#ng-fetch

We start to implement ng-fetch (new generation - fetch), because the normal fetch api is not able to add missing features, for YEARS .... like upload, download progress ... and cancel requests. I want to have an lib that i can use in node and on the browser.

So we used polyfills:

Browser:

• Buffer

Node

• FormData / File

everything here is open-source :), be free to be part of it.

TODO: all features description TODO: add more examples

###Simple example (node and browser)

response object always has

status: http status code // negative codes if exception is raised

headers: response headers

response: response content as buffer

special if you use multipart/form-data

add specific polyfill for runtime

// for browser add node buffer to browser
import 'ng-fetch/browser';

// for node add browser formdata, file, blob to node
import 'ng-fetch/node';

import ngFetch from 'ng-fetch';

(async () => {
    const apiResponse = await ngFetch('http://api.plos.org/search?q=title:DNA');
    /*
