Unable to fetch JSON file

[jkohlin]

I'm running Docusaurus in a Docker container and I can't get this plugin to work. I get this error in the server console:

[ERROR] Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:443 at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1187:16)

I tried to add the proxy-settings to the requestConfig arg but still doesn't work.
If I start Docusaurus with this plugin out commented, and uncomment it after the server starts, I at least won't get the error above, but instead I get a 404.

requestConfig: {
  proxy: {
    protocol: 'http',
    host: '0.0.0.0',
    port: 3000,
},
    responseType: 'json',
    headers: {
      'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*'
    }
  }

You can try it out here:

Looks like an issue with your asset server.

Sorry, nope. This is my config:

[
  "docusaurus-plugin-remote-content",
  {
    name: "manifest", // used by CLI, must be path safe
    sourceBaseUrl: "http://ms_dev_assets/", // the base url for the markdown (gets prepended to all of the documents when fetching)
    outDir: "src/utils", // the base directory to output to.
    documents: ["manifest.json"], // the file names to download
    requestConfig: {
      transformResponse: (data) => JSON.stringify(data, null, 4),
      responseType: 'text',
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
      }
    },
  }
],

Honestly, it looks like this is just an issue with your setup, unless you can provide a full reproduction (including a working public asset server and a Docusaurus config), there isn't anything I can do.

Well, i did modify the sandbox so you can see it there.

https://codesandbox.io/s/brave-worker-n3608u?from-embed=&file=/docusaurus.config.js

The manifest.json file that your plugin creates is in the src folder.

Found an answer - remove the transformResponse, and switch the responseType to arraybuffer - actually confirmed that it does work this time.

Thank you so much!
That was it!
