Description

Starting from version 1.0.0, the library has been entirely rewritten using Typescript and ES6, eliminating the outdated jQuery plugin. The new architecture is based on plugins, resulting in a streamlined core library. Each file found in the dist/css and dist/js directories is available in two formats: the standard versions with .css and .js extensions, and the optimized versions with .min.css and .min.js extensions. For improved page load times and a better user experience on your production website, it is recommended to implement the minified files. Conversely, during development, utilizing the standard files without the .min suffix facilitates easier debugging and code maintenance. This transition not only enhances performance but also modernizes the overall structure of the library.

Description

Unirest is a collection of lightweight HTTP libraries developed and supported by Kong, the same entity that oversees the open-source API Gateway known as Kong. To get started with Unirest in a Node.js environment, you need to install the npm package. You might be curious about how Unirest simplifies the process of making requests. In addition to automatically handling gzip compression and parsing responses, Unirest offers straightforward examples to illustrate its functionality. A request can be initiated by calling the relevant method on the Unirest object, followed by the .end() function to dispatch the request. Alternatively, you can directly send the request by providing a callback alongside the URL. The library provides user-friendly methods that allow for manipulation of the request before it is dispatched. When a Unirest method is called, a request object is generated, which includes chainable methods similar to those found in libraries like jQuery and the widely-used Superagent request module, which serves as a partial model for this library. With these features, developers can enjoy a more efficient and intuitive experience when working with HTTP requests.
