; 'unknown status' means the msg field was absent. This is the API-level business-logic failure signal, distinct from HTTP or JSON errors.

Solutions

1. Read the interpolated status msg to identify the API-reported reason
2. Retry after a delay — most status failures are transient upstream issues
3. Verify request parameters against the current Sina rolling news API
4. Back off and add rate limiting if you are polling in a loop

Example fix

// before
await cli.rollingNews(); // tight polling loop
// after
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 30000));
await cli.rollingNews();

function isOkStatus(payload) {
  return payload?.result?.status?.code === 0;
}

try {
  const rows = await cli.rollingNews();
} catch (err) {
  if (/rolling news API failed/.test(err.message)) {
    // API-reported status != 0; msg is embedded in err.message
    await sleep(30_000);
    return retryWithBackoff(() => cli.rollingNews(), 3);
  }
  throw err;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Any fetch of the rolling news endpoint where payload.result.status.code !== 0 — e.g. rate limiting, upstream Sina service degradation, malformed/unsupported query params, or an HTML error page parsed as JSON with a different shape.

Common situations: Sina throttling frequent polling; temporary outage of the rolling news backend; a deployed script calling the API with params Sina no longer accepts after an API revision.
