rx ajax,GitHub - Carrooi/Js-RxAjax: Simple ajax reactive library

Rx-Ajax

Super simple (but advanced) ajax reactive library. Using RxJS.

Supports sending files.

Installation

$ npm install rx-ajax

Usage

import {Http} from 'rx-ajax';

let http = new Http;

let data = {number: 5};

let options = {};

http.request('/users', 'GET', data, options).subscribe((response) => {

console.log(response.json());

});

Shortcuts

http.get('/api', data, options).subscribe((response) => {});

http.post('/api', data, options).subscribe((response) => {});

http.files('/api', filesList, data, options).subscribe((response) => {});

Options

jsonp: name of callback for jsonp requests, when true is given callback name is used. Default is false

jsonPrefix: prefix for json requests. Read more here. Default is null

mimeType: Default is null

headers: List of headers to be send to server. Default is {}

files: List of files to be send to server. Default is []

Queue

By default all your requests are called from queue one by one, so there is always just one request running (or zero).

Inspiration is from this article http://blog.alexmaccaw.com/queuing-ajax-requests.

You can disable this feature with ImmediateQueue:

import {Http} from 'rx-ajax';

import {ImmediateQueue} from 'rx-ajax/queue';

let http = new Http({

queue: new ImmediateQueue

});

Events

http.send.subscribe(function(response, request) {

console.log('In any moment, new http request will be send to server');

});

http.afterSend.subscribe(function(response, request) {

console.log('I just sent some request to server, but there is still no response');

});

http.success.subscribe(function(response, request) {

console.log('I have got response from server without any error :-)');

});

http.error.subscribe(function(err, response, request) {

console.log('Sorry, there was some error with this response');

});

Extensions

Sometimes it will be better to register whole group of events and this group is called extension.

import {AbstractExtension} from 'rx-ajax/extensions';

import {Request, Response} from 'rx-ajax';

class CustomExtension extends AbstractExtension

{

public send(request: Request): void

{

// todo

}

public afterSend(request: Request): void

{

// todo

}

public success(response: Response): void

{

// todo

}

public error(err: Error): void

{

// todo

}

}

// ...

http.addExtension(new CustomExtension);

If your server sends json data with redirect variable, then you will be redirected to address in this variable.

import {Redirect} from 'rx-ajax/extensions';

http.addExtension(new Redirect);

Snippets

If there is snippets object in response data with html id and content pairs, then this extension will iterate through

this object, find element in page with given id and change content of given element into the one from response data.

import {Snippets} from 'rx-ajax/extensions';

http.addExtension(new Snippets);
