Using `instanceof` to detect a `pageError`
I want to detect when a page doesnt exist so Im catching exceptions, and trying to work out if the exception is a pageError.
So Im trying to use :
if (wikiError instanceof pageError) {
It works if I import the class using :
import { pageError } from "wikipedia/dist/errors";
..but if I use the barrelled main export types from the d.ts
like so
import { pageError } from "wikipedia";
It fails with
Right-hand side of 'instanceof' is not an object
Obviously I don't want to rely on digging into the dist
folder, any ideas?
