Issue

Users are experiencing SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input errors when using the fetchStreamedChatContent function. This happens because the function attempts to parse potentially invalid JSON without any error handling.

Changes

This PR adds robust error handling to prevent crashes when the API returns incomplete or malformed JSON:

  1. Added a try-catch block around the JSON parsing operation
  2. Added validation to check if the expected structure (choices[0].delta.content) exists before accessing it
  3. Added error logging for debugging without interrupting the stream
  4. Updated tests to skip API-dependent tests when no API key is provided
  5. Added a unit test to verify the error handling works correctly

Before

// Before - crashes on invalid JSON
(responseChunk) => {
    const content = JSON.parse(responseChunk).choices[0].delta.content;
    if (content && onResponse) {
        onResponse(content);
    }
}

After

// After - gracefully handles invalid JSON
(responseChunk) => {
    try {
        const parsedResponse = JSON.parse(responseChunk);
        // Check if the expected structure exists
        if (parsedResponse.choices && 
            parsedResponse.choices[0] && 
            parsedResponse.choices[0].delta && 
            parsedResponse.choices[0].delta.content) {
            
            const content = parsedResponse.choices[0].delta.content;
            if (onResponse) {
                onResponse(content);
            }
        }
    } catch (parseError) {
        // Silently handle JSON parse errors to prevent stream interruption
        console.error('Error parsing response chunk:', parseError);
    }
}

This change ensures the library continues processing the stream even when encountering invalid JSON fragments, making it more resilient in real-world usage scenarios.

Fixes #9.
