  {{ response.name }}'s username is {{ response.username }}
</fetch>

Output:

Install

$ npm i posthtml posthtml-fetch

Usage

const posthtml = require('posthtml')
const pf = require('posthtml-fetch')

posthtml()
  .use(pf())
  .process('<fetch url="https://example.test">{{ response }}</fetch>')
  .then(result => console.log(result.html))

  // => interpolated response body

The response body will be available under the response local variable.

Response types

The plugin supports json and text responses.

Only the response body is returned.

Expressions

The plugin uses posthtml-expressions, so you can use any of its tags to work with the response.

For example, you can iterate over items in a JSON response:

<fetch url="https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users">
  <each loop="user in response">
    {{ user.name }}
  </each>
</fetch>

Options

You can configure the plugin with the following options.

tags

Default: ['fetch', 'remote']

Array of supported tag names.

Only tags from this array will be processed by the plugin.

Example:

const posthtml = require('posthtml')
const pf = require('posthtml-fetch')

posthtml()
  .use(pf({
    tags: ['get']
  }))
  .process('<get url="https://example.test">{{ response }}</get>')
  .then(result => console.log(result.html))

attribute

Default: 'url'

String representing attribute name containing the URL to fetch.

Example:

const posthtml = require('posthtml')
const pf = require('posthtml-fetch')

posthtml()
  .use(pf({
    attribute: 'from'
  }))
  .process('<fetch from="https://example.test">{{ response }}</fetch>')
  .then(result => {
    console.log(result.html)
    // => interpolated response body
  })

got

The plugin uses got to fetch data. You can pass options directly to it, inside the got object.

Example:

const posthtml = require('posthtml')
const pf = require('posthtml-fetch')

posthtml()
  .use(pf({
    got: {
      // pass options to got...
    }
  }))
  .process('<fetch url="https://example.test">{{ response }}</fetch>')
  .then(result => {
    console.log(result.html)
    // => interpolated response body
  })

preserveTag

Default: false

When set to true, this option will preserve the tag around the response body.

Example:

const posthtml = require('posthtml')
const pf = require('posthtml-fetch')

posthtml()
  .use(pf({
    preserveTag: true
  }))
  .process('<fetch url="https://example.test">{{ response }}</fetch>')
  .then(result => {
    console.log(result.html)
    // => <fetch url="https://example.test">interpolated response body</fetch>
  })

expressions

Default: {}

You can pass options to posthtml-expressions.

Example:

const posthtml = require('posthtml')
const pf = require('posthtml-fetch')

posthtml()
  .use(pf({
    expressions: {
      delimiters: ['[[', ']]'],
    }
  }))
  .process('<fetch url="https://example.test">[[ response ]]</fetch>')
  .then(result => {
    console.log(result.html)
    // => interpolated response body
  })

Plugins

after/before

List of plugins that will be called after/before receiving and processing locals

Example:

const posthtml = require('posthtml')
const pf = require('posthtml-fetch')

posthtml()
  .use(pf({
    plugins: {
      after(tree) {
        // Your plugin implementation
      },
      before: [
        tree => {
          // Your plugin implementation
        },
        tree => {
          // Your plugin implementation
        }
      ]
    }
  }))
  .process('<fetch url="https://example.test">{{ response }}</fetch>')
  .then(result => {
    console.log(result.html)
    // => interpolated response body
  })
