gol-got  

> Convenience wrapper for got with automatic consideration of proxy env variables.

Install

``
$ npm install gol-got
`

Usage

Instead of:

`js
// Exemple based on https://github.com/sindresorhus/got#proxies
const got = require('got');
const tunnel = require('tunnel');

/ Proxy env variables /
process.env.NO_PROXY = 'https://noproxy.com'
process.env.HTTPS_PROXY = 'https://proxy.mgdis.fr'

/ Indigestible code part to create the method for tunneling/
const method = ...; //httpOverHttp or httpsOverHttp or httpOverHttps or httpsOverHttps
let agent;
switch (method) {
case 'httpOverHttp':
agent = tunnel.httpOverHttp({
proxy: {
host: 'proxy.mgdis.fr'
});
break:
...
}
/ ------------------------------------------------------- /

const response = await got('https://www/mgdis.fr/resource/1', { agent });

`

You can do:

`js
const golGot = require('gol-got');

/ Proxy env variables/
process.env.NO_PROXY = 'https://noproxy.com'
process.env.HTTPS_PROXY = 'https://proxy.mgdis.fr'

// Prepare a Got instance
const got = golGot('https://www/mgdis.fr/resource/1');

// Use Got as usual
const response = await got('https://www/mgdis.fr/resource/1');
`

Why use gol-got

Same as got.

Clarification

- The tunnel agent used is tunnel-agent included in the popular request http calls library.
- proxy-from-env` is used to get the proxy URL for the given URL based on standard proxies environment variables.
