Steps to send a https request to a rest service in Node js
What are the steps to send a https request in node js to a rest service? I have an api exposed like https://133-70-97-54-43.sample.com/feedSample/Query_Status_View/Query_Status/Output1?STATUS=Joined%20school
How to pass the request and what are the options I need to give for this API like host, port, path and method?
最简单的方法是使用请求模块。
request('https://example.com/url?a=b', function (error, response, body) {
if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
console.log(body);
}
});
just use the core https module with the https.request function. Example for a POST request ( GET would be similar):
var https = require('https');
var options = {
host: 'www.google.com',
port: 443,
path: '/upload',
method: 'POST'
};
var req = https.request(options, function(res) {
console.log('STATUS: ' + res.statusCode);
console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(res.headers));
res.setEncoding('utf8');
res.on('data', function (chunk) {
console.log('BODY: ' + chunk);
});
});
req.on('error', function(e) {
console.log('problem with request: ' + e.message);
});
// write data to request body
req.write('datan');
req.write('datan');
req.end();
使用请求模块解决了问题。
// Include the request library for Node.js
var request = require('request');
// Basic Authentication credentials
var username = "vinod";
var password = "12345";
var authenticationHeader = "Basic " + new Buffer(username + ":" + password).toString("base64");
request(
{
url : "https://133-70-97-54-43.sample.com/feedSample/Query_Status_View/Query_Status/Output1?STATUS=Joined%20school",
headers : { "Authorization" : authenticationHeader }
},
function (error, response, body) {
console.log(body); } );
