Sina Finance rolling news request failed: ${error instanceof

Error message

Sina Finance rolling news request failed: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}

What it means

CommandExecutionError wrapping a network-level failure of the fetch() call for the rolling news endpoint. The original error message (DNS failure, connection refused, timeout, TLS error) is interpolated. This fires before any HTTP status check, meaning the request never got a response.

Solutions

1. Check basic internet connectivity (ping/curl another site)
2. Verify DNS resolves the Sina API host (nslookup)
3. Check firewall/proxy rules allow the Sina finance domain
4. Retry with exponential backoff — transient network failures are common

Example fix

// before
try { await cli.rollingNews(); } catch (e) { throw e; }
// after
try {
    return await cli.rollingNews();
} catch (e) {
    if (String(e.message).includes('request failed')) return retryWithBackoff(cli.rollingNews);
    throw e;
}

// pre-flight connectivity check
const online = await fetch('https://finance.sina.com.cn', { method: 'HEAD' }).then(r => r.ok).catch(() => false);
if (!online) throw new Error('No connectivity to sina.com.cn');

try {
  const rows = await cli.rollingNews();
} catch (err) {
  if (/request failed/.test(err.message)) {
    // network-level failure (DNS/connect/timeout)
    return retryWithBackoff(() => cli.rollingNews(), { retries: 3, baseMs: 1000 });
  }
  throw err;
}

When it happens

Trigger: fetch throws: DNS resolution failure for the Sina host, no network connectivity, connection refused/reset, TLS handshake failure, or request timeout — anything causing fetch to reject.

Common situations: Running the CLI offline or behind a restrictive firewall; DNS misconfiguration; corporate proxies blocking finance.sina.com.cn; intermittent network drops in scheduled jobs.
