see-ajax

An ajax wrapper, with response refactoring, pre handling, post handling, etc.

requirements

• json-refactor
• reqwest

related

• see-fetch

note

Only for json response.

quick start

npm install see-ajax --save

import seeAjax from 'see-ajax';

// configure application
seeAjax.config(name, {
  method,
  stringify,
  settings,
  url,
  req,
  refactor,
  pre,
  post,
  implement,
});

// make a request
seeAjax(name, params, successCallback, errorCallback);

config options

method: which http method to use

• type: string
• default: get

'post/put/delete'

stringify: whether to stringify request params

• type: bool
• default: false

If true, the server will receive string, but not key-value pairs.

If GET method, request params will not stringify at any time.

settings: extra reqwest options

• type: map
• default: {}

url: url to request

• type: string
• default: empty string

req/requestKeys: keys mapping of request params

• type: map
• default: {}

{sourceKey: 'newKey'}

refactor/responseRefactor: rules to refactor response using json-refactor

• type: map
• default: {}

refactor: rules

• rules: see json-refactor

pre/preHandle: more handling to request params

• type: function

(params, name) => {... modify params, or return a new params ...}

post/postHandle: more handling to response data

• type: function

(result, params, name) => {... modify result, or return a new result }

implement: custom implementing instead of ajax

• type: function

(cb, params) => { ... cb(result) }

Sometimes, you have to not use ajax, but other ways, like html templates.

api

seeAjax.config: configure application

// one
seeAjax.config(name, options);

// multiple
seeAjax.config({
  name1: options1,
  name2: options2,
  ...
});

seeAjax.setEnv: set current environment(index to get config options)

seeAjax.setEnv(0/1/2/3);

If you need multiple environments supports, you can configure all config options by array, and then set a env.

If you don't set an environment, 0 will be the default.

seeAjax.config(name, {
  method: [method1, method2, ...],
  stringify: [stringify1, stringify2, ...],
  settings: [settings1, settings2, ...],
  url: [url1, url2, ...],
  req: [req1, req2, ...],
  refactor: [refactor1, refactor2, ...],
  pre: [pre1, pre2, ...],
  post: [post1, post2, ...],
  implement: [implement1, implement2, ...],
});

seeAjax.setEnv(0); // method1, stringify1, url1, ...
seeAjax.setEnv(1); // method2, stringify2, url2, ...

seeAjax.getEnv: get current environment

const env = seeAjax.getEnv(); // 0/1/2/3

seeAjax: make a request

seeAjax(name, params, successCallback, errorCallback);

• name: defined request name
  • note: common is a special request name, and it will apply to all requests
• params: request params
  • type: map
  • example: {a: 1, b: '2'}
• successCallback: callback when ajax success
  • example: res => { ... }
• errorCallback: callback when ajax occurs errors
  • example: error => { ... }

seeAjax.set: set custom config

seeAjax.set({
  debug: !0,
  disableCache: !0,
  disableCacheField: '_',
});

• debug: type: bool default: true whether in debug mode
• disableCache: type: bool default: true disable request cache for GET, HEAD methods
• disableCacheField: type: string default: _ field name for appending timestamp to original url when disableCache is true

6. pre: more handling before send a request
   1. common: common handling, if have
   2. name: named handling
7. implement: if have, see-ajax will not send an ajax
8. refactor: refactoring response data
   1. common: common handling, if have
   2. name: named handling
9. post: more handling after refactoring response data
