Package Exports

smartrequest

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 (smartrequest) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

import * as smartrequest from 'smartrequest'

// simple post
let options: smartrequest.ISmartRequestOptions = { // typed options
    headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
        "Authorization": "Bearer token"
    },
    requestBody: {
        key1: 'value1',
        key2: 3
    }
}

smartrequest.post('https://example.com', options).then(res => {
    console.log(res.status)
    console.log(res.body) // if json, body will be parsed automatically
}).catch(err => {
    console.log(err)
})

// also available
smartrequest.get(...)
smartrequest.put(...)
smartrequest.del(...)

// streaming
smartrequest.get('https://example.com/bigfile.mp4', optionsArg, true).then(res => { // third arg = true signals streaming
    console.log(res.status)
    res.on('data', data => {
        // do something with the data chunk here
    }
    res.on('end', () => {
        // do something when things have ended
    })
})
