# node-miniget
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A small http(s) GET library with redirects, retries, reconnects, concatenating or streaming, and no dependencies. This keeps filesize small for potential browser use.

# Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Concatenates a response
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
const miniget = require('miniget');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
miniget('http://mywebsite.com', (err, body) => {
|
||
|
|
console.log('webpage contents: ', body);
|
||
|
|
}));
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Request can be streamed right away
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
miniget('http://api.mywebsite.com/v1/messages.json')
|
||
|
|
.pipe(someWritableStream());
|
||
|
|
```

# API
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### miniget(url, [options], [callback(err, body)])
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Makes a GET request. `options` can have any properties from the [`http.request()` function](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_http_request_options_callback), in addition to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `maxRedirects` - Default is `2`.
|
||
|
|
* `maxRetries` - Number of times to retry the request if there is a 500 or connection error. Default is `1`.
|
||
|
|
* `maxReconnects` - During a big download, if there is a disconnect, miniget can try to reconnect and continue the download where it left off. Defaults to `0`.
|
||
|
|
* `backoff` - An object with `inc` and `max` used to calculate how long to wait to retry a request. Defaults to `{ inc: 100, max: 10000 }`.
|
||
|
|
* `highWaterMark` - Amount of data to buffer when in stream mode.
|
||
|
|
* `transform` - Use this to add additional features. Called with the object that `http.get()` or `https.get()` would be called with. Must return a transformed object.
|
||
|
|
* `acceptEncoding` - An object with encoding name as the key, and the value as a function that returns a decoding stream.
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
acceptEncoding: { gzip: () => require('zlip').createGunzip(stream) }
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
Given encodings will be added to the `Accept-Encoding` header, and the response will be decoded if the server responds with encoded content.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If `callback` is given, will concatenate the response, and call `callback` with a possible error, and the response body.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Miniget returns a readable stream if `callback` is not given, errors will then be emitted on the stream. Returned stream also contains an `.abort()` method, and can emit the following events.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Event: redirect
|
||
|
|
* `string` - URL redirected to.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Emitted when the request was redirected with a redirection status code.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Event: retry
|
||
|
|
* `number` - Number of retry.
|
||
|
|
* `Error` - Request or status code error.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Emitted when the request fails, or the response has a status code >= 500.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Event: reconnect
|
||
|
|
* `number` - Number of reconnect.
|
||
|
|
* `Error` - Request or response error.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Emitted when the request or response fails after download has started.
