### Advanced
|
|
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
|
|
<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars -->
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const Wreck = require('wreck');
|
|
|
|
const method = 'GET'; // GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
|
|
const uri = '/';
|
|
const readableStream = Wreck.toReadableStream('foo=bar');
|
|
|
|
const wreck = Wreck.defaults({
|
|
headers: { 'x-foo-bar': 123 },
|
|
agents: {
|
|
https: new Https.Agent({ maxSockets: 100 }),
|
|
http: new Http.Agent({ maxSockets: 1000 }),
|
|
httpsAllowUnauthorized: new Https.Agent({ maxSockets: 100, rejectUnauthorized: false })
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// cascading example -- does not alter `wreck`
|
|
// inherits `headers` and `agents` specified above
|
|
const wreckWithTimeout = wreck.defaults({
|
|
timeout: 5
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// all attributes are optional
|
|
const options = {
|
|
baseUrl: 'https://www.example.com',
|
|
payload: readableStream || 'foo=bar' || Buffer.from('foo=bar'),
|
|
headers: { /* http headers */ },
|
|
redirects: 3,
|
|
beforeRedirect: (redirectMethod, statusCode, location, resHeaders, redirectOptions, next) => next(),
|
|
redirected: function (statusCode, location, req) {},
|
|
timeout: 1000, // 1 second, default: unlimited
|
|
maxBytes: 1048576, // 1 MB, default: unlimited
|
|
rejectUnauthorized: true || false,
|
|
downstreamRes: null,
|
|
agent: null, // Node Core http.Agent
|
|
secureProtocol: 'SSLv3_method', // The SSL method to use
|
|
ciphers: 'DES-CBC3-SHA' // The TLS ciphers to support
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
const example = async function () {
|
|
|
|
const promise = wreck.request(method, uri, options);
|
|
try {
|
|
const res = await promise;
|
|
const body = await Wreck.read(res, options);
|
|
console.log(body.toString());
|
|
}
|
|
catch (err) {
|
|
// Handle errors
|
|
}
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `promise.req.abort()` to terminate the request early. Note that this is limited to the initial request only.
|
|
If the request was already redirected, aborting the original request will not abort execution of pending redirections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `defaults(options)`
|
|
|
|
Returns a *new* instance of Wreck which merges the provided `options` with those provided on a per-request basis. You can call defaults repeatedly to build up multiple http clients.
|
|
- `options` - Config object containing settings for both `request` and `read` operations.
|
|
|
|
### `request(method, uri, [options])`
|
|
|
|
Initiate an HTTP request.
|
|
- `method` - A string specifying the HTTP request method, defaulting to 'GET'.
|
|
- `uri` - The URI of the requested resource.
|
|
- `options` - An optional configuration object. To omit this argument but still
|
|
use a callback, pass `null` in this position. The options object supports the
|
|
following optional keys:
|
|
- `baseUrl` - fully qualified uri string used as the base url. Most useful with `request.defaults`, 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`. Any
|
|
querystring in the `baseUrl` will be overwritten with the querystring in the `uri` When `baseUrl` is given, `uri` must also be a string.
|
|
- `socketPath` - `/path/to/unix/socket` for Server.
|
|
- `payload` - The request body as a string, Buffer, Readable Stream, or an object that can be serialized using `JSON.stringify()`.
|
|
- `headers` - An object containing request headers.
|
|
- `redirects` - The maximum number of redirects to follow.
|
|
- `redirect303` - if `true`, a HTTP 303 status code will redirect using a GET method. Defaults to no redirection on 303.
|
|
- `beforeRedirect` - A callback function that is called before a redirect is triggered, using the signature
|
|
`function(redirectMethod, statusCode, location, resHeaders, redirectOptions, next)` where:
|
|
- `redirectMethod` - A string specifying the redirect method.
|
|
- `statusCode` - HTTP status code of the response that triggered the redirect.
|
|
- `location` - The redirect location string.
|
|
- `resHeaders` - An object with the headers received as part of the redirection response.
|
|
- `redirectOptions` - Options that will be applied to the redirect request. Changes to this object are applied to the redirection request.
|
|
- `next` - the callback function called to perform the redirection using signature `function()`.
|
|
- `redirected` - A callback function that is called when a redirect was triggered, using the signature `function(statusCode, location, req)` where:
|
|
- `statusCode` - HTTP status code of the response that triggered the redirect.
|
|
- `location` - The redirected location string.
|
|
- `req` - The new [ClientRequest](http://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_clientrequest) object which replaces the one initially returned.
|
|
- `timeout` - The number of milliseconds to wait without receiving a response
|
|
before aborting the request. Defaults to unlimited.
|
|
- `rejectUnauthorized` - [TLS](http://nodejs.org/api/tls.html) flag indicating
|
|
whether the client should reject a response from a server with invalid certificates. This cannot be set at the
|
|
same time as the `agent` option is set.
|
|
- `downstreamRes`: downstream Resource dependency.
|
|
- `agent` - Node Core [http.Agent](http://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_agent).
|
|
Defaults to either `wreck.agents.http` or `wreck.agents.https`. Setting to `false` disables agent pooling.
|
|
- `secureProtocol` - [TLS](http://nodejs.org/api/tls.html) flag indicating the SSL method to use, e.g. `SSLv3_method`
|
|
to force SSL version 3. The possible values depend on your installation of OpenSSL. Read the official OpenSSL docs
|
|
for possible [SSL_METHODS](http://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/ssl.html#DEALING_WITH_PROTOCOL_METHODS).
|
|
- `ciphers` - [TLS](https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tls_modifying_the_default_tls_cipher_suite) list of TLS ciphers to override node's default.
|
|
The possible values depend on your installation of OpenSSL. Read the official OpenSSL docs
|
|
for possible [TLS_CIPHERS](https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/apps/ciphers.html#CIPHER-LIST-FORMAT).
|
|
|
|
Returns a promise that resolves into a node response object. The promise has a `req` property which is the instance of the node.js
|
|
[ClientRequest](http://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_clientrequest) object.
|
|
|
|
### `read(response, options)`
|
|
- `response` - An HTTP Incoming Message object.
|
|
- `options` - `null` or a configuration object with the following optional keys:
|
|
- `timeout` - The number of milliseconds to wait while reading data before
|
|
aborting handling of the response. Defaults to unlimited.
|
|
- `json` - A value indicating how to try to parse the payload as JSON. Defaults to `undefined` meaning no parse logic.
|
|
- `true`, 'smart' - only try `JSON.parse` if the response indicates a JSON content-type.
|
|
- `strict` - as 'smart', except returns an error for non-JSON content-type.
|
|
- `force` - try `JSON.parse` regardless of the content-type header.
|
|
- `gunzip` - A value indicating the behavior to adopt when the payload is gzipped. Defaults to `undefined` meaning no gunzipping.
|
|
- `true` - only try to gunzip if the response indicates a gzip content-encoding.
|
|
- `false` - explicitly disable gunzipping.
|
|
- `force` - try to gunzip regardless of the content-encoding header.
|
|
- `maxBytes` - The maximum allowed response payload size. Defaults to unlimited.
|
|
|
|
Returns a promise that resolves into the payload in the form of a Buffer or (optionally) parsed JavaScript object (JSON).
|
|
|
|
#### Notes about gunzip
|
|
|
|
When using gunzip, HTTP headers `Content-Encoding`, `Content-Length`, `Content-Range` and `ETag` won't reflect the reality as the payload has been uncompressed.

|
### `toReadableStream(payload, [encoding])`
|
|
|
|
Creates a [readable stream](http://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_class_stream_readable)
|
|
for the provided payload and encoding.
|
|
- `payload` - The Buffer or string to be wrapped in a readable stream.
|
|
- `encoding` - The encoding to use. Must be a valid Buffer encoding, such as 'utf8' or 'ascii'.
|
|
|
|
<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars -->
|
|
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const stream = Wreck.toReadableStream(Buffer.from('Hello', 'ascii'), 'ascii');
|
|
const read = stream.read();
|
|
// read -> 'Hello'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `parseCacheControl(field)`
|
|
|
|
Parses the provided *cache-control* request header value into an object containing
|
|
a property for each directive and it's value. Boolean directives, such as "private"
|
|
or "no-cache" will be set to the boolean `true`.
|
|
- `field` - The header cache control value to be parsed.
|
|
|
|
<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars -->
|
|
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const result = Wreck.parseCacheControl('private, max-age=0, no-cache');
|
|
// result.private -> true
|
|
// result['max-age'] -> 0
|
|
// result['no-cache'] -> true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `agents`
|
|
|
|
Object that contains the agents for pooling connections for `http` and `https`.
|
|
The properties are `http`, `https`, and `httpsAllowUnauthorized` which is an
|
|
`https` agent with `rejectUnauthorized` set to false. All agents have
|
|
`maxSockets` configured to `Infinity`. They are each instances of the Node.js
|
|
[Agent](http://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_agent) and expose the
|
|
standard properties.
|
|
|
|
For example, the following code demonstrates changing `maxSockets` on the `http`
|
|
agent.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const Wreck = require('wreck');
|
|
|
|
Wreck.agents.http.maxSockets = 20;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Below is another example that sets the certificate details for all HTTPS requests.
|
|
|
|
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
|
|
```js
|
|
const HTTPS = require('https');
|
|
const Wreck = require('wreck');
|
|
|
|
Wreck.agents.https = new HTTPS.Agent({
|
|
cert,
|
|
key,
|
|
ca
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Events
|
|
|
|
To enable events, use `Wreck.defaults({ events: true })`. Events are available via the
|
|
`events` emitter attached to the client returned by `Wreck.defaults()`.
|
|
|
|
#### `request`
|
|
|
|
The request event is emitted just before *wreck* makes a request. The
|
|
handler should accept the following arguments `(uri, options)` where:
|
|
|
|
- `uri` - the result of `Url.parse(uri)`. This will provide information about
|
|
the resource requested. Also includes the headers and method.
|
|
- `options` - the options passed into the request function. This will include
|
|
a payload if there is one.
|
|
|
|
Since the `request` event executes on a global event handler, you can intercept
|
|
and decorate a request before its sent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `response`
|
|
|
|
The response event is always emitted for any request that *wreck* makes. The
|
|
handler should accept the following arguments `(err, details)` where:
|
|
|
|
- `err` - a Boom error
|
|
- `details` - object with the following properties
|
|
- `req` - the raw `ClientHttp` request object
|
|
- `res` - the raw `IncomingMessage` response object
|
|
- `start` - the time that the request was initiated
|
|
- `uri` - the result of `Url.parse(uri)`. This will provide information about
|
|
the resource requested. Also includes the headers and method.
|
|
|
|
This event is useful for logging all requests that go through *wreck*. The `err`
|
|
and `res` arguments can be undefined depending on if an error occurs. Please
|
|
be aware that if multiple modules are depending on the same cached *wreck*
|
|
module that this event can fire for each request made across all modules. The
|
|
`start` property is the timestamp when the request was started. This can be
|
|
useful for determining how long it takes *wreck* to get a response back and
|
|
processed.
|
