fishingrod v4.1.1

fishingrod

A simple module for making http requests, depends on nothing but http and https.

NOTE: this is not intended to be a full-featured http package, or a full-tested module. This is a simple, working http module, that permits very simple requests. Do not use in production without testing.

Simple Example

const fishingrod = require('fishingrod');

fishingrod.fish({
	https:true,
	host: 'example.com',
	path: '/obj/1'
},
function(err, st, res){
	console.log(res);
});

fishingrod.fish({
	https:true,
	host: 'example.com',
	path: '/obj/2'
}).then(function(res){
	console.log(res.response);
});

API

fishingrod works in a very simple way using different parameters. A simple request will typically use https, host, path, method and data & headers if needed.

Some more parameters are also available if you would ever need them, and direct url pasting (request style) is also applicable.

Utility methods

You can also call fishingrod with only a url using the utility methods. These are .get, .post, .put, .delete, ._method. They all take (url [STRING], data[OBJECT], headers[OBJECT]) as params, except _method which takes (method, [STRING CAPITALS], url [STRING], data[OBJECT], headers[OBJECT]).

const fishingrod = require('fishingrod');

fishingrod.get('http://google.com', {query:'Bottomatik chatbots'}, {'Accept':'application/pdf'});
