Introduction to afetch

afetch is a powerful and versatile API designed to simplify data fetching and manipulation processes. This article aims to provide an in-depth introduction to afetch along with dozens of useful API explanations, complete with code snippets for better understanding.

Getting Started with afetch

To get started with afetch, you need to install it via npm:

  npm install afetch

Basic Usage

Below is a simple example of how you can use afetch to make a GET request:

  const afetch = require('afetch');

  afetch('https://api.example.com/data')
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => console.log(data))
    .catch(error => console.error('Error:', error));

Advanced Configuration

afetch allows for advanced configuration to cater to a wide range of needs:

  const afetch = require('afetch');

  const config = {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ key1: 'value1', key2: 'value2' })
  };

  afetch('https://api.example.com/submit', config)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => console.log(data))
    .catch(error => console.error('Error:', error));

Error Handling

Error handling in afetch is simple and effective:

  afetch('https://api.example.com/error')
    .then(response => {
      if (!response.ok) {
        throw new Error('Network response was not ok ' + response.statusText);
      }
      return response.json();
    })
    .then(data => console.log(data))
    .catch(error => console.error('There has been a problem with your fetch operation:', error));

Using with async/await

You can also use afetch with async/await for more readable and maintainable code:

  const fetchData = async () => {
    try {
      const response = await afetch('https://api.example.com/data');
      const data = await response.json();
      console.log(data);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error:', error);
    }
  };

  fetchData();

All-In-One Example App

Here is a comprehensive example combining different afetch APIs into a simple Node.js application:

  const afetch = require('afetch');

  async function fetchData() {
    try {
      let response = await afetch('https://api.example.com/data');
      let data = await response.json();
      console.log('Data:', data);

      response = await afetch('https://api.example.com/submit', {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
        body: JSON.stringify({key: 'value'})
      });
      data = await response.json();
      console.log('Submitted:', data);

      response = await afetch('https://api.example.com/error');
      if (!response.ok) {
        throw new Error('Network response was not ok ' + response.statusText);
      }
      data = await response.json();
      console.log('Should not log:', data);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error in fetching data:', error);
    }
  }

  fetchData();
