@autosec/fetchhole v0.1.1-nightly.0

FetchHole

Elevate your Function as a Service (FaaS) development with enhanced security at the edge using @autosec/fetchhole. This package acts as a sophisticated drop-in replacement for the native fetch() function, tailored for developers who emphasize security in their web applications.

Features

• Drop-in Replacement: Seamlessly integrates with existing code, replacing the native fetch() function.
• Advanced Logging: Comprehensive logging capabilities for effective debugging.
• Redirect Intercept: Customize redirect limits with a default of 20, as per the WHATWG Fetch specification.
• Header Computation: Automatically computes and adds missing Content-Length and ETag headers. Choose your preferred ETag hash algorithm, with sha256 as the default.
• Cache Support: Utilizes memory or disk caching via the Cache Web API. Compatible with Cloudflare's cache API for Cloudflare users.
• Intercept for Alternate Routing: Ideal for scenarios like Cloudflare Workers Binding, allowing for alternate request routing.
• Custom DNS Resolver Support: Designed for DNS level security applications like Zero Trust services. Compatible with any DoH resolver that uses 0.0.0.0 for blocking.
  • Direct IP Address Handling: Offers three modes for handling direct IP address access:
    • Full Block
    • Fail if No PTR Record (conducts a PTR record check, followed by a standard DNS check)
    • Allow

Installation

npm install @autosec/fetchhole

Usage

Simply import fetchhole and use it as a replacement for the native fetch() function.

import fetch from '@autosec/fetchhole';

// Use fetch as you normally would
fetch('https://example.com').then((response) => {
	// Your code here
});

Configuration

You can customize fetchhole with various options to suit your needs. Settings can be applied at the class instance level or as an fetch init property:

{
	cache: {
		type: CacheType.Default, // Defines cache type
		hashAlgorithm: 'sha256', // Choose a different ETag hash algorithm
		ignoreMethod: false,
		ignoreSearch: false,
		ignoreVary: false,
	},
	hardFail: true, // Determines failure handling
	logLevel: LoggingLevel.INFO, // Sets the level of logging
	redirectCount: 20, // Set custom redirect limit
}
