igottp

A simple http client that adds spice to the native fetch.

igottp have some advantages:

• Can be used on web pages or node
• Provide a flexible and extendable interface
• Have its own code generator
• Preserve the full capabilities of the fetch API

Quick start

Installation

Using npm:

$ npm install igottp --save

igottp requires the global fetch function, witch is provided by the modern browsers or by node 16. If you are working with an older version of node or a browser that doesn't support fetch API you should install a polyfill of your preference. There are some good polyfills available, choose one that best fit to your needs.

Usage

The first step to use igottp http client is to build a client. In this process you can configure common parameters that will be used for all requests. It can be done by calling the function builder(). See the example bellow:

    import {builder} from 'igottp';
    let http = builder()
        .withBaseUrl('http://example.com/services')
        .type('json')
        .build();

After building the client, you can make requests. For example, you can make a GET request easily:

    http.get('/api/getsomething').then(data => console.log(data));

Or a POST request like this:

    http.postForEntity('/api/customers', {name:'John von Neumann'});
