minipass-fetch

An implementation of window.fetch in Node.js using Minipass streams

This is a fork (or more precisely, a reimplementation) ofnode-fetch. All streams have been replaced with minipass streams.

The goal of this module is to stay in sync with the API presented bynode-fetch, with the exception of the streaming interface provided.

Why

Minipass streams are faster and more deterministic in their timing contract than node-core streams, making them a better fit for many server-side use cases.

API

See node-fetch

Differences from node-fetch (and, by extension, from the WhatWG Fetch specification):

• Returns minipass streams instead of node-core streams.
• Supports the full set of TLS Options that may be provided tohttps.request()when making https requests.
