#HTTPRequest v0.0.1#

A simple yet powerful HTTP request library inspired by jQuery and LSL written in Javascript for clientside and Serverside(Node.js) Javascript. Major thanks to node-XMLHttpRequest for giving us a XMLHttpRequest Object, that really helps make this both client/server.

Setup##

To set up HTTPRequest on your Node.js server use npm(case sensitive package name).

npm install HTTPRequest

If you want to use HTTPRequest on the client-side (browser), just include HTTPRequest.js into your page.

<script type='text/javascript' src='HTTPRequest.js'></script>

##Example## First, you have to do is require the HTTPRequest module (if you're using it client-side, this isn't necessary).

var HTTPRequest = require('HTTPRequest');

HTTPRequest.get('get_test.php', function(status, headers, content)
{
	console.log(status, headers, content);
});

##request## request(url, parameters, callback) A lower level function, but I hope you never really need to use it as post, get is a wrapper around it.

##post##

post(url, data, callback, options)

A url, data(object, can be empty also {}), callback are required. options is not required, but it can be a object.

##get## get(url, callback, options) url and callback are required.

options is not required, but it can be a object.

##delete## del(url, callback, options)

same as get

##put## put(url, data, callback, options)

same as post

##encode## encode(url)

takes a url and escapes it, then returns it.

##decode## encode(url)

takes a decodeed url and Unencode's it, then returns it.

##options##

*option names are NOT case sensitive.

• USERAGENT - string - Write your own user agent, default is node.js. Setting this ONLY works on the server.
• QUERY - string or object - appends to the end of the url.
• DATA - 'POST' or 'PUT' data string or object

##parameters## Everything as options, but also:

METHOD - string - 'GET', 'POST', 'PUT' and 'DELETE', default is 'GET'

##callback##

status, headers, content

• status - is HTTP code (like 404 or 200)
• headers - is a object with the respone headers
• content - The metadata `
