An authentication interceptor is used to add authentication tokens to outgoing requests and handle authentication-related errors. This is essential for securing your application’s API requests.

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import {
  HttpInterceptor,
  HttpRequest,
  HttpHandler,
} from '@angular/common/http';

@Injectable()
export class AuthInterceptor implements HttpInterceptor {
  intercept(request: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler) {
    const authToken = 'your-auth-token';
    const authRequest = request.clone({
      headers: request.headers.set('Authorization', `Bearer ${authToken}`),
    });
    return next.handle(authRequest);
  }
}

An error handling interceptor can be used to centralize error handling for HTTP requests. It can capture HTTP errors, log them, and perform appropriate actions like displaying error messages.

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import {
  HttpInterceptor,
  HttpRequest,
  HttpHandler,
  HttpErrorResponse,
} from '@angular/common/http';
import { catchError } from 'rxjs/operators';
import { throwError } from 'rxjs';

@Injectable()
export class ErrorInterceptor implements HttpInterceptor {
  intercept(request: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler) {
    return next.handle(request).pipe(
      catchError((error: HttpErrorResponse) => {
        // Handle and log the error here
        console.error('HTTP Error:', error);
        // Optionally rethrow the error to propagate it
        return throwError(error);
      })
    );
  }
}
