Response status = 0 using fetch polyfill with mode: 'no-cors'

I'm using fetch polyfill with 'no-cors' mode and getting response status 0. In developer tools I can see that response has the requested data.

Client side code:

const BASE_CONFIG = {
    credentials: 'include',
    mode: 'no-cors'
};

let checkStatus = (response) => {
    if (response.status >= 200 && response.status < 300) {
        return response;
    } else {
        var error = new Error(response.statusText);
        error.response = response;
        throw error;
    }
};

function GET(url, urlParams={}, config={}) {
    let requestConfig = {
        method: 'get'
    };
  
    Object.assign(requestConfig, BASE_CONFIG, config);
    return fetch(url, requestConfig)
            .then(checkStatus)
            .then(parseJSON);
}

GET('http://other.domain,{})

Beckend nodejs (Express.js) simplified response handler:

function getData(req, res) {
    var responseData = {data: 'test'};
    res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
    res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
    res.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "application/json"});
    return res.end(JSON.stringify(responseData));
}

Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!


no-cors mode is only to CDN content, such as scripts, CSS and image, you cannot be used for getting data,response.status = 0 is right behavior


I don't know if you are using file: protocol, but in this case you can get a response status 0.

Neither Chrome's nor Firefox's native implementation supports fetching local files

For now, unfortunate as it is, file and ftp URLs are left as an exercise for the reader. When in doubt, return a network error.
