The HttpClient API is a powerful and versatile client library for making HTTP requests in JavaScript. It simplifies the process of interacting with web servers and APIs, enabling developers to fetch data, send requests, and handle responses.
- Supports multiple HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc. - Supports request headers and data. - Easy to use and provides a simple API.
- ` HttpClient.get(url)` - Retrieves a single resource. - ` HttpClient.post(url, data)` - Sends a POST request with data. - ` HttpClient.put(url, data, body)` - Sends a PUT request with data.
- `URL`: The destination URL of the resource. - `Method`: The HTTP method to use (e.g., 'GET', 'POST'). - `Headers`: Request headers (e.g., 'Content-Type', 'Authorization'). - `Body`: The data to send with the request (e.g., JSON data).
- The `HttpClient` returns error codes to indicate potential problems with the request. Refer to the official documentation for details.
