genericRestGet

With genericRestGet you can get easy data from a REST API

Installation

$ npm install genericrestget

Use

The implementation of this module is very simple:

'use strict';
 
var genericRestGet = require('./lib/app');
 
var options = {
  host: 'http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com',
  path: '/posts/1'
}
 
genericRestGet(options, function (callback) {
  console.log(callback);
})
 

Options

• host: A domain name or IP address of the server to issue the request to. Defaults to 'localhost'.
• path: Request path. Defaults to '/'. Should include query string if any. E.G. '/index.html?page=12'. An exception is thrown when the request path contains illegal characters. Currently, only spaces are rejected but that may change in the future.
• headers: An object containing request headers.
