Install

npm install avirx

Example

import { avirx } from 'avirx';

const Book = {
    parse(input: unknown): { id: string; title: string } {
        return input as { id: string; title: string };
    },
};

const api = avirx('https://api.example.com');

const request = api
    .get('/books/{id}')
    .path({ id: 'book_123' })
    .query({ include: ['author', 'reviews'] });

console.log(await request.preview());
console.log(await request.curl());

const book = await request.as(Book);

Model

Avirx treats requests as values. Build a request once, then inspect, clone, or execute it without hidden mutation.

const result = await api
    .get('/books/{id}')
    .path({ id: 'missing' })
    .result(Book);

if (!result.ok) {
    console.log(result.status);
}
