Node Rest and Http Clients for use with TypeScript

Package Exports

  • typed-rest-client
  • typed-rest-client/Handlers
  • typed-rest-client/Handlers.js
  • typed-rest-client/HttpClient
  • typed-rest-client/HttpClient.js
  • typed-rest-client/RestClient
  • typed-rest-client/RestClient.js
  • typed-rest-client/Util
  • typed-rest-client/Util.js
  • typed-rest-client/handlers/bearertoken
  • typed-rest-client/handlers/bearertoken.js

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

Readme

Build Status

Typed REST and HTTP Client with TypeScript Typings

A lightweight REST and HTTP client optimized for use with TypeScript with generics and async await.

Features

  • REST and HTTP client with TypeScript generics and async/await/Promises
  • Typings included so no need to acquire separately (great for intellisense and no versioning drift)
  • Basic, Bearer and NTLM Support out of the box. Extensible handlers for others.
  • Proxy support
  • Certificate support (Self-signed server and client cert)
  • Redirects supported

Intellisense and compile support:

intellisense

Install

npm install typed-rest-client --save

Or to install the latest preview:

npm install typed-rest-client@preview --save

Samples

See the samples for complete coding examples. Also see the REST and HTTP tests for detailed examples.

Errors

HTTP

The HTTP client does not throw unless truly exceptional.

  • A request that successfully executes resulting in a 404, 500 etc... will return a response object with a status code and a body.
  • Redirects (3xx) will be followed by default.

See HTTP tests for detailed examples.

REST

The REST client is a high-level client which uses the HTTP client. Its responsibility is to turn a body into a typed resource object.

  • A 200 will be success.
  • Redirects (3xx) will be followed.
  • A 404 will not throw but the result object will be null and the result statusCode will be set.
  • Other 4xx and 5xx errors will throw. The status code will be attached to the error object. If a RESTful error object is returned ({ message: xxx}), then the error message will be that. Otherwise, it will be a generic, Failed Request: (xxx).

See REST tests for detailed examples.

Debugging

To enable detailed console logging of all HTTP requests and responses, set the NODE_DEBUG environment varible:

export NODE_DEBUG=http

or

set NODE_DEBUG=http

Node support

v2 - [current, maintained] - Supports node 16 and above v1 - End Of Life, for Node < 16, contains security vulnerabilities, use at your own risk
