REQUEST-PARAMETERS

Help to configure the request parameters and to send HTTP request with the configured parameters.

Pre requirements

• NodeJs 6 or bigger

Install

npm install --save @luigisamurai/request-parameters

Use

const RequestParameters = require('@luigisamurai/request-parameters');

const request = new RequestParameters.Request();

// request-promises options
const setting = {
  resolveWithFullResponse: true,
  simple: false
};

// set the common parameters
request.setParameters({
  baseUrl: 'http://www.google.com',
  setting
});

// Get request with request-parameter dependency
const getPromise = request.send({
  method: 'get',
  urlParams: { homeId: 1 },
  queryParams: { offset: 0, limit: 100 },
  uri: '/home/{homeId}'
});

// Also can use async - await to wait the promises
getPromise.then((response) => {
  const statusCode = response.statusCode;
  const body = response.body;

  console.log(statusCode, ' ', body);
});

// Post request with request-parameter dependency
const postPromise = request.send({
  method: 'post',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  uri: '/home',
  body: { name: 'home view' }
});

postPromise.then((response) => {
  const statusCode = response.statusCode;
  const body = response.body;

  console.log(statusCode, ' ', body);
});

// Note the URIs don't exist so the request return 404 status code.
