Will you be publishing latest code to npm? I just came on here to put in a PR to fix the error condition but I see it was already fixed. We keep running into this case where the app crashes because response.statusCode is undefined.

Thanks

To reproduce... google.co

Hello, I'm having trouble getting the metadata..
The problem happens when I try to get the data from this url:

This is the answer I get:

"title":"Estrela cadente? Nasa diz que asteroide gigante passar� pr�ximo � Terra logo ap�s o Natal","description":"N�o h� perigo de colis�o"

I am trying to solve this problem for hours, and I believe it is related to request or cheerio.

I tried some solutions that I found in stack overflow, one of them was using iconv-lite
I used it like this:

var body1 = iconv.decode(body, 'ISO-8859-1');
var $ = cheerio.load(body1);

I also addedencoding: null to the options object.

After doing this, I get the data the way I would like:

"title":"Estrela cadente? Nasa diz que asteroide gigante passará próximo à Terra logo após o Natal","description":"Não há perigo de colisão"

However if i try to get the data from this url i have problems again...

This is the answer I get:

"title":"Dez eletrônicos curiosos lançados pela Xiaomi em 2019","description":"Empresa chinesa se destacou pela variedade de dispositivos anunciados em 2019"

If I undo all the changes I made I get the expected answer:

"title":"Dez eletrônicos curiosos lançados pela Xiaomi em 2019","description":"Empresa chinesa se destacou pela variedade de dispositivos anunciados em 2019"

Could you help me fix this? I have no idea how to solve this problem, my knowledge of javascript is very limited, I'm a mobile developer and sometimes I need to do something with javascript in my backend.
I have been using this module for several months and only now have I noticed the problem.

if the website not responding get the following error "cannot read statusCode of undefined"

This error come from :
callback(new Error('Bad Request' + response.statusCode)); (line 55 in index.js)

since the response is undefined can't acces to statusCode
