iotdb-fetch

Pipe oriented URL fetcher with cache

Notes

• if you want to be able to deal with unusual (by Node.JS standards) charsets, install iconv or iconv-lite and this will use it

GET

Parameterized Quick Functions

Get a text document. The result will be a string

_.promise()
    .then(fetch.document.get("http://www.davidjanes.com/"))
    .make(sd => {
        assert.ok(_.is.String(sd.document))
        console.log(sd.document)
    })

Get a binary document. The result will be a Buffer. Note this is the same call as the text one, it just figures out the right thing to do.

_.promise()
    .then(fetch.document.get("https://via.placeholder.com/600/24f355"))
    .make(sd => {
        assert.ok(_.is.Buffer(sd.document))
    })

Get a JSON document. The result will be a JSON (Object)

_.promise()
    .then(fetch.json.get("http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts"))
    .make(sd => {
        assert.ok(_.is.JSON(sd.json))
    })
