Resreq

    

What is resreq?

It is a modern http client, based on fetch, because it is implemented internally using the onion model, so you can use middleware to intercept requests and responses elegantly.

Install

Resreq targets modern browsers and Deno

``shell
pnpm install resreq
`

or

`typescript
import Resreq from 'https://esm.sh/resreq'
`

If you are using a lower version of node, you may need to add some polyfill.

`typescript
import fetch, { Headers, Request, Response } from 'node-fetch'
import AbortController from 'abort-controller'

globalThis.fetch = fetch
globalThis.Headers = Headers
globalThis.Request = Request
globalThis.Response = Response
globalThis.AbortController = AbortController
`

`typescript
import Resreq from 'resreq'

const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com',
responseType: 'json'
})

const res = await resreq.request({
url: '/api/user',
method: 'GET',
params: { foo: 'bar' }
})
console.log(res) // Object

const res = await resreq.get('/api/download', {
responseType: 'blob'
})
console.log(res) // Blob
`

Cancel request

`typescript
const resreq = new Resreq()

const abortController = new AbortController()

resreq.get('https://example.com/api', {
signal: abortController.signal
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(error) // Abort error
})

abortController.abort() // request cancel
`

Use Middlewares

`typescript
const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com'
})

// Intercepting responses and requests using middleware
resreq.use((next) => async (req) => {
try {
console.log(req) // Request can be changed here
const res = await next(req)
console.log(res) // Response can be changed here
return res
} catch (error) {
console.log(error) // Catch errors here
throw error
}
})

const res = await resreq.get('/api', {
params: { foo: 'bar' }
})

console.log(res)
`

new Resreq(options?:Options)

Create a resreq instance and configure the global options.

`typescript
const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com',
timeout: 10000,
responseType: 'json',
throwHttpError: true,
onDownloadProgress(progress, chunk) {
console.log(progress, chunk)
}
})
`

resreq.request(options?:Options)

Use ''request'' to send the request and configure the options.

`typescript
const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com'
})

const res = await resreq.request({
url: '/api',
method: 'GET',
params: { foo: 'bar' },
throwHttpError: true,
onDownloadProgress(progress, chunk) {
console.log(progress, chunk)
}
})

console.log(res)
`

resreq\method\

Use ''method'' to send the request and configure the options

`typescript
const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com'
})

const res = await resreq.get('/api', {
params: { foo: 'bar' },
throwHttpError: true,
onDownloadProgress(progress, chunk) {
console.log(progress, chunk)
}
})

console.log(res)
`

resreq.use(middleware:Middleware)

Add headers using middleware.

`typescript
import Resreq, { Middleware } from 'resreq'

const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com'
})

// Implement a middleware that set token
const setAccessToken: Middleware = (next) => (req) => {
req.headers.set('Access-Token', 'foo-bar')
return next(req)
}

// Register middleware
resreq.use(setAccessToken)

await resreq.get('/api')
`

Rewriting headers using middleware.

`typescript
import Resreq, { Req } from 'resreq'

const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com'
})

resreq.use((next) => async (req) => {

// Create a new request with Req
const _req = new Req(req, {
headers: {
'X-Custom-Header': 'bar'
}
})

console.log(_req.headers.get('Content-Type')) // null
console.log(_req.headers.get('X-Custom-Header')) // bar

return await next(_req)
})

await resreq.get('/api', {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'X-Custom-Header': 'foo'
}
})
`

Req(request: Req, init: ReqInit | Request)

Res(response: Res, init: ResInit | Response)

In the middleware, use new Req() and new Res() to rewrite the request and response.

`typescript
import Resreq, { Req, Res } from 'resreq'

const resreq = new Resreq({
baseURL: 'https://example.com',
})

resreq.use((next) => async (req) => {

const _req = new Req(req, {
url: 'https://example.com/mock'
})

const res = await next(_req)
return new Res(res, {
body: { foo: 'bar' }
status: 200,
})
})

const res: Response = await resreq.get('/api')

console.log(res.status) // 200
console.log(await res.json()) // { foo: 'bar' }
`

> Warning
> Req & Res extends from Request and Response; to create a new request and response in the middleware, use new Req() and new Res().
>
> To access the contents of the body in the current middleware, please use Res.clone() to ensure that the res received by the next middleware are unlocked.

Options

Options extends from the RequestInit type with some additional properties

`typescript
interface Options extends Omit {
baseURL?: string
url?: string
method?: 'GET' | 'POST' | 'PUT' | 'DELETE' | 'HEAD' | 'PATCH'
params?: Record
body?: BodyInit | Record
meta?: Record
timeout?: number
responseType?: 'json' | 'arrayBuffer' | 'blob' | 'formData' | 'text' | null | false
throwHttpError?: boolean
onDownloadProgress?: ProgressCallback
}
`

- baseURL: The url prefix of the request will be concatenated with the url in resreq[method]() to form a complete request address, the default value is ' '.
- url: Request url, the default value is ' '.
- method：Request method, the default value is 'GET'.
- params: The params of a resreq.get request are automatically added to the url via the new URLSearchParams method.
- body: Based on BodyInit, and adding Record, which means you can pass object directly, instead of JSON.stringify(object), which will automatically add Content-Type: application/json request headers.
- meta: The extra information that needs to be carried in the request is not really sent to the server, but it can be obtained in Res.meta and Req.meta.
- timeout: Specify the number of milliseconds of time before the request, if the time is exceeded the request will be aborted, the default value is 1000ms.
- responseType: Set how the response will be parsed, if not set or set to false, the Response instance will be returned, the default value is undefined.
- throwHttpError: If true, a status code outside of 200-299 will throw an error, the default value is false.
- onDownloadProgress: The download progress hook, which depends on the ReadableStream API, polyfill is required in lower versions of node.

To avoid adding complexity, new Resreq(options) and resreqmethod, in which 'options' are of the same type.

The options defined in new Resreq(options) will take effect globally, resreqmethod, will override the "global options", except for the following options which will not be overridden.

- meta: The meta within the method will be shallow merged with the global meta.

- headers: The headers defined in the method are merged into the global headers.

- onDownloadProgress: Defining onDownloadProgress in a method and the global onDownloadProgress are both retained.

ReqInit

Options extends from the RequestInit type with some additional properties.

`typescript
interface ReqInit extends Omit {
url?: string
method?: 'GET' | 'POST' | 'PUT' | 'DELETE' | 'HEAD' | 'PATCH'
meta?: Record
timeout?: number
responseType?: ResponseType
throwHttpError?: boolean
body?: BodyInit | Record
onDownloadProgress?: ProgressCallback
}
`

> Note
> That its 'headers' behave differently than 'Options.headers', which overrides the global headers.

ResInit

ResInit extends from the ResponseInit type with some additional properties.

`typescript
interface ResInit extends ResponseInit {
meta?: Record
body?: BodyInit | Record | null
timeout?: number
responseType?: ResponseType
throwHttpError?: boolean
onDownloadProgress?: ProgressCallback
}
`

Middleware

The middleware must call next(req) to return a promise.

`typescript
type Middleware = (next: Next) => (req: Req) => Promise
``
