electron-http-transport

A web component to work with @advanced-rest-client/electron-request node package in web components environment.

Usage

To be used in renderer process as a web component.

<body>
  <arc-request-logic></arc-request-logic>
  <electron-http-transport></electron-http-transport>
</body>

const e = new CustomEvent('api-request', {
  bubbles: true,
  composed: true,
  cancelable: true,
  detail: {
    id: 'some id',
    url: 'https://api.mulesoft.com/',
    method: 'test'
  }
});
this.dispatchEvent(e);

window.addEventListener('api-response', (e) => {
  console.log(e.detail);
});

The arc-request-logic processes the request before sending it to the transport library. It processes variables and before request actions. It also dispatches before-request custom event so listeners can modify the request or cancel it.

When the request finally gets to the electron-http-transport component it is passed to @advanced-rest-client/electron-request with read request options like default timeout or hosts list. Finally the component communicate to arc-request-logic component that the response is ready.

Events

Each event contains the id property on the detail object which is original request id.

request-load-start - request is being loaded
request-first-byte-received - started receiving response
request-load-end - all data is now read

before-redirect

Dispatched before redirect occurs. It contains id and url properties on the detail object. The url is redirect location. If the event is cancelled then the redirection will be cancelled regardless of followRedirects setting.

headers-received

Dispatched right after all headers has been read. contains id and value properties on the detail object. The value is headers string.

If the event is cancelled then the request is aborted.

response-ready

Part of the arc request flow. Dispatched before the response is send to the response view. Any listener can modify response data during this event.

report-response

Part of the arc request flow. An event read by arc-request-logic component which runs response actions and reports the response to the view.

host-rules-list

Asks the application for the list of hosts rules. If the event is not cancelled then the value is ignored. The application must set result property on the detail object containing promise resolved to the list of rules.

settings-read

Asks the application for current settings. It contains settings property with only item set to requestDefaultTimeout so the application can limit settings value in the response.
