chrome-extension send message to tab which has NOT been injected and ignore error "caught (in promise) Error: "

The scenario is I have is

  1. On 'options page' user can add / delete urls to block. When user clicks save button, the updated list of urls is saved on storage
  2. On 'popup page' user clicks start button and all the urls in storage are blocked (by overriding innerHtml). On stop all the injected tabs are sent stop message (restore the original html)

Additionally on 'options page' when user clicks on delete a url and save, it will send stop message to all the tabs irrespective they are injected or not. the reason for this is that I do not know which url existed before and which have been removed

when i send message to all the tabs using code

try {
        let tabs = await chrome.tabs.query({}) // all the tabs
        tabs.forEach((tab) => {
                const resp = chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tab.id, {type : 'StopTimer'})
        })
    } catch (err) {
        console.log('No matching tab', err)
    }

I get the following error for tabs which are not injected

caught (in promise) Error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist.

I want to simply catch (ignore) error. to prevent showing it as error on extensions page. Right now this catch block is not catching the error.

Is there a way to do it? Else I have to figure out in 'background.js' all the tabs which have been injected and then send the message to those

The number of nodes and edges I calculated manually and by a method provided by networkx library dont match

I am trying to analyse a graph using networkx library in Python. I have implemented a function that returns the nodes and edges of that graph. After that I counted the number of nodes and edges by implementing the len() function for nodes and edges, which gave me 17 for both nodes and edges. However, when I used the method graph.number_of_nodes() of networkx library it gave me 53. My code: import pandas as pd import networkx as nx import matplotlib.pyplot as plt header_list = ["a","b","w"] E =pd.read_csv("aves-barn-swallow-contact-network.edges",sep=" ",header= None,names=header_list) # print(E.head()) # prints first few rows of the csv file G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(E,"a","b",["w"]) nx.draw(G) plt.show() class GraphAnalyse: #finding nodes and edges def nodeEdge(self,Graph): nodes = Graph.nodes() edges = Graph.edges() ...
