# unfetch

> Tiny 500b fetch "barely-polyfill"

-   **Tiny:** weighs about **500 bytes** gzipped
-   **Minimal:** just `fetch()` with headers and text/json/xml responses
-   **Familiar:** a subset of the full API
-   **Supported:** supports IE8+ (<abbr title="Bring Your Own Promises">BYOP</abbr>)
-   **Standalone:** one function, no dependencies

> 🤔 **What's Missing?**
>
> -   Uses simple Arrays instead of Iterables, since Arrays _are_ iterables
> -   No streaming, just Promisifies existing XMLHttpRequest response bodies
> -   Bare-bones `.blob()` implementation - just proxies `xhr.response`

## Install

This project uses [node](http://nodejs.org) and [npm](https://npmjs.com). Go check them out if you don't have them locally installed.

```sh
$ npm install --save unfetch
```

Then with a module bundler like [rollup](http://rollupjs.org/) or [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/), use as you would anything else:

```javascript
// using ES6 modules
import fetch from 'unfetch'

// using CommonJS modules
var fetch = require('unfetch')
```

The [UMD](https://github.com/umdjs/umd) build is also available on [unpkg](https://unpkg.com):

```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/unfetch/dist/unfetch.umd.js"></script>
```

This exposes a `fetch` global if not already present.

* * *

## Usage

```js
import fetch from 'unfetch'

fetch('/foo.json')
  .then( r => r.json() )
  .then( data => {
    console.log(data)
  })
```

## Examples & Demos

```js
// simple GET request:
fetch('/foo')
  .then( r => r.text() )
  .then( txt => console.log(txt) )


// complex POST request with JSON, headers:
fetch('/bear', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ hungry: true })
}).then( r => {
  open(r.headers.get('location'));
  return r.json();
})
```
