Check if a value is a Fetch network error

This can be useful when you want to do something specific when a network error happens without catching other Fetch-related errors.

Unfortunately, Fetch network errors are not standardized and differ among implementations. This package handles the differences.

For instance, p-retry uses this package to retry on network errors.

npm install is-network-error

import isNetworkError from 'is-network-error';
async function getUnicorns() {
	try {
		const response = await fetch('unicorns.json');
		return await response.json();
	} catch (error) {
		if (isNetworkError(error)) {
			return localStorage.getItem('…');
		}
		throw error;
	}
}
console.log(await getUnicorns());

Returns true if the given value is a Fetch network error, otherwise false.
