Promise based simple HTTP/HTTPS client for browser to request JSON or string for RESTful apis, with koa-like middleware support.

Documents and examples.

Installation

NPM

npm install req-json --save
import ReqJSON from 'req-json';

Browser

Direct <script> include

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/req-json@2"></script>

Wechat mini program (weapp)

const ReqJSON = require('req-json/dist/req-json.wx');

or just download and copy to your project.

Basic Usage

import ReqJSON from 'req-json';

const reqJSON = new ReqJSON();

reqJSON.get('/api/item/:id', { id: 1 })
  .then((item) => {});

Shorthand methods

async getItem(id) {
  let item;
  try {
    item = await reqJSON.get('/api/item/:id', { id });
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
  return item;
}

async updateItem(item) {
  try {
    await reqJSON.post('/api/item/:id', item);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
}

RESTful API

const resource = reqJSON.resource('/api/item/:id');

async getItem(id) {
  let item;
  try {
    item = await resource.get({ id });
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
  return item;
}

async updateItem(item) {
  try {
    await resource.post(item);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
}

Methods

Supports GET POST PUT DELETE methods.

const resource = reqJSON.resource('/api/item/:id');

async request() {
  try {
    const response = await resource.get({ id: 1 });
    await resource.post({
      id: 1,
      others: { foo: 'bar' }
    });
    await resource.put({
      id: 1,
      others: { foo: 'bar' }
    });
    await resource.delete({ id: 1 });
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
}

Options

You can set option for ReqJSON instance / resource defination / each single request.

  • headers: Customized request headers
  • timeout: Set request timeout

Set option for ReqJSON instance

const options = {
  headers: {
    Authorization: 'abc'
  },
  timeout: 1000
};
const reqJSON = new ReqJSON(options);

Set option for resource defination.

const options = {
  headers: {
    Authorization: 'abc'
  },
  timeout: 1000
};
const resource = reqJSON.resource('/api/item/:id', options);

async request() {
  try {
    await resource.get({ id: 1 });
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
}

Set option for single request.

async request() {
  const options = {
    headers: {
      Authorization: 'abc'
    },
    timeout: 1000
  };
  try {
    await resource.get({ id: 1 }, options);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
}

Middlewares

Supports two diffrent kinds of functions as middleware:

  • async function
  • common function

Async function (Can I use)

reqJSON.use(async(context, next) => {
  const start = Date.now();
  await next();
  const ms = Date.now() - start;
  console.log(`${context.method} ${context.url} ${ms}ms`);
});

Common function

reqJSON.use((context, next) => {
  const start = Date.now();
  return next()
    .then(() => {
      const ms = Date.now() - start;
      console.log(`${context.method} ${context.url} ${ms}ms`);
    });
});

Context

Context contains these attributes:

/**
 * The path to use for the request, with parameters defined.
 */
path: string

/**
 * The HTTP method to use for the request (e.g. "POST", "GET", "PUT", "DELETE").
 */
method: 'POST' | 'GET' | 'PUT' | 'DELETE'

/**
 * The URL to which the request is sent.
 */
url: string

/**
 * The data to be sent.
 */
data: any

/**
 * The options to use for the request.
 */
options: object

/**
 * The HTTP status of the response. Only available when the request completes.
 */
status?: number

/**
 * The parsed response. Only available when the request completes.
 */
response?: any

/**
 * The request headers before the request is sent, the response headers when the request completes.
 */
headers: Headers

/**
 * Alias to `headers`
 */
header: Headers

/**
 * The original XMLHttpRequest object.
 */
xhr: XMLHttpRequest

Reject when status 4xx or 5xx

Async function

reqJSON.use(async(context, next) => {
  await next();
  if (context.status >= 400) {
    throw new Error(context.response);
  }
});

Common function

reqJSON.use((context, next) => {
  return next()
    .then(() => {
      if (context.status >= 400) {
throw new Error(context.response);
      }
    });
});

Set request headers and get response headers

Async function

reqJSON.use(async(context, next) => {
  // set request headers
  context.headers = {
    'If-None-Match': 'abcdefg'
  };
  await next();
  // get response headers
  console.log(context.headers.etag);
});

Common function

reqJSON.use((context, next) => {
  // set request headers
  context.headers = {
    'If-None-Match': 'abcdefg'
  };
  return next()
    .then(() => {
      // get response headers
      console.log(context.headers.etag);
    });
});
