A better fetch API. Works on node, browser, and workers.
## 🚀 Quick Start
Install:
```bash
# npm
npm i ofetch
# yarn
yarn add ofetch
```
Import:
```js
// ESM / Typescript
import { ofetch } from "ofetch";
// CommonJS
const { ofetch } = require("ofetch");
```
## ✔️ Works with Node.js
We use [conditional exports](https://nodejs.org/api/packages.html#packages_conditional_exports) to detect Node.js
and automatically use [unjs/node-fetch-native](https://github.com/unjs/node-fetch-native). If `globalThis.fetch` is available, will be used instead. To leverage Node.js 17.5.0 experimental native fetch API use [`--experimental-fetch` flag](https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v17.x/docs/api/cli.html#--experimental-fetch).
### `keepAlive` support
By setting the `FETCH_KEEP_ALIVE` environment variable to `true`, an HTTP/HTTPS agent will be registered that keeps sockets around even when there are no outstanding requests, so they can be used for future requests without having to re-establish a TCP connection.
**Note:** This option can potentially introduce memory leaks. Please check [node-fetch/node-fetch#1325](https://github.com/node-fetch/node-fetch/pull/1325).
## ✔️ Parsing Response
`ofetch` will smartly parse JSON and native values using [destr](https://github.com/unjs/destr), falling back to the text if it fails to parse.
```js
const { users } = await ofetch("/api/users");
```
For binary content types, `ofetch` will instead return a `Blob` object.
You can optionally provide a different parser than `destr`, or specify `blob`, `arrayBuffer`, or `text` to force parsing the body with the respective `FetchResponse` method.
```js
// Use JSON.parse
await ofetch("/movie?lang=en", { parseResponse: JSON.parse });
// Return text as is
await ofetch("/movie?lang=en", { parseResponse: (txt) => txt });
// Get the blob version of the response
await ofetch("/api/generate-image", { responseType: "blob" });
```
## ✔️ JSON Body
If an object or a class with a `.toJSON()` method is passed to the `body` option, `ofetch` automatically stringifies it.
`ofetch` utilizes `JSON.stringify()` to convert the passed object. Classes without a `.toJSON()` method have to be converted into a string value in advance before being passed to the `body` option.
For `PUT`, `PATCH`, and `POST` request methods, when a string or object body is set, `ofetch` adds the default `content-type: "application/json"` and `accept: "application/json"` headers (which you can always override).
Additionally, `ofetch` supports binary responses with `Buffer`, `ReadableStream`, `Stream`, and [compatible body types](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/fetch#body). ofetch will automatically set the `duplex: "half"` option for streaming support!
**Example:**
```js
const { users } = await ofetch("/api/users", {
method: "POST",
body: { some: "json" },
});
```
## ✔️ Handling Errors
`ofetch` Automatically throws errors when `response.ok` is `false` with a friendly error message and compact stack (hiding internals).
A parsed error body is available with `error.data`. You may also use `FetchError` type.
```ts
await ofetch("https://google.com/404");
// FetchError: [GET] "https://google/404": 404 Not Found
// at async main (/project/playground.ts:4:3)
```
To catch error response:
```ts
await ofetch("/url").catch((err) => err.data);
```
To bypass status error catching you can set `ignoreResponseError` option:
```ts
await ofetch("/url", { ignoreResponseError: true });
```
## ✔️ Auto Retry
`ofetch` Automatically retries the request if an error happens and if the response status code is included in `retryStatusCodes` list:
**Retry status codes:**
- `408` - Request Timeout
- `409` - Conflict
- `425` - Too Early
- `429` - Too Many Requests
- `500` - Internal Server Error
- `502` - Bad Gateway
- `503` - Service Unavailable
- `504` - Gateway Timeout
You can specify the amount of retry and delay between them using `retry` and `retryDelay` options and also pass a custom array of codes using `retryStatusCodes` option.
The default for `retry` is `1` retry, except for `POST`, `PUT`, `PATCH`, and `DELETE` methods where `ofetch` does not retry by default to avoid introducing side effects. If you set a custom value for `retry` it will **always retry** for all requests.
The default for `retryDelay` is `0` ms.
```ts
await ofetch("http://google.com/404", {
retry: 3,
retryDelay: 500, // ms
});
```
## ✔️ Timeout
You can specify `timeout` in milliseconds to automatically abort a request after a timeout (default is disabled).
```ts
await ofetch("http://google.com/404", {
timeout: 3000, // Timeout after 3 seconds
});
```
## ✔️ Type Friendly
The response can be type assisted:
```ts
const article = await ofetch<Article>(`/api/article/${id}`);
// Auto complete working with article.id
```
## ✔️ Adding `baseURL`
By using `baseURL` option, `ofetch` prepends it for trailing/leading slashes and query search params for baseURL using [ufo](https://github.com/unjs/ufo):
```js
await ofetch("/config", { baseURL });
```
## ✔️ Adding Query Search Params
By using `query` option (or `params` as alias), `ofetch` adds query search params to the URL by preserving the query in the request itself using [ufo](https://github.com/unjs/ufo):
```js
await ofetch("/movie?lang=en", { query: { id: 123 } });
```
## ✔️ Interceptors
Providing async interceptors to hook into lifecycle events of `ofetch` call is possible.
You might want to use `ofetch.create` to set shared interceptors.
### `onRequest({ request, options })`
`onRequest` is called as soon as `ofetch` is called, allowing you to modify options or do simple logging.
```js
await ofetch("/api", {
async onRequest({ request, options }) {
// Log request
console.log("[fetch request]", request, options);
// Add `?t=1640125211170` to query search params
options.query = options.query || {};
options.query.t = new Date();
},
});
```
### `onRequestError({ request, options, error })`
`onRequestError` will be called when the fetch request fails.
```js
await ofetch("/api", {
async onRequestError({ request, options, error }) {
// Log error
console.log("[fetch request error]", request, error);
},
});
```
### `onResponse({ request, options, response })`
`onResponse` will be called after `fetch` call and parsing body.
```js
await ofetch("/api", {
async onResponse({ request, response, options }) {
// Log response
console.log("[fetch response]", request, response.status, response.body);
},
});
```
### `onResponseError({ request, options, response })`
`onResponseError` is the same as `onResponse` but will be called when fetch happens but `response.ok` is not `true`.
```js
await ofetch("/api", {
async onResponseError({ request, response, options }) {
// Log error
console.log(
"[fetch response error]",
request,
response.status,
response.body
);
},
});
```
## ✔️ Create fetch with default options
This utility is useful if you need to use common options across several fetch calls.
**Note:** Defaults will be cloned at one level and inherited. Be careful about nested options like `headers`.
```js
const apiFetch = ofetch.create({ baseURL: "/api" });
apiFetch("/test"); // Same as ofetch('/test', { baseURL: '/api' })
```
## 💡 Adding headers
By using `headers` option, `ofetch` adds extra headers in addition to the request default headers:
```js
await ofetch("/movies", {
headers: {
Accept: "application/json",
"Cache-Control": "no-cache",
},
});
```
## 💡 Adding HTTP(S) Agent
If you need use HTTP(S) Agent, can add `agent` option with `https-proxy-agent` (for Node.js only):
```js
import { HttpsProxyAgent } from "https-proxy-agent";
await ofetch("/api", {
agent: new HttpsProxyAgent("http://example.com"),
});
```
## 🍣 Access to Raw Response
If you need to access raw response (for headers, etc), can use `ofetch.raw`:
```js
const response = await ofetch.raw("/sushi");
// response._data
// response.headers
// ...
```
## Native fetch
As a shortcut, you can use `ofetch.native` that provides native `fetch` API
```js
const json = await ofetch.native("/sushi").then((r) => r.json());
```
## 📦 Bundler Notes
- All targets are exported with Module and CommonJS format and named exports
- No export is transpiled for the sake of modern syntax
- You probably need to transpile `ofetch`, `destr`, and `ufo` packages with Babel for ES5 support
- You need to polyfill `fetch` global for supporting legacy browsers like using [unfetch](https://github.com/developit/unfetch)
## ❓ FAQ
**Why export is called `ofetch` instead of `fetch`?**
Using the same name of `fetch` can be confusing since API is different but still, it is a fetch so using the closest possible alternative. You can, however, import `{ fetch }` from `ofetch` which is auto-polyfill for Node.js and using native otherwise.
**Why not have default export?**
Default exports are always risky to be mixed with CommonJS exports.
This also guarantees we can introduce more utils without breaking the package and also encourage using `ofetch` name.
**Why not transpiled?**
By transpiling libraries, we push the web backward with legacy code which is unneeded for most of the users.
If you need to support legacy users, you can optionally transpile the library in your build pipeline.
