@aws-sdk/xhr-http-handler
This HttpHandler
is based on XMLHttpRequest
and can be substituted if
requiring a specific use case not covered by fetch
.
Warning :warning:
The recommended HttpHandler
for browser-like environments is @smithy/fetch-http-handler
,
which is the default.
This alternative has only been tested against S3
in browsers.
Polyfills
The following global-scope implementations are accessed by this package:
XMLHttpRequest
TextEncoder
TransformStream
Blob
You will have to supply polyfills, for example for TextEncoder
and TransformStream
, for environments
that do not implement them natively.
Use case: XMLHttpRequest upload progress events
Use the Upload
class from the @aws-sdk/lib-storage
package as normal, except supplying a different
HttpHandler
when creating the S3Client
or S3
object(s).
See also: lib-storage/README.md.
import { XhrHttpHandler } from "@aws-sdk/xhr-http-handler";
import { S3Client } from "@aws-sdk/client-s3";
import { Upload } from "@aws-sdk/lib-storage";
const client = new S3Client({
requestHandler: new XhrHttpHandler({}), // overrides default FetchHttpHandler in browsers.
});
const upload = new Upload({
client,
params: {
/* ... */
},
});
upload.on("httpUploadProgress", (progress) => {
// Note, this event will be emitted much more frequently when using the XhrHttpHandler.
// Your application should be ready to throttle the event listener if it is
// computationally expensive.
// The default FetchHttpHandler only emits this event upon the completion of each
// part, a minimum of 5 MB. Using XHR will emit this event continuously, including
// for files smaller than the chunk size, which use single-part upload.
console.log(progress);
console.log(
progress.loaded, // Bytes uploaded so far.
progress.total // Total bytes. Divide these two for progress percentage.
);
});
const completeMultiPartUpload = await upload.done();
Use case: XMLHttpRequest download progress and other events
XhrHttpHandler
extends EventEmitter
.
Download progress
import { XhrHttpHandler } from "@aws-sdk/xhr-http-handler";
import { S3Client, GetObjectCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-s3";
const handler = new XhrHttpHandler({});
handler.on(XhrHttpHandler.EVENTS.PROGRESS, (progress, request) => {
if (progress.lengthComputable) {
console.log(
progress.loaded, // bytes
progress.total // bytes
);
console.log(
request // contains the request information to differentiate
// requests from the same handler.
);
}
});
const client = new S3Client({
requestHandler: handler,
});
await client.send(new GetObjectCommand(/*...*/));
Accessing the XMLHttpRequest
object.
You can access the XMLHttpRequest
object to inspect it or to
attach addiional event listeners.
import { XhrHttpHandler } from "@aws-sdk/xhr-http-handler";
import { S3Client, GetObjectCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-s3";
const handler = new XhrHttpHandler({});
handler.on(XhrHttpHandler.EVENTS.XHR_INSTANTIATED, (xhr) => {
// a new XMLHttpRequest is created for each command sent.
// this is immediately after instantiation.
});
handler.on(XhrHttpHandler.EVENTS.BEFORE_XHR_SEND, (xhr) => {
// a new XMLHttpRequest is created for each command sent.
// this is immediately before calling `xhr.send(body)`.
});
const client = new S3Client({
requestHandler: handler,
});
await client.send(new GetObjectCommand(/*...*/));
You can check the source .ts
file or published .d.ts
file
for the full list of events, or inspect the XhrHttpHandler.EVENTS
object at runtime.
