fetch-request

library1.2.0jsnpmunverified

A lightweight AJAX component wrapper around the Fetch API, providing a simplified interface for HTTP requests with caching, request/response interceptors, and centralized error handling. Current stable version is 1.2.0. Released as needed with no regular cadence. Key differentiators: ESM-only import style, support for common methods (get, post, put, patch, del), and a configurable response handler for centralized error processing. Less mature than alternatives like axios or ky, minimal documentation.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

setConfig

✓ import { setConfig } from 'fetch-request'

✗ const fetchRequest = require('fetch-request')

ESM-only; no default export, named export only. require() will not work.

get

✓ import { get } from 'fetch-request'

Named export for HTTP GET requests.

post

✓ import { post } from 'fetch-request'

Named export for HTTP POST requests.

Configures the instance with global settings and performs a simple GET request.

import { setConfig, get, post, del, patch, put } from 'fetch-request'; setConfig({ apiHost: 'https://api.example.com/', options: { credentials: 'include' }, cache: true, headers: { Accept: 'application/json' }, errHandle(err) { console.error(err); }, reqHandle(url, options) { console.log(url, options); }, respHandle(resp) { if (resp.errorCode === 200) { return resp.data; } else { const error = new Error(resp.errorMessage || 'Unknown error'); error.resp = resp; throw error; } } }); get('user/info', { id: 123 }).then(data => { console.log(data); });

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe library uses application/x-www-form-urlencoded format by default. If you need JSON, you must manually set Content-Type header.

fix

Set content-type header in config or per-request options: headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }

affects: >=1.0.0

breakingOnly supports ESM imports. CommonJS require() will throw an error.

fix

Use import syntax instead of require().

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaResponse handler (respHandle) expects a specific structure: errorCode, data, errorMessage. Non-standard backends may cause unexpected errors.

fix

Ensure backend returns { errorCode, data, errorMessage } or override respHandle to match your API.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: fetch-request__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0__.default is not a function

Using default import instead of named import

fix

Change 'import fetchRequest from 'fetch-request'' to 'import { get, post, setConfig } from 'fetch-request''

ReferenceError: require is not defined in ES module scope, you can use import instead

Using require() in a browser or ESM environment

fix

Replace require('fetch-request') with import { ... } from 'fetch-request'
