This project offers a base http client with standardized parameters, ready to be extended or injected

Quick Start

• To get this project running in your machine, first, install all dependencies npm install;
• Then, you need to create a .env file to set it up. You can use .env.staging or .env.test as an example;
• Finally, you can run npm run start:dev do test it directly running the .ts files;
• If you want to build it, run npm run build
• You can also run unit tests with coverage, with npm run test:coverage

Requirements

To guarantee the correct functioning of this package the following dependencies are required:

• Node v10.0 or higher
• TypeScript v3.0 or higher

How to use

This injecting purposes, BaseHttpClient can be extending and the constructor parameters passed with the corresponding injection tokens for your injection library, example:

@Injectable()
export class MyHttpClient extends BaseHttpClient {
	constructor(
		config: MyApiConfig,
		logger: Logger,
	) {
		super(config, logger);
	}
}

MyApiConfig must implements ApiConfig. The following properties are optional, though:

retries?: number; // default 0
logRequests?: boolean; // default false
contentType?: string; // default application/json

As you see, you also need to provide a Logger compatible with the Logger interface. Is you set logRequests to true, all the requests made by that instance of client will be logged i the curl format, which is very useful for debug purposes (but not quite production fit).

The methods get, post, put, delete and patch have a closed use and will return directly the body of the request. If you need more advanced use, rely on req, a method where you need to specify the verb of your http request as the first parameters, but it returns a known superagent request object with timeout, retry, content-type and, if enabled, the logger, already set,
