Package Exports
- miniget
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 (miniget) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
node-miniget
A small http(s) GET library with only redirects, concatenating, streaming, and no dependencies. This keeps filesize small for potential browser use.
Usage
Concatenates a response
const miniget = require('miniget');
miniget('http://mywebsite.com', (err, body) => {
console.log('webpage contents: ', body);
}));Request can be streamed right away
miniget('http://api.mywebsite.com/v1/messages.json')
.pipe(someWritableStream());API
miniget(url, [options], [callback(err, body)])
Makes a GET request. options can have any options from the http.request() function, in addition to
maxRedirects - Default is 3.
highWaterMark - Amount of data to buffer when in stream mode.
transform - Use this to add additional features. Called with the object that http.get() or https.get() would be called with. Must return a transformed object.
If callback is given, will concatenate the response, and call callback with a possible error, and the response body.
Miniget returns a readable stream if callback is not given, errors will then be emitted on the stream. Returned stream also contains an .abort() method.
