HTTP/2 support

[InterAl]

Is there any plan to add HTTP/2 support for node.js? Since it is now officially supported in node.js 9, I think it's highly desirable to have this library support it as well.

[IshamMohamed]

I would like to see this functionality.

Since Node 10 is LTS and it has Stable HTTP/2 support I would like to have this functionality in axios

[qraynaud]

Looking at the actual code in axios, seems like a headache. Wouldn't it be easier to just pass in another transport that would be a wrapper for the http API over the htt2 API? You could write such a code more easily I think!

Relevant code is here: https://github.com/axios/axios/blob/master/lib/adapters/http.js#L180

[qraynaud]

Should also be possible to write a simple adapter for this (look adapter in the documentation).

So what's up with this? Are we fucked if we wanna use HTTP/2 with Axios? It's been a year, has anyone found a solution to this?

Any Update?

Hello guys,
i faced an issue while using post for a file object.
"code snippet"
Axios
.post(url,fileobject)
.then()
.catch(error=>{
console.log(error)
})
"

[jasonsaayman]

yeah my mission over the next while will be to try make the contribution much easier

[oleksiukmarydev]

I custom the transport by http2-wrapper module for support HTTP/2.

const http2 = require("http2-wrapper");
const axios = require("axios");

const http2Transport = {
  request: function request(options, handleResponse) {
    const req = http2.request(options, handleResponse);
    setImmediate(() => {
      // Remove the axios action `socket.setKeepAlive` because the HTTP/2 sockets should not be directly manipulated
      const listeners = req.listeners("socket");
      if (listeners.length) req.removeListener("socket", listeners[0]);
    });
    return req;
  },
};

axios
  .get("https://httpbin.org/", {
    transport: http2Transport,
  })
  .then((res) => {
    console.log(res.data);
  });

adapter version

function http2AdapterEnhancer(adapter) {
  return async (config) => {
    if (config.http2) {
      let req;
      config.transport = {
        request: function request(options, handleResponse) {
          req = http2.request(options, handleResponse);
          return req;
        },
      };
      const ret = adapter(config);
      // Remove the axios action `socket.setKeepAlive` because the HTTP/2 sockets should not be directly manipulated
      const listeners = req.listeners("socket");
      if (listeners.length) req.removeListener("socket", listeners[0]);
      return ret;
    } else {
      return adapter(config);
    }
  };
}

const http2Adapter = http2AdapterEnhancer(axios.defaults.adapter);

axios
  .get("https://httpbin.org/", {
    http2: true,
    adapter: http2Adapter,
  })
  .then((res) => {
    console.log(res.data);
  });

How do i use the transport? Is it still a working solution @arronzhang because i can't find any documentation on that.
I've tried to create axios.js file as following but there are error that https and ./framer cant be found.

const  http2 = require('http2-wrapper');
const axios = require('axios');
const http2Transport = {
  request: function request(options, handleResponse) {
    const req = http2.request(options, handleResponse);
    setImmediate(() => {
      // Remove the axios action `socket.setKeepAlive` because the HTTP/2 sockets should not be directly manipulated
      const listeners = req.listeners('socket');
      if (listeners.length) req.removeListener('socket', listeners[0]);
    });
    return req;
  },
};
const instance = axios.create();
instance.defaults.transport = http2Transport;
export default instance;

Should i add http2 transport separately from axios config somewhere?

Still waiting http2

[DaniilIsupov]

I'm waiting for HTTP/2. But I don't want to do PR

[nestle49]

Maybe I can donate to someone who can add http2 support?

[swcm-mnestler]

Looks like the work on HTTP/2 in nodejs/undici#2061 is nearing an experimental release, a (native) fetch adapter (#1219, #5146) would get HTTP/2 support "for free". Very interested in this avenue

https://www.npmjs.com/package/haxios is something like this, it's using native fetch behind the scene, has http2 support therefore, but imitates the axios interface, so it can be used as a drop in replacement. (disclaimer, haxios was invented by myself some time ago, but we are not using axios in any way anymore)

[nestle49]

any news?

[nestle49]

any updates?

[DaniilIsupov]

i would like to see HTTP/2 support already

[nestle49]

axios doesn't support http2 yet! :mad: :mad: 😠 😠 😡

[einSelbst]

guys, so many alternatives, haxios was mentioned, here is even more https://github.com/sindresorhus/got#comparison

[nestle49]

guys, so many alternatives, haxios was mentioned

This package has been deprecated

R u serious?

[nestle49]

galaxy far, far away...

[DaniilIsupov]

is there any news?

[nestle49]

axios is dead

[alexandr-gerasimovich]

when will http2 support be available? it's no longer possible to live like this

[DaniilIsupov]

apparently axios is deprecated
i will migrate our entire ecosystem to got (there was support already in 2021)

[Tibing]

I've managed to build the http2 adapter available as an npm package, check it out here: https://github.com/uibakery/axios-http2-adapter

@jasonsaayman Perhaps you could help at least decompose the problem or create a roadmap?
