Here's how you can use JS-HTTP in your JavaScript code:
// Import the JS-HTTP library
const JSHTTP = require('https-node.js);
// Make a GET request
JSHTTP.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1')
.then(response => {
console.log('GET Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('GET Error:', error);
});
// Make a POST request
const data = { userId: 1, id: 101, title: 'foo', body: 'bar' };
JSHTTP.post('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts', data)
.then(response => {
console.log('POST Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('POST Error:', error);
});
// Make a PUT request
const putData = { userId: 1, id: 1, title: 'updated title', body: 'updated body' };
JSHTTP.put('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1', putData)
.then(response => {
console.log('PUT Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('PUT Error:', error);
});
// Make a DELETE request
JSHTTP.delete('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/101')
.then(response => {
console.log('DELETE Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('DELETE Error:', error);
});
// Make an OPTIONS request
const optionsData = { someOption: 'value' };
JSHTTP.options('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/some-resource', optionsData)
.then(response => {
console.log('OPTIONS Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('OPTIONS Error:', error);
});
// Make a HEAD request
const headData = { someHeader: 'value' };
JSHTTP.head('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/some-resource', headData)
.then(response => {
console.log('HEAD Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('HEAD Error:', error);
});
// Make a CONNECT request
const connectData = { someData: 'value' };
JSHTTP.connect('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/some-resource', connectData)
.then(response => {
console.log('CONNECT Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('CONNECT Error:', error);
});
// Make a TRACE request
const traceData = { someData: 'value' };
JSHTTP.trace('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/some
-resource', traceData)
.then(response => {
console.log('TRACE Response:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('TRACE Error:', error);
});
// Make a PATCH request
const patchData = { someData: 'value' };
JSHTTP.patch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/some-resource', patchData)
