Description

This package provides simple functional for performing http requests. Responses can be retrieved as JSON or loaded into a Document (via JSDom).

Currently, two different fetchers are implemented (libs are peer dependencies):

• NodeFetchFetcher uses node-fetch as library.
• RequestFetcher uses default request as library.
• AxiosFetcher uses default axios as library.

Use

const fetcher = new RequestFetcher();
const response = await fetcher.fetch("http://google.com");
const body = response.body; // contains the raw response body

Post example:

const fetcher = new RequestFetcher();
const options: FetchOptions = {
    data: {
        foo: `bar`,
    },
    method: Method.POST,
};
const response = await fetcher.fetch("https://httpbin.org/post", options);
const json = response.asJSON<HttpbinResponse>(); // contains the data returned as json object
