library0.4.1jsnpmunverified

A minimal Node.js base class for building REST API clients quickly. Version 0.4.1 requires Node >= 0.6.0. It provides a simple foundation with no built-in HTTP client, leaving the developer to implement request logic. Unmaintained since 2012, it lacks modern features like promises, ESM, and TypeScript support. Not recommended for new projects; alternatives like axios, got, or node-fetch are more robust.

Verified usage

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

Package uses CommonJS; no ESM exports.

var Rest = require('rest.node');

Direct instantiation of the base class.

var rest = new Rest();

No promise support; uses error-first callbacks.

rest.get('/path', callback);

Creates a REST client and demonstrates GET and POST requests with callbacks.

var Rest = require('rest.node'); var rest = new Rest(); rest.get('https://api.example.com/resource', function(err, data) { if (err) console.error(err); else console.log(data); }); rest.post('https://api.example.com/resource', { key: 'value' }, function(err, data) { if (err) console.error(err); else console.log(data); });
