This is equivalent to calling `got.stream(url, [options])`. - -###### body - -Type: `string` `Buffer` `stream.Readable` [`form-data` instance](https://github.com/form-data/form-data) - -**Note:** If you provide this option, `got.stream()` will be read-only. - -The body that will be sent with a `POST` request. - -If present in `options` and `options.method` is not set, `options.method` will be set to `POST`. - -The `content-length` header will be automatically set if `body` is a `string` / `Buffer` / `fs.createReadStream` instance / [`form-data` instance](https://github.com/form-data/form-data), and `content-length` and `transfer-encoding` are not manually set in `options.headers`. - -###### cookieJar - -Type: [`tough.CookieJar` instance](https://github.com/salesforce/tough-cookie#cookiejar) - -**Note:** If you provide this option, `options.headers.cookie` will be overridden. - -Cookie support. You don't have to care about parsing or how to store them.

If `null`, the body is returned as a [`Buffer`](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) (binary data). - -###### form - -Type: `boolean`<br> -Default: `false` - -**Note:** If you provide this option, `got.stream()` will be read-only. -**Note:** `body` must be a plain object. It will be converted to a query string using [`(new URLSearchParams(object)).toString()`](https://nodejs.org/api/url.html#url_constructor_new_urlsearchparams_obj). - -If set to `true` and `Content-Type` header is not set, it will be set to `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`. - -###### json - -Type: `boolean`<br> -Default: `false` - -**Note:** If you use `got.stream()`, this option will be ignored. -**Note:** `body` must be a plain object or array and will be stringified. - -If set to `true` and `Content-Type` header is not set, it will be set to `application/json`. - -Parse response body with `JSON.parse` and set `accept` header to `application/json`. If used in conjunction with the `form` option, the `body` will the stringified as querystring and the response parsed as JSON. - -###### query - -Type: `string` `Object<string, string|number>` [`URLSearchParams`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URLSearchParams) - -Query string that will be added to the request URL. This will override the query string in `url`. - -If you need to pass in an array, you can do it using a `URLSearchParams` instance: - -```js -const got = require('got'); - -const query = new URLSearchParams([['key', 'a'], ['key', 'b']]); - -got('https://example.com', {query}); - -console.log(query.toString()); -//=> 'key=a&key=b' -``` - -And if you need a different array format, you could use the [`query-string`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/query-string) package: - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const queryString = require('query-string'); - -const query = queryString.stringify({key: ['a', 'b']}, {arrayFormat: 'bracket'}); - -got('https://example.com', {query}); - -console.log(query); -//=> 'key[]=a&key[]=b' -``` - -###### timeout - -Type: `number` `Object` - -Milliseconds to wait for the server to end the response before aborting the request with [`got.TimeoutError`](#gottimeouterror) error (a.k.a. `request` property). By default, there's no timeout. - -This also accepts an `object` with the following fields to constrain the duration of each phase of the request lifecycle: - -- `lookup` starts when a socket is assigned and ends when the hostname has been resolved. Does not apply when using a Unix domain socket. -- `connect` starts when `lookup` completes (or when the socket is assigned if lookup does not apply to the request) and ends when the socket is connected. -- `secureConnect` starts when `connect` completes and ends when the handshaking process completes (HTTPS only). -- `socket` starts when the socket is connected. See [request.setTimeout](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_request_settimeout_timeout_callback). -- `response` starts when the request has been written to the socket and ends when the response headers are received. -- `send` starts when the socket is connected and ends with the request has been written to the socket. -- `request` starts when the request is initiated and ends when the response's end event fires. - -###### retry - -Type: `number` `Object`<br> -Default: -- retries: `2` -- methods: `GET` `PUT` `HEAD` `DELETE` `OPTIONS` `TRACE` -- statusCodes: [`408`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/408) [`413`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/413) [`429`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/429) [`500`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/500) [`502`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/502) [`503`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/503) [`504`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/504) -- maxRetryAfter: `undefined` -- errorCodes: `ETIMEDOUT` `ECONNRESET` `EADDRINUSE` `ECONNREFUSED` `EPIPE` `ENOTFOUND` `ENETUNREACH` `EAI_AGAIN` - -An object representing `retries`, `methods`, `statusCodes`, `maxRetryAfter` and `errorCodes` fields for the time until retry, allowed methods, allowed status codes, maximum [`Retry-After`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Retry-After) time and allowed error codes. - -If `maxRetryAfter` is set to `undefined`, it will use `options.timeout`.<br> -If [`Retry-After`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Retry-After) header is greater than `maxRetryAfter`, it will cancel the request. - -Delays between retries counts with function `1000 * Math.pow(2, retry) + Math.random() * 100`, where `retry` is attempt number (starts from 1). - -The `retries` property can be a `number` or a `function` with `retry` and `error` arguments. The function must return a delay in milliseconds (`0` return value cancels retry). - -By default, it retries *only* on the specified methods, status codes, and on these network errors: -- `ETIMEDOUT`: One of the [timeout](#timeout) limits were reached. -- `ECONNRESET`: Connection was forcibly closed by a peer. -- `EADDRINUSE`: Could not bind to any free port. -- `ECONNREFUSED`: Connection was refused by the server. -- `EPIPE`: The remote side of the stream being written has been closed. -- `ENOTFOUND`: Couldn't resolve the hostname to an IP address. -- `ENETUNREACH`: No internet connection. -- `EAI_AGAIN`: DNS lookup timed out. - -###### followRedirect - -Type: `boolean`<br> -Default: `true` - -Defines if redirect responses should be followed automatically. - -Note that if a `303` is sent by the server in response to any request type (`POST`, `DELETE`, etc.), Got will automatically request the resource pointed to in the location header via `GET`. This is in accordance with [the spec](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-6.4.4). - -###### decompress - -Type: `boolean`<br> -Default: `true` - -Decompress the response automatically. This will set the `accept-encoding` header to `gzip, deflate` unless you set it yourself. - -If this is disabled, a compressed response is returned as a `Buffer`. This may be useful if you want to handle decompression yourself or stream the raw compressed data. - -###### cache - -Type: `Object`<br> -Default: `false` - -[Cache adapter instance](#cache-adapters) for storing cached data. - -###### request - -Type: `Function`<br> -Default: `http.request` `https.request` *(depending on the protocol)* - -Custom request function. The main purpose of this is to [support HTTP2 using a wrapper](#experimental-http2-support). - -###### useElectronNet - -Type: `boolean`<br> -Default: `false` - -When used in Electron, Got will use [`electron.net`](https://electronjs.org/docs/api/net/) instead of the Node.js `http` module. According to the Electron docs, it should be fully compatible, but it's not entirely. See [#443](https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/issues/443) and [#461](https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/issues/461). - -###### throwHttpErrors - -Type: `boolean`<br> -Default: `true` - -Determines if a `got.HTTPError` is thrown for error responses (non-2xx status codes). - -If this is disabled, requests that encounter an error status code will be resolved with the `response` instead of throwing. This may be useful if you are checking for resource availability and are expecting error responses. - -###### agent - -Same as the [`agent` option](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_http_request_url_options_callback) for `http.request`, but with an extra feature: - -If you require different agents for different protocols, you can pass a map of agents to the `agent` option. This is necessary because a request to one protocol might redirect to another. In such a scenario, Got will switch over to the right protocol agent for you. - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const HttpAgent = require('agentkeepalive'); -const {HttpsAgent} = HttpAgent; - -got('sindresorhus.com', { - agent: { - http: new HttpAgent(), - https: new HttpsAgent() - } -}); -``` - -###### hooks - -Type: `Object<string, Function[]>` - -Hooks allow modifications during the request lifecycle. Hook functions may be async and are run serially. - -###### hooks.init - -Type: `Function[]`<br> -Default: `[]` - -Called with plain [request options](#options), right before their normalization. This is especially useful in conjunction with [`got.extend()`](#instances) and [`got.create()`](advanced-creation.md) when the input needs custom handling. - -See the [Request migration guide](migration-guides.md#breaking-changes) for an example. - -**Note**: This hook must be synchronous! - -###### hooks.beforeRequest - -Type: `Function[]`<br> -Default: `[]` - -Called with [normalized](source/normalize-arguments.js) [request options](#options). Got will make no further changes to the request before it is sent. This is especially useful in conjunction with [`got.extend()`](#instances) and [`got.create()`](advanced-creation.md) when you want to create an API client that, for example, uses HMAC-signing. - -See the [AWS section](#aws) for an example. - -**Note:** If you modify the `body` you will need to modify the `content-length` header too, because it has already been computed and assigned. - -###### hooks.beforeRedirect - -Type: `Function[]`<br> -Default: `[]` - -Called with [normalized](source/normalize-arguments.js) [request options](#options). Got will make no further changes to the request. This is especially useful when you want to avoid dead sites. Example: - -```js -const got = require('got'); - -got('example.com', { - hooks: { - beforeRedirect: [ - options => { - if (options.hostname === 'deadSite') { - options.hostname = 'fallbackSite'; - } - } - ] - } -}); -``` - -###### hooks.beforeRetry - -Type: `Function[]`<br> -Default: `[]` - -Called with [normalized](source/normalize-arguments.js) [request options](#options), the error and the retry count. Got will make no further changes to the request. This is especially useful when some extra work is required before the next try. Example: - -```js -const got = require('got'); - -got('example.com', { - hooks: { - beforeRetry: [ - (options, error, retryCount) => { - if (error.statusCode === 413) { // Payload too large - options.body = getNewBody(); - } - } - ] - } -}); -``` - -###### hooks.afterResponse - -Type: `Function[]`<br> -Default: `[]` - -Called with [response object](#response) and a retry function. - -Each function should return the response. This is especially useful when you want to refresh an access token. Example: - -```js -const got = require('got'); - -const instance = got.extend({ - hooks: { - afterResponse: [ - (response, retryWithMergedOptions) => { - if (response.statusCode === 401) { // Unauthorized - const updatedOptions = { - headers: { - token: getNewToken() // Refresh the access token - } - }; - - // Save for further requests - instance.defaults.options = got.mergeOptions(instance.defaults.options, updatedOptions); - - // Make a new retry - return retryWithMergedOptions(updatedOptions); - } - - // No changes otherwise - return response; - } - ] - }, - mutableDefaults: true -}); -``` - -###### hooks.beforeError - -Type: `Function[]`<br> -Default: `[]` - -Called with an `Error` instance. The error is passed to the hook right before it's thrown. This is especially useful when you want to have more detailed errors. - -**Note**: Errors thrown while normalizing input options are thrown directly and not part of this hook. - -```js -const got = require('got'); - -got('api.github.com/some-endpoint', { - hooks: { - onError: [ - error => { - const {response} = error; - if (response && response.body) { - error.name = 'GitHubError'; - error.message = `${response.body.message} (${error.statusCode})`; - } - - return error; - } - ] - } -}); -``` - -#### Response - -The response object will typically be a [Node.js HTTP response stream](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_incomingmessage), however, if returned from the cache it will be a [response-like object](https://github.com/lukechilds/responselike) which behaves in the same way. - -##### request - -Type: `Object` - -**Note:** This is not a [http.ClientRequest](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_clientrequest). - -- `gotOptions` - The options that were set on this request. - -##### body - -Type: `string` `Object` *(depending on `options.json`)* - -The result of the request. - -##### url - -Type: `string` - -The request URL or the final URL after redirects. - -##### requestUrl - -Type: `string` - -The original request URL. - -##### timings - -Type: `Object` - -The object contains the following properties: - -- `start` - Time when the request started. -- `socket` - Time when a socket was assigned to the request. -- `lookup` - Time when the DNS lookup finished. -- `connect` - Time when the socket successfully connected. -- `upload` - Time when the request finished uploading. -- `response` - Time when the request fired the `response` event. -- `end` - Time when the response fired the `end` event. -- `error` - Time when the request fired the `error` event. -- `phases` - - `wait` - `timings.socket - timings.start` - - `dns` - `timings.lookup - timings.socket` - - `tcp` - `timings.connect - timings.lookup` - - `request` - `timings.upload - timings.connect` - - `firstByte` - `timings.response - timings.upload` - - `download` - `timings.end - timings.response` - - `total` - `timings.end - timings.start` or `timings.error - timings.start` - -**Note:** The time is a `number` representing the milliseconds elapsed since the UNIX epoch. - -##### fromCache - -Type: `boolean` - -Whether the response was retrieved from the cache. - -##### redirectUrls - -Type: `Array` - -The redirect URLs. - -##### retryCount - -Type: `number` - -The number of times the request was retried. - -#### Streams - -**Note:** Progress events, redirect events and request/response events can also be used with promises. - -#### got.stream(url, [options]) - -Sets `options.stream` to `true`. - -Returns a [duplex stream](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_class_stream_duplex) with additional events: - -##### .on('request', request) - -`request` event to get the request object of the request. - -**Tip:** You can use `request` event to abort request: - -```js -got.stream('github.com') - .on('request', request => setTimeout(() => request.abort(), 50)); -``` - -##### .on('response', response) - -The `response` event to get the response object of the final request. - -##### .on('redirect', response, nextOptions) - -The `redirect` event to get the response object of a redirect. The second argument is options for the next request to the redirect location. - -##### .on('uploadProgress', progress) -##### .on('downloadProgress', progress) - -Progress events for uploading (sending a request) and downloading (receiving a response). The `progress` argument is an object like: - -```js -{ - percent: 0.1, - transferred: 1024, - total: 10240 -} -``` - -If it's not possible to retrieve the body size (can happen when streaming), `total` will be `null`. - -```js -(async () => { - const response = await got('sindresorhus.com') - .on('downloadProgress', progress => { - // Report download progress - }) - .on('uploadProgress', progress => { - // Report upload progress - }); - - console.log(response); -})(); -``` - -##### .on('error', error, body, response) - -The `error` event emitted in case of a protocol error (like `ENOTFOUND` etc.) or status error (4xx or 5xx). The second argument is the body of the server response in case of status error. The third argument is a response object. - -#### got.get(url, [options]) -#### got.post(url, [options]) -#### got.put(url, [options]) -#### got.patch(url, [options]) -#### got.head(url, [options]) -#### got.delete(url, [options]) - -Sets `options.method` to the method name and makes a request. - -### Instances - -#### got.extend([options]) - -Configure a new `got` instance with default `options`. The `options` are merged with the parent instance's `defaults.options` using [`got.mergeOptions`](#gotmergeoptionsparentoptions-newoptions). You can access the resolved options with the `.defaults` property on the instance. - -```js -const client = got.extend({ - baseUrl: 'https://example.com', - headers: { - 'x-unicorn': 'rainbow' - } -}); - -client.get('/demo'); - -/* HTTP Request => - * GET /demo HTTP/1.1 - * Host: example.com - * x-unicorn: rainbow - */ -``` - -```js -(async () => { - const client = got.extend({ - baseUrl: 'httpbin.org', - headers: { - 'x-foo': 'bar' - } - }); - const {headers} = (await client.get('/headers', {json: true})).body; - //=> headers['x-foo'] === 'bar' - - const jsonClient = client.extend({ - json: true, - headers: { - 'x-baz': 'qux' - } - }); - const {headers: headers2} = (await jsonClient.get('/headers')).body; - //=> headers2['x-foo'] === 'bar' - //=> headers2['x-baz'] === 'qux' -})(); -``` - -**Tip:** Need more control over the behavior of Got? Check out the [`got.create()`](advanced-creation.md). - -#### got.mergeOptions(parentOptions, newOptions) - -Extends parent options. Avoid using [object spread](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Spread_syntax#Spread_in_object_literals) as it doesn't work recursively: - -```js -const a = {headers: {cat: 'meow', wolf: ['bark', 'wrrr']}}; -const b = {headers: {cow: 'moo', wolf: ['auuu']}}; - -{...a, ...b} // => {headers: {cow: 'moo', wolf: ['auuu']}} -got.mergeOptions(a, b) // => {headers: {cat: 'meow', cow: 'moo', wolf: ['auuu']}} -``` - -Options are deeply merged to a new object. The value of each key is determined as follows: - -- If the new property is set to `undefined`, it keeps the old one. -- If the parent property is an instance of `URL` and the new value is a `string` or `URL`, a new URL instance is created: [`new URL(new, parent)`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/URL#Syntax). -- If the new property is a plain `Object`: - - If the parent property is a plain `Object` too, both values are merged recursively into a new `Object`. - - Otherwise, only the new value is deeply cloned. -- If the new property is an `Array`, it overwrites the old one with a deep clone of the new property. -- Otherwise, the new value is assigned to the key. - -#### got.defaults - -Type: `Object` - -The default Got options. - -## Errors - -Each error contains `host`, `hostname`, `method`, `path`, `protocol`, `url` and `gotOptions` properties to make debugging easier. - -In Promise mode, the `response` is attached to the error. - -#### got.CacheError - -When a cache method fails, for example, if the database goes down or there's a filesystem error. - -#### got.RequestError - -When a request fails. Contains a `code` property with error class code, like `ECONNREFUSED`. - -#### got.ReadError - -When reading from response stream fails. - -#### got.ParseError - -When `json` option is enabled, server response code is 2xx, and `JSON.parse` fails. Includes `statusCode` and `statusMessage` properties. - -#### got.HTTPError - -When the server response code is not 2xx. Includes `body`, `statusCode`, `statusMessage`, and `redirectUrls` properties. - -#### got.MaxRedirectsError - -When the server redirects you more than ten times. Includes a `statusCode`, `statusMessage`, and `redirectUrls` property which is an array of the URLs Got was redirected to before giving up. - -#### got.UnsupportedProtocolError - -When given an unsupported protocol. - -#### got.CancelError - -When the request is aborted with `.cancel()`. - -#### got.TimeoutError - -When the request is aborted due to a [timeout](#timeout). Includes an `event` property. - -## Aborting the request - -The promise returned by Got has a [`.cancel()`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/p-cancelable) method which when called, aborts the request. - -```js -(async () => { - const request = got(url, options); - - // … - - // In another part of the code - if (something) { - request.cancel(); - } - - // … - - try { - await request; - } catch (error) { - if (request.isCanceled) { // Or `error instanceof got.CancelError` - // Handle cancelation - } - - // Handle other errors - } -})(); -``` - -<a name="cache-adapters"></a> -## Cache - -Got implements [RFC 7234](http://httpwg.org/specs/rfc7234.html) compliant HTTP caching which works out of the box in-memory and is easily pluggable with a wide range of storage adapters. Fresh cache entries are served directly from the cache, and stale cache entries are revalidated with `If-None-Match`/`If-Modified-Since` headers. You can read more about the underlying cache behavior in the [`cacheable-request` documentation](https://github.com/lukechilds/cacheable-request). - -You can use the JavaScript `Map` type as an in-memory cache: - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const map = new Map(); - -(async () => { - let response = await got('sindresorhus.com', {cache: map}); - console.log(response.fromCache); - //=> false - - response = await got('sindresorhus.com', {cache: map}); - console.log(response.fromCache); - //=> true -})(); -``` - -Got uses [Keyv](https://github.com/lukechilds/keyv) internally to support a wide range of storage adapters. For something more scalable you could use an [official Keyv storage adapter](https://github.com/lukechilds/keyv#official-storage-adapters): - -``` -$ npm install @keyv/redis -``` - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const KeyvRedis = require('@keyv/redis'); - -const redis = new KeyvRedis('redis://user:pass@localhost:6379'); - -got('sindresorhus.com', {cache: redis}); -``` - -Got supports anything that follows the Map API, so it's easy to write your own storage adapter or use a third-party solution. - -For example, the following are all valid storage adapters: - -```js -const storageAdapter = new Map(); -// Or -const storageAdapter = require('./my-storage-adapter'); -// Or -const QuickLRU = require('quick-lru'); -const storageAdapter = new QuickLRU({maxSize: 1000}); - -got('sindresorhus.com', {cache: storageAdapter}); -``` - -View the [Keyv docs](https://github.com/lukechilds/keyv) for more information on how to use storage adapters. - - -## Proxies - -You can use the [`tunnel`](https://github.com/koichik/node-tunnel) package with the `agent` option to work with proxies: - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const tunnel = require('tunnel'); - -got('sindresorhus.com', { - agent: tunnel.httpOverHttp({ - proxy: { - host: 'localhost' - } - }) -}); -``` - -Check out [`global-tunnel`](https://github.com/np-maintain/global-tunnel) if you want to configure proxy support for all HTTP/HTTPS traffic in your app. - - -## Cookies - -You can use the [`tough-cookie`](https://github.com/salesforce/tough-cookie) package: - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const {CookieJar} = require('tough-cookie'); - -const cookieJar = new CookieJar(); -cookieJar.setCookie('foo=bar', 'https://www.google.com'); - -got('google.com', {cookieJar}); -``` - - -## Form data - -You can use the [`form-data`](https://github.com/form-data/form-data) package to create POST request with form data: - -```js -const fs = require('fs'); -const got = require('got'); -const FormData = require('form-data'); -const form = new FormData(); - -form.append('my_file', fs.createReadStream('/foo/bar.jpg')); - -got.post('google.com', { - body: form -}); -``` - - -## OAuth - -You can use the [`oauth-1.0a`](https://github.com/ddo/oauth-1.0a) package to create a signed OAuth request: - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const crypto = require('crypto'); -const OAuth = require('oauth-1.0a'); - -const oauth = OAuth({ - consumer: { - key: process.env.CONSUMER_KEY, - secret: process.env.CONSUMER_SECRET - }, - signature_method: 'HMAC-SHA1', - hash_function: (baseString, key) => crypto.createHmac('sha1', key).update(baseString).digest('base64') -}); - -const token = { - key: process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN, - secret: process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET -}; - -const url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/home_timeline.json'; - -got(url, { - headers: oauth.toHeader(oauth.authorize({url, method: 'GET'}, token)), - json: true -}); -``` - - -## Unix Domain Sockets - -Requests can also be sent via [unix domain sockets](http://serverfault.com/questions/124517/whats-the-difference-between-unix-socket-and-tcp-ip-socket). Use the following URL scheme: `PROTOCOL://unix:SOCKET:PATH`. - -- `PROTOCOL` - `http` or `https` *(optional)* -- `SOCKET` - Absolute path to a unix domain socket, for example: `/var/run/docker.sock` -- `PATH` - Request path, for example: `/v2/keys` - -```js -got('http://unix:/var/run/docker.sock:/containers/json'); - -// Or without protocol (HTTP by default) -got('unix:/var/run/docker.sock:/containers/json'); -``` - - -## AWS - -Requests to AWS services need to have their headers signed. This can be accomplished by using the [`aws4`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/aws4) package. This is an example for querying an ["API Gateway"](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/api-reference/signing-requests/) with a signed request. - -```js -const AWS = require('aws-sdk'); -const aws4 = require('aws4'); -const got = require('got'); - -const chain = new AWS.CredentialProviderChain(); - -// Create a Got instance to use relative paths and signed requests -const awsClient = got.extend({ - baseUrl: 'https://<api-id>.execute-api.<api-region>.amazonaws.com/<stage>/', - hooks: { - beforeRequest: [ - async options => { - const credentials = await chain.resolvePromise(); - aws4.sign(options, credentials); - } - ] - } -}); - -const response = await awsClient('endpoint/path', { - // Request-specific options -}); -``` - - -## Testing - -You can test your requests by using the [`nock`](https://github.com/node-nock/nock) package to mock an endpoint: - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const nock = require('nock'); - -nock('https://sindresorhus.com') - .get('/') - .reply(200, 'Hello world!'); - -(async () => { - const response = await got('sindresorhus.com'); - console.log(response.body); - //=> 'Hello world!' -})(); -``` - -If you need real integration tests you can use [`create-test-server`](https://github.com/lukechilds/create-test-server): - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const createTestServer = require('create-test-server'); - -(async () => { - const server = await createTestServer(); - server.get('/', 'Hello world!'); - - const response = await got(server.url); - console.log(response.body); - //=> 'Hello world!' - - await server.close(); -})(); -``` - - -## Tips - -### User Agent - -It's a good idea to set the `'user-agent'` header so the provider can more easily see how their resource is used. By default, it's the URL to this repo. You can omit this header by setting it to `null`. - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const pkg = require('./package.json'); - -got('sindresorhus.com', { - headers: { - 'user-agent': `my-package/${pkg.version} (https://github.com/username/my-package)` - } -}); - -got('sindresorhus.com', { - headers: { - 'user-agent': null - } -}); -``` - -### 304 Responses - -Bear in mind; if you send an `if-modified-since` header and receive a `304 Not Modified` response, the body will be empty. It's your responsibility to cache and retrieve the body contents. - -### Custom endpoints - -Use `got.extend()` to make it nicer to work with REST APIs. Especially if you use the `baseUrl` option. - -**Note:** Not to be confused with [`got.create()`](advanced-creation.md), which has no defaults. - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const pkg = require('./package.json'); - -const custom = got.extend({ - baseUrl: 'example.com', - json: true, - headers: { - 'user-agent': `my-package/${pkg.version} (https://github.com/username/my-package)` - } -}); - -// Use `custom` exactly how you use `got` -(async () => { - const list = await custom('/v1/users/list'); -})(); -``` - -**Tip:** Need to merge some instances into a single one? Check out [`got.mergeInstances()`](advanced-creation.md#merging-instances). - -### Experimental HTTP2 support - -Got provides an experimental support for HTTP2 using the [`http2-wrapper`](https://github.com/szmarczak/http2-wrapper) package: - -```js -const got = require('got'); -const {request} = require('http2-wrapper'); - -const h2got = got.extend({request}); - -(async () => { - const {body} = await h2got('https://nghttp2.org/httpbin/headers'); - console.log(body); -})(); -``` - -## Comparison - -| | `got` | [`request`][r0] | [`node-fetch`][n0] | [`axios`][a0] | [`superagent`][s0] | -|-----------------------|:--------------:|:---------------:|:------------------:|:---------------:|:--------------------:| -| HTTP/2 support | ❔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | ✔\*\* | -| Browser support | ✖ | ✖ | ✔\* | ✔ | ✔ | -| Electron support | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | -| Promise API | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | -| Stream API | ✔ | ✔ | Node.js only | ✖ | ✔ | -| Request cancelation | ✔ | ✖ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | -| RFC compliant caching | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | -| Cookies (out-of-box) | ✔ | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | -| Follows redirects | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | -| Retries on failure | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | ✔ | -| Progress events | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | Browser only | ✔ | -| Handles gzip/deflate | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | -| Advanced timeouts | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | -| Timings | ✔ | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | -| Errors with metadata | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✔ | ✖ | -| JSON mode | ✔ | ✔ | ✖ | ✔ | ✔ | -| Custom defaults | ✔ | ✔ | ✖ | ✔ | ✖ | -| Composable | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✖ | ✔ | -| Hooks | ✔ | ✖ | ✖ | ✔ | ✖ | -| Issues open | [![][gio]][g1] | [![][rio]][r1] | [![][nio]][n1] | [![][aio]][a1] | [![][sio]][s1] | -| Issues closed | [![][gic]][g2] | [![][ric]][r2] | [![][nic]][n2] | [![][aic]][a2] | [![][sic]][s2] | -| Downloads | [![][gd]][g3] | [![][rd]][r3] | [![][nd]][n3] | [![][ad]][a3] | [![][sd]][s3] | -| Coverage | [![][gc]][g4] | [![][rc]][r4] | [![][nc]][n4] | [![][ac]][a4] | unknown | -| Build | [![][gb]][g5] | [![][rb]][r5] | [![][nb]][n5] | [![][ab]][a5] | [![][sb]][s5] | -| Bugs | [![][gbg]][g6] | [![][rbg]][r6] | [![][nbg]][n6] | [![][abg]][a6] | [![][sbg]][s6] | -| Dependents | [![][gdp]][g7] | [![][rdp]][r7] | [![][ndp]][n7] | [![][adp]][a7] | [![][sdp]][s7] | -| Install size | [![][gis]][g8] | [![][ris]][r8] | [![][nis]][n8] | [![][ais]][a8] | [![][sis]][s8] | -
