import 'whatwg-fetch'
import { Fetcher } from 'openapi-typescript-fetch'
import { paths } from './petstore'
// declare fetcher for paths
const fetcher = Fetcher.for<paths>()
// global configuration
fetcher.configure({
baseUrl: 'https://petstore.swagger.io/v2',
init: {
headers: {
...
},
},
use: [...] // middlewares
})
// create fetch operations
const findPetsByStatus = fetcher.path('/pet/findByStatus').method('get').create()
const addPet = fetcher.path('/pet').method('post').create()
// fetch
const { status, data: pets } = await findPetsByStatus({
status: ['available', 'pending'],
})
console.log(pets[0])A non-ok fetch response throws a generic ApiError
But an Openapi document can declare a different response type for each status code, or a default error response type
These can be accessed via a discriminated union on status, as in code snippet below
const findPetsByStatus = fetcher.path('/pet/findByStatus').method('get').create()
const addPet = fetcher.path('/pet').method('post').create()
try {
await findPetsByStatus({ ... })
await addPet({ ... })
} catch(e) {
// check which operation threw the exception
if (e instanceof addPet.Error) {
// get discriminated union { status, data }
const error = e.getActualType()
if (error.status === 400) {
error.data.validationErrors // only available for a 400 response
} else if (error.status === 500) {
error.data.errorMessage // only available for a 500 response
} else {
...
}
}
}Middlewares can be used to pre and post process fetch operations (log api calls, add auth headers etc)
import { Middleware } from 'openapi-typescript-fetch'
const logger: Middleware = async (url, init, next) => {
console.log(`fetching ${url}`)
const response = await next(url, init)
console.log(`fetched ${url}`)
return response
}
fetcher.configure({
baseUrl: 'https://petstore.swagger.io/v2',
init: { ... },
use: [logger],
})
// or
fetcher.use(logger)This library can be used server side with node-fetch
Node CommonJS setup
// install node-fetch v2
npm install node-fetch@2
npm install @types/node-fetch@2
// fetch-polyfill.ts
import fetch, { Headers, Request, Response } from 'node-fetch'
if (!globalThis.fetch) {
globalThis.fetch = fetch as any
globalThis.Headers = Headers as any
globalThis.Request = Request as any
globalThis.Response = Response as any
}
