@azure/ms-rest-js
Advanced tools
Package description
@azure/ms-rest-js is a package provided by Microsoft Azure that offers a set of tools for making HTTP requests and handling responses, particularly for Azure services. It includes features for authentication, serialization, and deserialization of data, and provides a foundation for building SDKs for Azure services.
HTTP Client
The HTTP Client feature allows you to send HTTP requests and handle responses. This is useful for interacting with RESTful APIs.
const { HttpClient } = require('@azure/ms-rest-js');
const client = new HttpClient();
client.sendRequest({ url: 'https://example.com', method: 'GET' }).then(response => {
console.log(response.bodyAsText);
});
Authentication
The Authentication feature provides support for various authentication mechanisms, such as token-based authentication, which is essential for securely accessing Azure services.
const { TokenCredentials } = require('@azure/ms-rest-js');
const credentials = new TokenCredentials('your-access-token');
const client = new HttpClient(credentials);
client.sendRequest({ url: 'https://example.com', method: 'GET' }).then(response => {
console.log(response.bodyAsText);
});
Serialization and Deserialization
The Serialization and Deserialization feature allows you to convert JavaScript objects to and from JSON, which is useful for sending and receiving data in a structured format.
const { Serializer } = require('@azure/ms-rest-js');
const serializer = new Serializer();
const model = { name: 'example', age: 30 };
const serializedModel = serializer.serialize({ type: { name: 'Composite', className: 'Model', modelProperties: { name: { serializedName: 'name', type: { name: 'String' } }, age: { serializedName: 'age', type: { name: 'Number' } } } } }, model);
console.log(serializedModel);
Axios is a popular HTTP client for making requests to APIs. It is similar to the HTTP Client feature of @azure/ms-rest-js but does not include built-in support for Azure-specific authentication or serialization.
Request is another HTTP client library for Node.js. It provides a simple way to make HTTP requests but lacks the Azure-specific features such as authentication and serialization found in @azure/ms-rest-js.
Node-fetch is a lightweight module that brings window.fetch to Node.js. It is similar to the HTTP Client feature of @azure/ms-rest-js but does not include Azure-specific functionalities like authentication and serialization.
