hook-request v1.0.6

hook-request

This library provides a way to hook into the native XMLHttpRequest and Fetch API calls in a browser. It allows you to intercept requests and responses to execute custom logic such as logging.

Features

• Intercept and modify XHR and Fetch requests and responses.
• Access the request and response context.

Installation

npm install hook-request
// OR
yarn add hook-request
// OR
pnpm install hook-request

Usage

To use the hooking functionality, you need to call hookRequest with the desired options.

hookRequest(options, window?)

This function injects hooks into the browser's XHR and Fetch.

Parameters

• options: Configuration options for request hooks.

  The options allows you to specify the following optional callback functions:

  • onRequest: Called when request.
  • onResponse: Called when received response.
  • onError: Called when an error occurs during the request.

  Each callback provides a context object (IContext) which includes the request and response details, and for XHR, the actual XMLHttpRequest object.

• window: The global window object, defaults to the current window.

Return

Return An object containing unHook and reHook functions to remove or reapply the hook.

Example

import { hookRequest } from 'hook-request';

hookRequest({
  onRequest: (context, xhr) => {
    console.log('onRequest', context);
  },
  onResponse: (context, xhr) => {
    console.log('onResponse', context);
  },
  onError: (err, context) => {
    console.error('onError', err);
  }
});
