GitHub - D-Marc1/far-fetch: Modern Fetch API wrapper for simplicity. (original) (raw)

FarFetch Class

Modern Fetch API wrapper for simplicity.

Install

npm i @websitebeaver/far-fetch

Then include it in the files you want to use it in like so:

import FarFetch from '@websitebeaver/far-fetch';

// If you need to manually handle errors import FarFetch, { FarFetchError } from '@websitebeaver/far-fetch';

Instantiating Class

const ff = new FarFetch();

This is how you'd create a class in its simplest form in FarFetch. You can check out all the options you can use here.

It is recommended to then import the initialized class on every page used.

Why Use FarFetch?

While JavaScript's native Fetch API was an amazing feature added, it introduced a myriad of inconsistencies, which cause you to have to copy and paste StackOverflow questions for simple boilerplate code often times. This is especially the case with uploading files and I find it hard to believe anyone just straight memorizes how to do it. There's so many things to think about. It would have been so much better in a unified experience.

The core philosophy of FarFetch to is keep things as similar as possible to native JavaScript fetch, and merely improve upon it. This way, you're not really learning a completely new API. Instead, the aim of this class is almost to pitch which features I think are missing in Fetch API. The aim of this class isn't to recreate the wheel, but rather, to improve upon Fetch API, with a super thin wrapper. The main advantages over vanilla Fetch are as follows:

  1. Ability to call syntactic sugar methods like ff.get(), ff.post(),ff.put, etc., rather than fetch(url, { method: 'GET' }). FarFetchallows both ways.
  2. Ability to "automatically" throw and handle errors for every call in a unified manner with a global error handler.
  3. Ability to use default request init optionson every call.
  4. Ability to do actions before every request with beforeSend() and afterSend(response) hooks.
  5. Ability to pass data to each call in a consistent manner.
  6. Ability to upload files in a consistent manner.

Passing in Data to Request

Passing in data in Fetch API is exceedingly inconsistent. In this regard, it really took a step backwards from how jQuery implemented passing in data, in my opinion, at least from a usability standpoint. Of course Fetch API's bodyoptions offers more versatility, which is why FarFetch supports using body. However, it really shouldn't be necessary in the majority of use cases. Adding data to a GET and POST request is done in two separate ways in Fetch API.GET requests must use appended URL query parameters, while POST requests generally use a stringified object used as the body property.

GET Request

Fetch API

async getPerson() { const data = { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 };

const queryString = ?${new URLSearchParams(data)};

const response = await fetch(https://example.com/people${queryString}, { method: 'GET', });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.');

return response.json(); }

FarFetch

async getPerson() { const { responseJSON } = await ff.get('https://example.com/people', { data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }, });

return responseJSON; }

POST Request

Fetch API

async addPerson() { const data = { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 };

const response = await fetch(https://example.com/people, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify(data), });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.');

return response.json(); }

FarFetch

async addPerson() { const { responseJSON } = await ff.post('https://example.com/people', { data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }, });

return responseJSON; }

application/x-www-form-urlencoded Request

Fetch API

async addPerson() { const data = { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 };

const response = await fetch(https://example.com/people, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }, body: new URLSearchParams(data), });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.');

return response.json(); }

FarFetch

async addPerson() { const { responseJSON } = await ff.post('https://example.com/people', { headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }, data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }, });

return responseJSON; }

Array or Object as Value for Key for GET Request

Fetch API

async getPerson() { const queryString = ?${new URLSearchParams({ name: 'Bobby Big Boy', hobbies: JSON.stringify(['collecting stamps', 'sports']), location: JSON.stringify({ city: 'Miami', state: 'Florida' }), })};

const response = await fetch(https://example.com/people${queryString}, { method: 'GET', });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.');

return response.json(); }

This can be a bit cumbersome to have to have to JSON.stringify() each value that's an array or object. FarFetch automatically takes care of this.

FarFetch

async getPerson() { const { responseJSON } = await ff.get(https://example.com/people, { data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', hobbies: ['collecting stamps', 'sports'], location: { city: 'Miami', state: 'Florida' }, }, });

return responseJSON; }

Notice how each request is completely predictable in FarFetch and doesn't require you to throw an exception if it's not a status code in the 200-299range (response.ok). Sure, using the native javascript Fetch API isn't horrible anymore in regular Javascript, thanks to features likeURLSearchParams, but it's so much easier to not have to think much when you program. FarFetch's consistent API makes it a breeze to make any sort of request.

Note: The content type header for a POST, PUT and PATCH request will always be application/json, unless application/x-www-form-urlencoded is specified or if it's a file upload.

Passing in URLParams to Request

This is specifically for converting to a URL query string, which differs fromdata, which detects the default type (body or query string).

It's recommended to strictly use the URLParams option in cases where POST,POST and PATCH are used, as the default behavior for passing in data in this case will result in passing in the object to body. You can still pass inURLParams on GET, HEAD and DELETE, but you can't combine it with data. This is for consistency purposes, as it would be confusing as to why you'd be using data and URLParams in the latter ones, as they would achieve the same result in this case. In fact, FarFetch even throws an exception in this senario.

async addPerson() { const { responseJSON } = await ff.post('https://example.com/people', { URLParams: { weight: 75 }, data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }, });

return responseJSON; }

Converted to Fetch API, the following will result in:

const response = await fetch(https://example.com/people?weight=75, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }), });

Uploading Files

Uploading One File

Fetch API

async uploadFile() { const [file] = document.querySelector('#my-file').files;

const data = { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 };

const formData = new FormData();

formData.append('file', file);

Object.keys(data).forEach((key) => { formData.append(key, data[key]); // Add server data to formData });

const response = await fetch('https://example.com/people', { method: 'POST', body: formData, });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.'); }

FarFetch

async uploadFile() { const [file] = document.querySelector('#my-file').files;

await ff.post('https://example.com/people', { data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }, files: file, }); }

Uploading Multiple Files

Fetch API

async uploadFiles() { const files = document.querySelector('#my-files').files;

const data = { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 };

const formData = new FormData();

Object.keys(data).forEach((key) => { formData.append(key, data[key]); // Add server data to formData });

files.forEach((file) => { formData.append('files[]', file); // Add files array to formData });

await fetch('https://example.com/people', { method: 'POST', body: formData, });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.'); }

FarFetch

async uploadFiles() { const files = document.querySelector('#my-files').files;

await ff.post('https://example.com/people', { data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }, files, }); }

Uploading Multiple Files with Distinct File Names

Fetch API

async uploadFiles() { const photos = document.querySelector('#photos').files; const videos = document.querySelector('#videos').files; const documents = document.querySelector('#documents').files;

const data = { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 };

const formData = new FormData();

Object.keys(data).forEach((key) => { formData.append(key, data[key]); // Add server data to formData });

photos.forEach((photo) => { formData.append('photos[]', photo); // Add files array to formData });

videos.forEach((video) => { formData.append('videos[]', video); // Add files array to formData });

documents.forEach((document) => { formData.append('documents[]', document); // Add files array to formData });

await fetch('https://example.com/people', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: formData, });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.'); }

FarFetch

async uploadFiles() { const photos = document.querySelector('#photos').files; const videos = document.querySelector('#videos').files; const documents = document.querySelector('#documents').files;

await ff.post('https://example.com/people', { data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 22 }, files: { photos, videos, documents }, }); }

Look at how much more comprehensible the code becomes with FarFetch. This is practically even readable by a non-programmer, as this reads as: Let's add a 22 year old man named Bobby and upload his following files: photos, videos and documents.

Passing in Fetch API init options

FarFetch accepts all Fetch API init options. It's even possible to pass in the native fetch body, though its use is discouraged in most cases, in favor of, FarFetch's data parameter.

Set Options for Single Request

await ff.get('https://example.com', { headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, cache: 'reload', })

Set Global Options for Every Request

This is really handy for when you know for a fact you will be using the same options on either every request or nearly all. You can accomplish this by declaring these options when you instantiate FarFetch.

const ff = new FarFetch({ headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, cache: 'reload', });

Set Dynamic Options for Every Request

Sometimes you might not want to set a particular option when FarFetch is created. Let's say you're using a login system. You don't want to have the JWTbe evaluated when you instantiate the class, since it won't work properly if a user accesses the page logged out. The header would never reevaluate. This is why FarFetch has allows you to return options you want to use on specific conditions on the global dynamicOptions() function. These options will then get deep merged, with the dynamicOptions() return taking precedence. Obviously passing options into a specific request will take the highest precedence of them all, however.

const ff = new FarFetch({ headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, cache: 'reload', dynamicOptions() { // Use authorization header if token set in localStorage if (localStorage.getItem('token')) { return { headers: { Authorization: Bearer ${localStorage.getItem('token')}, }, }; } }, });

So if you're logged in, your request would have the following options.

{ headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', Authorization: Bearer ${localStorage.getItem('token')}, }, cache: reload, }

Notice how the Content-Type is set to text/plain, rather thanapplication/json. As stated before, this is because the return onbeforeSend() takes precedence on the deep merge.

Getting Response

Retrieving Response Data

FarFetch returns a Response object, so you can use the Bodymethods:arrayBuffer(), blob(), formData(), json() and text(). This is exactly how you'd be doing it in native Fetch as well.

FarFetch supports the vanilla Fetch way of retrieving data, by awaiting for the the Response Body and transforming it to your type.

const response = await ff.get('https://example.com/people');

const responseJSON = await response.json();

return responseJSON;

You can also use FarFetch's handy responseJSON and responseTextproperties for your convenience, instead of having to await for either response.json() orresponse.text(), if the response header type is either application/json ortext/plain, respectively. These are properties that were simply added to theResponse object. What's also nice about this is that it ensures that getting the JSON won't result in an error, due to a mismatch in header, as FarFetchchecks for this already, internally.

const { responseJSON } = await ff.get('https://example.com/people');

return responseJSON;

const { responseText } = await ff.get('https://example.com/people');

return responseText;

Set Base URL

Most applications will likely use the same domain for most or even all requests.FarFetch has a baseURL option you can use when you instantiate the class.

const ff = new FarFetch({ baseURL: 'https://example.com', });

Now request like the following will work.

But what if you want to use a different base URL for just a few requests in your application? FarFetch automatically detects if an absolute path is used, and will override the baseURL.

await ff.get('https://notexample.com/posts');

Before/After Send Hook

You can use the built-in beforeSend() hook to do something before every request and the afterSend(response) one to do something after every request.

const ff = new FarFetch({ beforeSend({ url, fetchAPIOptions, data, URLParams, files, errorMsg, errorMsgNoun, globalBeforeSend, globalAfterSend, defaultOptionsUsed, }) { console.log('do this before every request'); }, afterSend(response) { console.log('do this after every request'); }, });

Turn off Before/After Send Hook on Single Request

You might want to use the beforeSend() or afterSend(response) hook on nearly all requests, but turn it off certain ones.

await ff.get('http://example.com/', { globalBeforeSend: false, globalAfterSend: false, });

Error Handling

Another annoyance of Fetch API is that it doesn't automatically throw an error on a failed request, and forces you to throw your own.

Fetch API

const data = { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 };

try { const response = await fetch('https://example.com/people', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify(data), });

if(!response.ok) throw new Error('Server error.'); } catch { alert('Error adding person'); }

Thankfully you don't need to worry about this with FarFetch. With FarFetch, you can just append the noun to errorMsgNoun and it'll append to a default template, dependent on the CRUD type.

FarFetch

try { await ff.post('https://example.com/person', { data: { name: 'Bobby Big Boy', gender: 'Male', age: 5 }, errorMsgNoun: 'person' }); } catch {}

Your global handler would then handle it as such:

const ff = new FarFetch({ errorHandler({ error, userMessage, response }) { if(response.status === 401) { // Unauthorized router.push('/login'); // Go to login page if logged out }

// Error message will be presented to the user in an alert
alert(userMessage);

}, });

If an error occurs, this will result in an alert with the following message:

Error adding person.

You might be wondering how this works behind the scenes. Here's the basic template of what going into the userMessage parameter property.

let action = '';

if (method === 'GET' || method === 'HEAD') { action = 'fetching'; } else if (method === 'POST') { action = 'adding'; } else if (method === 'PUT' || method === 'PATCH') { action = 'updating'; } else if (method === 'DELETE') { action = 'deleting'; }

const userMessage = Error <span class="katex"><span class="katex-mathml"><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><semantics><mrow><mi>a</mi><mi>c</mi><mi>t</mi><mi>i</mi><mi>o</mi><mi>n</mi></mrow><annotation encoding="application/x-tex">{action} </annotation></semantics></math></span><span class="katex-html" aria-hidden="true"><span class="base"><span class="strut" style="height:0.6595em;"></span><span class="mord"><span class="mord mathnormal">a</span><span class="mord mathnormal">c</span><span class="mord mathnormal">t</span><span class="mord mathnormal">i</span><span class="mord mathnormal">o</span><span class="mord mathnormal">n</span></span></span></span></span>{errorMsgNoun};

Modifying the Default Error Message Template

You can even override this default template with the errorMsgTemplateproperty, which accepts function.

const ff = new FarFetch({ errorMsgTemplate: ({ method, errorMsgNoun }) => { let action = '';

if (method === 'GET' || method === 'HEAD') {
  action = 'retrieving';
} else if (method === 'POST') {
  action = 'posting';
} else if (method === 'PUT' || method === 'PATCH') {
  action = 'changing';
} else if (method === 'DELETE') {
  action = 'removing';
}

return `Error <span class="katex"><span class="katex-mathml"><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><semantics><mrow><mi>a</mi><mi>c</mi><mi>t</mi><mi>i</mi><mi>o</mi><mi>n</mi></mrow><annotation encoding="application/x-tex">{action} </annotation></semantics></math></span><span class="katex-html" aria-hidden="true"><span class="base"><span class="strut" style="height:0.6595em;"></span><span class="mord"><span class="mord mathnormal">a</span><span class="mord mathnormal">c</span><span class="mord mathnormal">t</span><span class="mord mathnormal">i</span><span class="mord mathnormal">o</span><span class="mord mathnormal">n</span></span></span></span></span>{errorMsgNoun}.`;

}, });

In case you couldn't tell by this contrived example, I merely used synonyms of the default template. However, this allows flexibility to tailor to custom requirements.

Overriding Default Error Message for Single Request

Sometimes you might just want to change the message for a unique request. You can accomplish this via the errorMsg property.

await ff.get('https://example.com/users', { errorMsg: 'Oh no! We are having trouble retrieving your friends!', });

Catching Exceptions Manually

Using the global errorHandler(), along with errorMsgNoun or errorMsgshould work fine in most cases, but sometimes you might need to handle multiple cases. You can easily achieve this by simply omitting both errorMsgNoun anderrorMsg. FarFetch will then know not to run the global error handler. You can then can the errors in a try/catch. Take a register account example for instance.

async register(type) { try { const response = await ff.post(http://127.0.0.1:3333/${type}, { data: { email: this.email, password: this.password, }, });

const responseData = await response.json();

localStorage.setItem('token', responseData.token);

this.$router.push('/');

} catch (e) { if (e instanceof FarFetchError) { let userMessage = '';

  const { response, error } = e;

  if (response.status === 409) { // Conflict
    userMessage = 'Email is already in system';
  } else if (response.status === 400) { // Validation failed
    const { field, validationMsg } = response.responseJSON;

    userMessage = `${field} is ${validationMsg}`;
  }
  
  ff.errorHandler({ error, response, userMessage });
} else {
  userMessage = e.message;

  ff.errorHandler({ error, userMessage });
}

} }

Each case his handled individually. You can then add the string to the global error handler you created on instantiation, withff.errorHandler({ error, response, userMessage }).

Empty Try/Catch

It is required to use a try/catch on every request in FarFetch, in order to stop execution on an error. This isn't because there's anything unique about how this library does anything; the same recommendation would apply to any async request in JavaScript that relies on sequential steps occurring on success. FarFetch specifically throws an error to stop the further execution of code. Perhaps an example would help illustrate my point better.

Consider how a simple register account might work, like in the previous example. You make a request and if there aren't any issues, like email already taken or validation issues, you set the localStorage to the JWT and then route to the logged in page. The problem is that if you an exception isn't thrown, there's nothing to stop the script's execution, and it'll always set localStorageand try to route to the logged in route, even if the request failed.
