## 📢 About

The package is inspired by lukeed [httpie](https://github.com/lukeed/httpie) (The use is relatively similar). This package use new Node.js http client [undici](https://github.com/nodejs/undici) under the hood.

## 🔬 Features

- Automatically parse based on the `content-type`.
- Automatically decompress based on the `content-encoding`.
- Includes aliases for common HTTP verbs: `get`, `post`, `put`, `patch`, and `del`.
- Able to automatically detect domains and paths to assign the right Agent (use a LRU cache to avoid repetitive computation).
- Allows to use an accurate rate-limiter like `p-ratelimit` with the `limit` option.
- Built-in retry mechanism with **custom policies**.
- Safe error handling with Rust-like [Result](https://github.com/OpenAlly/npm-packages/tree/main/src/result).

Thanks to undici:

- Support [HTTP redirections](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Redirections) with the `maxRedirections` argument.
- Implement high-level API for undici **stream** and **pipeline** method.
- High performance (see [benchmarks](https://undici.nodejs.org/#/?id=benchmarks)).
- Work well with **newest** Node.js API [AbortController](https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v16.x/docs/api/globals.html#globals_class_abortcontroller) to cancel http request.

Light with seriously maintained dependencies:

## 🚧 Requirements
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) version 20 or higher

## 🚀 Getting Started

This package is available in the Node Package Repository and can be easily installed with [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/what-is-npm) or [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com).

```bash
$ npm i @myunisoft/httpie
# or
$ yarn add @myunisoft/httpie
```

## 📚 Usage example

The MyUnisoft httpie client is very similar to lukeed httpie http client.

```js
import * as httpie from "@myunisoft/httpie";

try {
  const { data } = await httpie.get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts");
  console.log(data);
  
  const response = await httpie.post("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts", {
    body: {
      title: "foo",
      body: "bar",
      userId: 1
    }
  });

  console.log(response.statusCode);
  console.log(response.statusMessage);
  console.log(response.data);
}
catch (error) {
  console.log(error.message);
  console.log(error.statusCode);
  console.log(error.headers);
  console.log(error.data);
}
```

Since v2.0.0 you can also use the `safe` prefix API to get a `Promise<Result<T, E>>`

```ts
import * as httpie from "@myunisoft/httpie";

const response = (await httpie.safePost("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts", {
  body: {
    title: "foo",
    body: "bar",
    userId: 1
  }
}))
  .map((response) => response.data)
  .mapErr((error) => new Error("a message here!", { cause: error.data }));
  .unwrap();
```
