browserify/http-browserify: node's http module, but for the browser

The http module from node.js, but for browsers.

When you require('http') in browserify, this module will be loaded.

var http = require('http');

http.get({ path : '/beep' }, function (res) {
    var div = document.getElementById('result');
    div.innerHTML += 'GET /beep<br>';
    
    res.on('data', function (buf) {
        div.innerHTML += buf;
    });
    
    res.on('end', function () {
        div.innerHTML += '<br>__END__';
    });
});

var http = require('http');

where opts are:

• opts.method='GET' - http method verb
• opts.path - path string, example: '/foo/bar?baz=555'
• opts.headers={} - as an object mapping key names to string or Array values
• opts.host=window.location.host - http host
• opts.port=window.location.port - http port
• opts.responseType - response type to set on the underlying xhr object

The callback will be called with the response object.

A shortcut for

options.method = 'GET';
var req = http.request(options, cb);
req.end();

Set an http header.

Get an http header.

Remove an http header.

Write some data to the request body.

If only 1 piece of data is written, data can be a FormData, Blob, or ArrayBuffer instance. Otherwise, data should be a string or a buffer.

Close and send the request body, optionally with additional data to append.

Return an http header, if set. key is case-insensitive.

• res.statusCode, the numeric http response code
• res.headers, an object with all lowercase keys

This module has been tested and works with:

• Internet Explorer 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 9
• Firefox 3.5
• Chrome 7.0
• Opera 10.6
• Safari 5.0

Multipart streaming responses are buffered in all versions of Internet Explorer and are somewhat buffered in Opera. In all the other browsers you get a nice unbuffered stream of "data" events when you send down a content-type of multipart/octet-stream or similar.

You can do:

var bundle = browserify({
    require : { http : 'http-browserify' }
});

in order to map "http-browserify" over require('http') in your browserified source.

With npm do:

npm install http-browserify
