Quick Start

Import Grabo

Node.js / ES Modules

  baseURL: "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com",
  timeout: 5000, // 5 seconds timeout
});

Making Requests

GET Request

api.get("/posts/1").then((response) => {
  console.log(response.data);
});

POST Request

api.post("/posts", { title: "Hello", body: "World" }).then((response) => {
  console.log(response.data);
});

PUT Request

api.put("/posts/1", { title: "Updated" }).then((response) => {
  console.log(response.data);
});

PATCH Request

api.patch("/posts/1", { title: "Partial Update" }).then((response) => {
  console.log(response.data);
});

DELETE Request

api.delete("/posts/1").then((response) => {
  console.log("Deleted Successfully");
});

Configuration Options

You can pass the following options when creating a Grabo instance:

Example:

const api = new Grabo({
  baseURL: "https://example.com/api",
  headers: { Authorization: "Bearer token" },
  timeout: 5000,
  retries: 3,
});

Interceptors

Grabo allows you to modify requests and responses using interceptors.

Request Interceptor

api.useRequestInterceptor((config) => {
  config.headers["X-Custom-Header"] = "Hello";
  return config;
});

Response Interceptor

api.useResponseInterceptor((response) => {
  console.log("Response Received:", response);
  return response;
});

Timeout Handling

If a request exceeds the specified timeout, it will be automatically aborted.

const api = new Grabo({ timeout: 3000 });

api.get("/slow-endpoint").catch((error) => console.error(error.message)); // "Request timed out after 3000ms"

Automatic Retries

You can configure automatic retries for failed requests.

const api = new Grabo({ retries: 3, retryDelay: 2000 });

api
  .get("/unstable-endpoint")
  .then((response) => console.log(response.data))
  .catch((error) => console.error("Failed after 3 retries"));

Error Handling

Grabo provides structured error handling for failed requests.

api.get("/invalid-endpoint").catch((error) => {
  console.error("Error:", error.message);
});
