Apologies, I know this has been asked, but I can't find a single example that works for me. Seems like it's not easy enough to understand if so many are struggling with it.

I just need to know how to catch errors in React in a clean, simple way. I'm using CRA 2.0/React 16.7. I want a try/catch block at the action level, as this is where business logic is concentrated in my app.

I read this and implemented it as described, but my ErrorBoundary object never catches errors.

Example:

import React, { Component } from "react";

class ErrorBoundary extends Component {
    constructor(props) {
        super(props);
        this.state = { hasError: false };
    }

    static getDerivedStateFromError(error) {
        return { hasError: true };
    }

    ponentDidCatch(error, info) {
        console.log("ErrorBoundary: ", error);
        console.log("ErrorBoundary: ", info);
    }

    render() {
        if (this.state.hasError) {
            return <h1>Something went wrong.</h1>;
        }
        return this.props.children;
    }
}

export default ErrorBoundary;

I'm wrapping my routes at the top level:

    return (
        <BrowserRouter>
            <ErrorBoundary>
                <div className="main-container">
                    <SideBar />
                    <div className="some-class">
                        <Switch>
                            <Route path="/events" ponent={Events} />
                            <Route exact path="/" ponent={Index} />
                        </Switch>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </ErrorBoundary>
        </BrowserRouter>
    );

In "events" above, I make an API call which is throwing a 500 error on the API side:

ponentDidMount() {
    this.props.getAllEvents();
}

Here's the Redux action:

export const getAllEvents = () => {
    return async (dispatch, getState) => {
        try {
            let state = getState();
            const result = await get({
                state: state,
                route: "/v1/events"
            });
            dispatch({
                type: GET_EVENTS,
                payload: result
            });
        } catch (e) {
            console.log("Something went wrong at action...");
        }
    };
};

..."get()" is just wrapping an Axios GET - nothing fancy.

I see a 500 error in the console from the failed API call. I never see the "Something went wrong..." in the console, from the catch block above, though that line does get hit while debugging.

The "ponentDidCatch()" method never gets called - "hasError" is always false and it always renders the children.

If I remove the throw block in the API endpoint, everything works fine and I get my data. I'm just not able to catch errors at the UI level. I've tried a try/catch in the "ponentDidMount()", I've tried removing the try/catch block in the action...behavior doesn't change.

Thanks in advance.

As the other answer correctly stated, React error boundary will only catch rendering errors.

Since you are using redux, you could build your own mechanism for cases like yours:

1. Whenever an error occurs, you dispatch an action with an error property.
2. A reducer only looks for actions that has error property. It receives the action and update a "global error" state in your state tree
3. An app-wide connected wrapper ponent sees this change in state and displays fallback UI.

For example:
Dispatch an action with error property:

export const getAllEvents = () => {
    return async (dispatch, getState) => {
        try {
            ...
        } catch (e) {
            dispatch({
                type: ERROR, 
                error: e // dispatch an action that has `error` property
            });
        }
    };
};

A reducer sees it and update the state.error part:

export default function errorReducer(state = null, action) {
  const { type, error } = action;
  if (type === RESET_ERROR_MESSAGE) {  // an action to clear the error
    return null;
  } else if (error) { // any type of action, but contains an `error`
    return error;
  }
  return state;
}

Now you wrap your app in a connected boundary:

function Wrapper({error}) {
  if(error) return <h1>Something went wrong</h1>;
  return <App/>;
}

export default connect(
  state => ({
    error: state.error,
  })
)(Wrapper);

From the React Error Boundaries docs:

Error boundaries do not catch errors for:

• Event handlers (learn more)
• Asynchronous code (e.g. setTimeout or requestAnimationFrame callbacks)
• Server side rendering
• Errors thrown in the error boundary itself (rather than its children)
