Installation

npm install ajaxclientjs
# or
yarn add ajaxclientjs

For direct browser usage, include the script:

<script src="dist/AjaxClient.js"></script>

Quick Start

// Create an instance
const ajax = new AjaxClient({
  baseURL: 'https://api.example.com',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer your-token'
  }
});

// Make a GET request
ajax.get('/users')
  .then(response => console.log(response.data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

// Make a POST request
ajax.post('/users', {
  name: 'John Doe',
  email: 'john@example.com'
})
  .then(response => console.log(response.data));

Advanced Usage

Configuration Options

const ajax = new AjaxClient({
  baseURL: 'https://api.example.com',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer token123'
  },
  timeout: 5000,           // 5 seconds
  retryAttempts: 3,        // Retry failed requests 3 times
  retryDelay: 1000,        // Wait 1 second between retries
  cache: true              // Enable caching for GET requests
});

Using Interceptors

// Request interceptor
ajax.addRequestInterceptor(options => {
  options.headers['X-Custom-Header'] = 'value';
  return options;
});

// Response interceptor
ajax.addResponseInterceptor(response => {
  response.data.timestamp = Date.now();
  return response;
});

Progress Tracking

ajax.post('/upload', formData, {
  onProgress: (event) => {
    const percent = (event.loaded / event.total) * 100;
    console.log(`Upload progress: ${percent}%`);
  }
});

Request Cancellation

const controller = new AbortController();

ajax.get('/large-data', {
  signal: controller.signal
});

// Cancel the request
controller.abort();

Caching

// Enable caching for specific request
ajax.get('/users', { cache: true });

// Clear cache
ajax.clearCache();

Multiple Data Formats

// JSON (default)
ajax.post('/api/data', { key: 'value' });

// FormData
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', fileInput.files[0]);
ajax.post('/api/upload', formData);

// URL-encoded
ajax.post('/api/form', data, {
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }
});
