Promise based dependency free HTTP request client for my own purposes. Feel free to use.

Installation

npm install --save git+https://github.com/nonamez/request.git

Available methods

request.get('http://nonamez.name').then(result => {
	console.log(result.response)
	console.log(result.body)
})

request.post('http://nonamez.name', {username: 'Kiril', password: 'password'}).then(result => {
	console.log(result.response)
	console.log(result.body)
})

request.download('http://nonamez.name/storage/images/email.png', 'email.png').then(result => {
	console.log(result.response)
})

Options

Each of above described methods as the last parameter accepts options object.

let options = {
	proxy: 'proxy:8080',
	headers: {
		'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2930.0 Safari/537.36',
	},
	tryToDecode: true // Tries to decode gzip
}

Proxy

This line will automatically load proxy and use it for each request. If you pass proxy through options it will overwrite it for current request.

request.useProxy('proxy.txt')

Timeout

Set request timeout if necessary

request.setTimeout(15000)

Redirects

Set maximum allowed redirects if necessary

request.setMaximumRedirects(5)
