Example

Performing a GET request

import request from 'umi-request';

request
  .get('/api/v1/xxx?id=1')
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

// use options.params
request
  .get('/api/v1/xxx', {
    params: {
      id: 1,
    },
  })
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

Performing a POST request

request
  .post('/api/v1/user', {
    data: {
      name: 'Mike',
    },
  })
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

umi-request API

Requests can be made by passing relevant options to umi-request

umi-request(url[, options])

import request from 'umi-request';

request('/api/v1/xxx', {
  method: 'get',
  params: { id: 1 },
})
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

request('/api/v1/user', {
  method: 'post',
  data: {
    name: 'Mike',
  },
})
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

Request method aliases

For convenience umi-request have been provided for all supported methods.

request.get(url[, options])

request.post(url[, options])

request.delete(url[, options])

request.put(url[, options])

request.patch(url[, options])

request.head(url[, options])

request.options(url[, options])

Creating an instance

You can use extend({[options]}) to create a new instance of umi-request.

extend([options])

import { extend } from 'umi-request';

const request = extend({
  prefix: '/api/v1',
  timeout: 1000,
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data',
  },
});

request
  .get('/user')
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

Create an instance of umi-request in NodeJS enviroment

const umi = require('umi-request');
const extendRequest = umi.extend({ timeout: 10000 });

extendRequest('/api/user')
  .then(res => {
    console.log(res);
  })
  .catch(err => {
    console.log(err);
  });

The available instance methods are list below. The specified options will be merge with the instance options.

request.get(url[, options])

request.post(url[, options])

request.delete(url[, options])

request.put(url[, options])

request.patch(url[, options])

request.head(url[, options])

request.options(url[, options])

  // If the request takes longer than 'timeout', request will be aborted and throw RequestError.
  timeout: 1000,

  // ’prefix‘ used to set URL's prefix
  // ( e.g. request('/user/save', { prefix: '/api/v1' }) => request('/api/v1/user/save') )
  prefix: '',

  // ’suffix‘ used to set URL's suffix
  // ( e.g. request('/api/v1/user/save', { suffix: '.json'}) => request('/api/v1/user/save.json') )
  suffix: '',

  // 'credentials' indicates whether the user agent should send cookies from the other domain in the case of cross-origin requests.
  // omit: Never send or receive cookies.
  // same-origin: Send user credentials (cookies, basic http auth, etc..) if the URL is on the same origin as the calling script. This is the default value.
  // include: Always send user credentials (cookies, basic http auth, etc..), even for cross-origin calls.
  credentials: 'same-origin', // default

  // ’useCache‘ The GET request would be cache in ttl milliseconds when 'useCache' is true.

  useCache: false, // default

  // 'ttl' cache duration（milliseconds），0 is infinity
  ttl: 60000,

  // 'maxCache' are the max number of requests to be cached, 0 means infinity.
  maxCache: 0,

  // According to http protocal, request of GET used to get data from server, it's necessary to cache response data when server data update not frequently. We provide 'validateCache'
  // for some cases that need to cache data with other method reqeust.
  validateCache: (url, options) => { return options.method.toLowerCase() === 'get' },


  // 'requestType' umi-request will add headers and body according to the 'requestType' when the type of data is object or array.
  // 1. requestType === 'json' :(default )
  // options.headers = {
  //   Accept: 'application/json',
  //   'Content-Type': 'application/json;charset=UTF-8',
  //   ...options.headers,

  // The default value is 'json', would processing response by Response.text().then( d => JSON.parse(d) )
  // Other responseType (text, blob, arrayBuffer, formData), would processing response by Response[responseType]()
  responseType: 'json', // default

  // 'throwErrIfParseFail': whether throw error or not when JSON parse data fail and responseType is 'json'.
  throwErrIfParseFail: false, // default

  getResponse: false,// default

  // 'errorHandler' error handle entry.
  errorHandler: function(error) { /* 异常处理 */ },

  // 'cancelToken' the token of cancel request.
  cancelToken: null,
}

Extend Options

Sometimes we need to update options after extend a request instance, umi-request provide extendOptions for users to update options:

const request = extend({ timeout: 1000, params: { a: '1' } });
// default options is: { timeout: 1000, params: { a: '1' }}

request.extendOptions({ timeout: 3000, params: { b: '2' } });
// after extendOptions: { timeout: 3000, params: { a: '1', b: '2' }}

Response Schema

The response for a request contains the following information.

{
  // 'data' is the response that was provided by the server
  data: {},

  // 'status' is the HTTP status code from the server response
  status: 200,

  // 'statusText' is the HTTP status message from the server response
  statusText: 'OK',

  // 'headers' the headers that the server responded with
  // All header names are lower cased
  headers: {},
}

When options.getResponse === false, the response schema would be 'data'

request.get('/api/v1/xxx', { getResponse: false }).then(function(data) {
  console.log(data);
});

When options.getResponse === true ，the response schema would be { data, response }

request.get('/api/v1/xxx', { getResponse: true }).then(function({ data, response }) {
  console.log(data);
  console.log(response.status);
  console.log(response.statusText);
  console.log(response.headers);
});

You can get Response from error object in errorHandler or request.catch.

Error handling

import request, { extend } from 'umi-request';

const errorHandler = function(error) {
  const codeMap = {
    '021': 'An error has occurred',
    '022': 'It’s a big mistake,',
    // ....
  };
  if (error.response) {
    // The request was made and the server responded with a status code
    // that falls out of the range of 2xx
    console.log(error.response.status);
    console.log(error.response.headers);
    console.log(error.data);
    console.log(error.request);
    console.log(codeMap[error.data.status]);
  } else {
    // The request was made but no response was received or error occurs when setting up the request.
    console.log(error.message);
  }

  throw error; // If throw. The error will continue to be thrown.

  // return {some: 'data'}; If return, return the value as a return. If you don't write it is equivalent to return undefined, you can judge whether the response has a value when processing the result.
  // return {some: 'data'};
};

// 1. Unified processing
const extendRequest = extend({ errorHandler });

// 2. Separate special treatment
// If unified processing is configured, but an api needs special handling. When requested, the errorHandler is passed as a parameter.
request('/api/v1/xxx', { errorHandler });

// 3. not configure errorHandler, the response will be directly treated as promise, and it will be caught.
request('/api/v1/xxx')
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    return errorHandler(error);
  });

Middleware

Expressive HTTP middleware framework for node.js. For development to enhance before and after request. Support create instance, global, core middlewares.

Instance Middleware (default) request.use(fn) Different instances's instance middleware are independence. Global Middleware request.use(fn, { global: true }) Different instances share global middlewares. Core Middleware request.use(fn, { core: true }) Used to expand request core.

request.use(fn[, options])

params

fn params

ctx(Object)：context, content request and response
next(Function)：function to call the next middleware

options params

global(boolean): whether global， higher priority than core
core(boolean): whether core

example

same type of middlewares

import request, { extend } from 'umi-request';
request.use(async (ctx, next) => {
  console.log('a1');
  await next();
  console.log('a2');
});
request.use(async (ctx, next) => {
  console.log('b1');
  await next();
  console.log('b2');
});

const data = await request('/api/v1/a');

order of middlewares be called:

a1 -> b1 -> response -> b2 -> a2

Different type of middlewares

request.use(async (ctx, next) => {
  console.log('instanceA1');
  await next();
  console.log('instanceA2');
});
request.use(async (ctx, next) => {
  console.log('instanceB1');
  await next();
  console.log('instanceB2');
});
request.use(
  async (ctx, next) => {
    console.log('globalA1');
    await next();
    console.log('globalA2');
  },
  { global: true }
);
request.use(
  async (ctx, next) => {
    console.log('coreA1');
    await next();
    console.log('coreA2');
  },
  { core: true }
);

order of middlewares be called:

instanceA1 -> instanceB1 -> globalA1 -> coreA1 -> coreA2 -> globalA2 -> instanceB2 -> instanceA2

Enhance request

request.use(async (ctx, next) => {
  const { req } = ctx;
  const { url, options } = req;

  if (url.indexOf('/api') !== 0) {
    ctx.req.url = `/api/v1/${url}`;
  }
  ctx.req.options = {
    ...options,
    foo: 'foo',
  };

  await next();

  const { res } = ctx;
  const { success = false } = res;
  if (!success) {
    // ...
  }
});

Use core middleware to expand request core.

request.use(
  async (ctx, next) => {
    const { req } = ctx;
    const { url, options } = req;
    const { __umiRequestCoreType__ = 'normal' } = options;

    // __umiRequestCoreType__ use to identificat request core
    // when value is 'normal' , use umi-request 's fetch request core
    if (__umiRequestCoreType__ === 'normal') {
      await next();
      return;
    }

    // when value is not normal, use your request func.
    const response = getResponseByOtherWay();

    ctx.res = response;

    await next();
    return;
  },
  { core: true }
);

request('/api/v1/rpc', {
  __umiRequestCoreType__: 'rpc',
  parseResponse: false,
})
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

Interceptor

You can intercept requests or responses before they are handled by then or catch.

global Interceptor

// request interceptor, change url or options.
request.interceptors.request.use((url, options) => {
  return {
    url: `${url}&interceptors=yes`,
    options: { ...options, interceptors: true },
  };
});

// Same as the last one
request.interceptors.request.use(
  (url, options) => {
    return {
      url: `${url}&interceptors=yes`,
      options: { ...options, interceptors: true },
    };
  },
  { global: true }
);

// response interceptor, chagne response
request.interceptors.response.use((response, options) => {
  response.headers.append('interceptors', 'yes yo');
  return response;
});

// handling error in response interceptor
request.interceptors.response.use(response => {
  const codeMaps = {
    502: '网关错误。',
    503: '服务不可用，服务器暂时过载或维护。',
    504: '网关超时。',
  };
  message.error(codeMaps[response.status]);
  return response;
});

// clone response in response interceptor
request.interceptors.response.use(async response => {
  const data = await response.clone().json();
  if (data && data.NOT_LOGIN) {
    location.href = '登录url';
  }
  return response;
});

instance Interceptor

// Global interceptors are used `request` instance method directly
request.interceptors.request.use(
  (url, options) => {
    return {
      url: `${url}&interceptors=yes`,
      options: { ...options, interceptors: true },
    };
  },
  { global: false }
); // second paramet defaults { global: true }

function createClient(baseUrl) {
  const request = extend({
    prefix: baseUrl,
  });
  return request;
}

const clientA = createClient('/api');
const clientB = createClient('/api');
// Independent instance Interceptor
clientA.interceptors.request.use(
  (url, options) => {
    return {
      url: `${url}&interceptors=clientA`,
      options,
    };
  },
  { global: false }
);

clientB.interceptors.request.use(
  (url, options) => {
    return {
      url: `${url}&interceptors=clientB`,
      options,
    };
  },
  { global: false }
);

Cancel request

Use AbortController

Base on AbortController that allows you to abort one or more Web requests as and when desired.

// polyfill abort controller if needed
import 'yet-another-abortcontroller-polyfill'
import Request from 'umi-request';

const controller = new AbortController(); // create a controller
const { signal } = controller; // grab a reference to its associated AbortSignal object using the AbortController.signal property

signal.addEventListener('abort', () => {
  console.log('aborted!');
});

Request('/api/response_after_1_sec', {
  signal, // pass in the AbortSignal as an option inside the request's options object (see {signal}, below). This associates the signal and controller with the fetch request and allows us to abort it by calling AbortController.abort(),
});

// 取消请求
setTimeout(() => {
  controller.abort(); // Aborts a DOM request before it has completed. This is able to abort fetch requests, consumption of any response Body, and streams.
}, 100);

Use Cancel Token

Cancel Token still work, but we don’t recommend using them in the new code.

You can cancel a request using a cancel token.

import Request from 'umi-request';

const CancelToken = Request.CancelToken;
const { token, cancel } = CancelToken.source();

Request.get('/api/cancel', {
  cancelToken: token,
}).catch(function(thrown) {
  if (Request.isCancel(thrown)) {
    console.log('Request canceled', thrown.message);
  } else {
    // handle error
  }
});

Request.post(
  '/api/cancel',
  {
    name: 'hello world',
  },
  {
    cancelToken: token,
  }
);

// cancel request (the message parameter is optional)
cancel('Operation canceled by the user.');

You can also create a cancel token by passing an executor function to the CancelToken constructor:

import Request from 'umi-request';

const CancelToken = Request.CancelToken;
let cancel;

Request.get('/api/cancel', {
  cancelToken: new CancelToken(function executor(c) {
    cancel = c;
  }),
});

// cancel request
cancel();

Cases

How to get Response Headers

Use Headers.get() (more detail see MDN 文档)

request('/api/v1/some/api', { getResponse: true }).then(({ data, response }) => {
  response.headers.get('Content-Type');
});

If want to get a custem header, you need to set Access-Control-Expose-Headers on server.

File upload

Use FormData() contructor，the browser will add request header "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" automatically, developer don't need to add request header Content-Type

const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', file);
request('/api/v1/some/api', { method: 'post', data: formData, requestType: 'form',});

The Access-Control-Expose-Headers response header indicates which headers can be exposed as part of the response by listing their names.Access-Control-Expose-Headers
