@js-bits/fetch

Cross-environment (nodejs/web) fetch APi

This package exports window.fetch object in a browser and node-fetch module in a Node.js environment. Which is helpful when you develop a package compatible with both environments and use fetch for HTTP requests. Allows to avoid conditional imports.

Also exports AbortController (abort-controller module for Node.js) for both environments.

Installation

Install with npm:

npm install @js-bits/fetch

Install with yarn:

yarn add @js-bits/fetch

Import where you need it:

import { fetch, AbortController } from '@js-bits/fetch';

or require for CommonJS:

const { fetch, AbortController } = require('@js-bits/fetch');

How to use

fetch('http://example.com/movies.json')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data));

Notes

• The package versions are aligned with node-fetch versions.
• v2 of this package supports v2 of node-fetch.
• Minimal size (bytes) in a browser since Fetch API is natively supported. Does not include any polyfills, which means that Internet Explorer is not supported.
