Package Exports

co-request

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (co-request) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

co-request

Simple wrapper to the request library for co-like interface (node.js generator based code). You can use it with koa or co

To install simply run:

npm install co-request

Require co first, also it will work on node v0.11.7 and newest only.

You must run node with --harmony flag (--harmony-generators as well)

node --harmony simple.js

Simple example:

"use strict";

let co = require("co");
let request = require("co-request");

co(function* () {
  // You can also pass options object, see http://github.com/mikeal/request docs
    let result = yield request("http://google.com"); 
    let response = result;
    let body = result.body;

    console.log("Response: ", response);
    console.log("Body: ", body);
}).catch(function (err) {
    console.err(err);
});

POST example:

"use strict";

co(function* () {
    let result = yield request({
        uri: "http://google.com",
        method: "POST"
    });
})();

To pipe request you should use small helper (thanks to greim):

function pipeRequest(readable, requestThunk){
  return function(cb){
    readable.pipe(requestThunk(cb));
  }
}

//..and then:

  var value = yield pipeRequest(this.req, request({...}));

All methods of request listed in Request docs
