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:
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
The typed-rest-client is built using the latest LTS version of Node 8. We also support the latest LTS for Node 4 and Node 6.
