}

Exposes an API to perform HTTP requests. This should be used instead of the Fetch API in order to benefit from some error-checking, automatic configuration (from the HttpConfiguration module), etc.

Type declaration

  • addEventListener: (<T>(type, listener) => void)
      • <T>(type, listener): void

      • Adds a listener to an event type on fetch operations.

        Type Parameters

        • T extends "error"

        Parameters

        Returns void

  • arrayBuffer: ((url, options?) => Promise<ArrayBuffer>)
      • (url, options?): Promise<ArrayBuffer>

      • Wrapper over fetch to get some ArrayBuffer

        fires error event On Network/HTTP error.

        Parameters

        • url: string

          the URL to fetch

        • Optional options: RequestInit

          fetch options (passed directly to fetch())

        Returns Promise<ArrayBuffer>

        the promise containing the ArrayBuffer

  • blob: ((url, options?) => Promise<Blob>)
      • (url, options?): Promise<Blob>

      • Wrapper over fetch, then returns the blob of the response.

        fires error event On Network/HTTP error.

        Parameters

        The response blob.

  • fetch: ((url, options?) => Promise<Response>)
      • (url, options?): Promise<Response>

      • Wrapper over fetch().

        Use this function instead of calling directly the Fetch API to benefit from automatic configuration from the HttpConfiguration module.

        The response object.

  • getInfo: {}
    • hasEventListener: (<T>(type, listener) => boolean)
        • <T>(type, listener): boolean

        • Checks if listener is added to an event type.

          Type Parameters

          • T extends "error"

          Parameters

          Returns boolean

          true if the listener is added to this event type.

    • json: (<T>(url, options?) => Promise<T>)

          Returns Promise<T>

          the promise containing the JSON

    • removeEventListener: (<T>(type, listener) => void)
        • <T>(type, listener): void
