Thrown “SCRIPT1028: SCRIPT1028: Expected identifier, string or number” in Edge browser.

Hi @southpolesteve

Thanks for your help! Could you please look into the below issue?

When using an Angular app which use the @azure/cosmos and run it at Edge browser, it will hit the below error message.
“SCRIPT1028: SCRIPT1028: Expected identifier, string or number”
Clicking the error, I found the error throwed by the line 39.
After search it, found this github link: https://github.com/sindresorhus/crypto-hash/blob/master/browser.js#L39
This code is part of the ‘crypto-hash.’

It seems that the ‘crypto-hash’ is required if use the @azure/cosmos.

I search again and found below link which indicating that Edge doesn’t support the Rest parameters (the syntax is ‘…options’)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53628191/edge-script1028-expected-identifier-string-or-number

Then, the issue seems to be the dead-lock status.
The Angular app use the @azure/cosmos. @azure/cosmos required the ‘crypto-hash’. ‘crypto-hash’ use the Rest parameters. However, the Edge doesn’t support such syntax..
Therefore, the above restriction let the Angular app cannot be used in the Edge browser.

This is a sample which you can simply repro the issue:

I fully know this might be a pure front-end issue or Edge issue. I still hope to consult from your side and see if there is any idea for resolving the issue.

hi @southpolesteve
May I know is there the current ETA for replacing the cypto-hash?

[southpolesteve]

No ETA at this time. We are evaluating making our own crypto shim in #5023
