Installation

Load tammy via classical <script> tag

<script src="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tammy/tammy.min.js"></script>

CommonJS style with npm

npm install tammy --save
npm install tammy-adapter-xhr --save
npm install tammy-plugin-xsrf --save

Usage

Performing a GET request

import { http } from 'tammy';
import xhr from 'tammy-adapter-xhr';
http.defaults.adapter = xhr;

// Make a request for a user with a given ID
http.get('/user?ID=12345')
  .then(function (response) {
    // handle success
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function (error) {
    // handle error
    console.log(error);
  })
  .then(function () {
    // always executed
  });

// Optionally the request above could also be done as
http.get('/user', {
  qs: {
    ID: 12345
  }
})
.then(function (response) {
  console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
  console.log(error);
})
.then(function () {
  // always executed
});  

// Want to use async/await? Add the `async` keyword to your outer function/method.
async function getUser() {
  try {
    const response = await http.get('/user?ID=12345');
    console.log(response);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
}

NOTE: async/await is part of ECMAScript 2017 and is not supported in Internet Explorer and older browsers, so use with caution.

Performing a POST request

import { http } from 'tammy';

request.post('/user', {
  firstName: 'Fred',
  lastName: 'Flintstone'
})
.then(function (response) {
  console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
  console.log(error);
});

Performing multiple concurrent requests

import { http } from 'tammy';

request.all([{
  url: '/user/12345',
  qs: {
    num: 1
  }
}, '/user/12345/permissions'])
  .then(function (arr) {
    // Both requests are now complete
  });

Requests can be made by passing the relevant options to http.

http(options)

// Send a POST request

import { http } from 'tammy';

http({
  method: 'post',
  url: '/user/12345',
  data: {
    firstName: 'Fred',
    lastName: 'Flintstone'
  }
});

http(url, options)

// Send a GET request (default method)

import { http } from 'tammy';

http('/user/12345');

Request method aliases

For convenience aliases have been provided for all supported request methods.

http(options)

http.get(url[, data, options])

http.delete(url[, data, options])

http.del(url[, data, options])

http.head(url[, data, options])

http.options(url[, data, options])

http.post(url[, data, options])

http.put(url[, data, options])

http.patch(url[, data, options])

NOTE: When using the alias methods url, method, and data properties don't need to be specified in options.

Creating an instance

You can create a new instance of tammy with a custom options.

create(options)

import { create } from 'tammy';
import xhr from 'tammy-adapter-xhr';

const instance = create({
  baseUrl: 'https://some-domain.com/api/',
  timeout: 1000,
  headers: {'X-Custom-Header': 'foobar'},
  adapter: xhr
});

Instance methods

The available instance methods are listed below. The specified options will be merged with the instance options.

instance(options)

instance.get(url[, data, options])

instance.delete(url[, data, options])

instance.del(url[, data, options])

instance.head(url[, data, options])

instance.options(url[, data, options])

instance.post(url[, data, options])

instance.put(url[, data, options])

instance.patch(url[, data, options])


Request Options

These are the available options for making requests. Only the url is required. Requests will default to GET if method is not specified.

  • url - the server url will be used for the request.
  • baseUrl - fully qualified uri string used as the base url, for example when you want to do many requests to the same domain. If baseUrl is https://example.com/api/, then requesting /end/point?test=true will fetch https://example.com/api/end/point?test=true. When baseUrl is given, uri must also be a string.
  • method - the request method can be used when making the request (default: "GET").
  • headers - custom headers can be sent (default: {'Accept': 'application/json, text/plain, */*'}).
{
  headers: {'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest'}
}
  • qs - the url parameters can be sent with the request that is a plain object or query string.
  • data - the data can be sent as the request body(object、json string or form string), and it is also compatible with qs when qs is null.
  • cache - set false that url will be appended timestamp if method is HEAD DELETE or GET
  • timeout - integer containing number of milliseconds, controls two timeouts (default: 0 no timeout).
    • Read timeout: Time to wait for a server to send response headers (and start the response body) before aborting the request.
    • Connection timeout: Sets the socket to timeout after timeout milliseconds of inactivity. Note that increasing the timeout beyond the OS-wide TCP connection timeout will not have any effect (the default in Linux can be anywhere from 20-120 seconds)
{
  adapter: function (options) {
    /* ... */
  }
}
  • validateStatus - defines whether to resolve or reject the promise for a given HTTP response status code. If validateStatus returns true (or is set to null or undefined), the promise will be resolved; otherwise, the promise will be rejected (default: (status >= 200 && status < 300) || status === 304.
{
  validateStatus: function (status) {
    return (status >= 200 && status < 300) || status === 304; // default
  }
}
  • cancelToken - specifies a cancel token that can be used to abort the request (see CancelToken section below for details)
let cancelToken;
// ...

{
  cancelToken: function(token) {
    cancelToken = token;
  }
}
  • responseType - indicates the type of data that the server will respond with options are 'arraybuffer', 'blob', 'document', 'json', 'text', 'stream' (default: "json").

  • withCredentials - indicates whether or not cross-site Access-Control requests (default: false).
  • auth - indicates that HTTP Basic auth should be used, and supplies credentials. This will set an Authorization header, overwriting any existing Authorization custom headers you have set using headers. before setting auth you must preload auth plugin (see Installation section below for details)
{
  auth: {
    username: 'janedoe',
    password: 's00pers3cret'
  }
}
  • xsrfCookieName the name of the cookie use as a value for xsrf token (default: "XSRF-TOKEN").
  • xsrfHeaderName the name of the http header that carries the xsrf token value (default: "X-XSRF-TOKEN").
  • onUploadProgress - allows handling of progress events for uploads.
{
  onUploadProgress: function (progressEvent) {
    // Do whatever you want with the native progress event
  }
}
  • onDownloadProgress - allows handling of progress events for downloads.
{
  onDownloadProgress: function (progressEvent) {
    // Do whatever you want with the native progress event
  }
}

Response Schema

The response for a request contains the following information.

{
  // `data` is the response that was provided by the server
  data: {},

  // `status` is the HTTP status code from the server response
  status: 200,

  // `statusText` is the HTTP status message from the server response
  statusText: 'OK',

  // `headers` the headers that the server responded with
  // All header names are lower cased
  headers: {},

  // `config` is the config that was provided to `tammy` for the request
  config: {},

  // `request` is the request that generated this response
  // It is the last ClientRequest instance in node.js (in redirects)
  // and an XMLHttpRequest instance the browser
  request: {}
}

When using then, you will receive the response as follows:

import { http } from 'tammy';

http.get('/user/12345')
  .then(function (response) {
    console.log(response.data);
    console.log(response.status);
    console.log(response.statusText);
    console.log(response.headers);
    console.log(response.config);
  });

When using catch, or passing a rejection callback as second parameter of then, the response will be available through the error object as explained in the Handling Errors section.

Options Defaults

You can specify config defaults that will be applied to every request.

Global http defaults

import { http } from 'tammy';

http.defaults.baseUrl = 'https://api.example.com';
http.headers.common.Authorization = AUTH_TOKEN;
http.headers.post['Content-Type'] = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded';
});

Custom instance defaults

// Set config defaults when creating the instance
import { create } from 'tammy';

const instance = create({
  baseUrl: 'https://api.example.com'
});

// Alter defaults after instance has been created
instance.headers.common.Authorization = AUTH_TOKEN;

Config order of precedence

Config will be merged with an order of precedence. The order is library defaults found in lib/Tammy.js, then defaults property of the instance, and finally config argument for the request. The latter will take precedence over the former. Here's an example.

// Create an instance using the config defaults provided by the library
// At this point the timeout config value is `0` as is the default for the library

import { create } from 'tammy';

const instance = create();

// Override timeout default for the library
// Now all requests using this instance will wait 2.5 seconds before timing out
instance.defaults.timeout = 2500;

// Override timeout for this request as it's known to take a long time
instance.get('/longRequest', {
  timeout: 5000
});

Interceptors

You can intercept requests or responses before they are handled by then or catch.

// Add a request interceptor
import { http } from 'tammy';

const interceptorId = http.interceptors.request.use(function({ interceptors }) {
  // Do something before request is sent
  return config;
}, function (error) {
  // Do something with request error
  return Promise.reject(error);
});

// Add a response interceptor
http.interceptors.response.use(function (response) {
  // Do something with response data
  return response;
}, function (error) {
  // Do something with response error
  return Promise.reject(error);
});

If you may need to remove a interceptor later you can.

http.interceptors.request.eject(interceptorId);
http.interceptors.request.eject(1);

You can add interceptors to a custom instance of tammy.

import { create } from 'tammy';

const instance = create();
// Add a request interceptor
instance.interceptors.request.use(function({ interceptors }) {
  // Do something before request is sent
  return config;
}, function (error) {
  // Do something with request error
  return Promise.reject(error);
});

// Add a response interceptor
instance.interceptors.request.use(function (response) {
  // Do something with response data
  return response;
}, function (error) {
  // Do something with response error
  return Promise.reject(error);
});

Handling Errors

http.get('/user/12345')
  .catch(function (error) {
    if (error.response) {
      // The request was made and the server responded with a status code
      // that falls out of the range of 2xx
      console.log(error.response.data);
      console.log(error.response.status);
      console.log(error.response.headers);
    } else if (error.request) {
      // The request was made but no response was received
      // `error.request` is an instance of XMLHttpRequest in the browser and an instance of
      // http.ClientRequest in node.js
      console.log(error.request);
    } else {
      // Something happened in setting up the request that triggered an Error
      console.log('Error', error.message);
    }
    console.log(error.config);
  });

You can define a custom HTTP status code error range using the validateStatus config option.

http.get('/user/12345', {
  validateStatus: function (status) {
    return status < 500; // Reject only if the status code is greater than or equal to 500
  }
})

CancelToken

You can cancel a request using a CancelToken.

let cancelToken;

http.get('/user/12345', {
  cancelToken(token) {
    cancelToken = token;
  }
}).catch(function (thrown) {
  if (isCancelled(thrown)) {
    console.log('Request cancelled', thrown.message);
  } else {
    // handle error
  }
});

http.post('/user/12345', {
  name: 'new name'
})

// cancel the request (the message parameter is optional)
http.cancel(cancelToken, 'Operation aborted by the user.');

// cancel all requests
http.cancelAll();

Note: you can abort several requests.
