cURL equivalent in Node.js?

Question

I\'m looking to use information from an HTTP request using Node.js (i.e. call a remote web service and echo the response to the client).

In PHP I would have used cUR

Answer 1

There is npm module to make a curl like request, npm curlrequest.

Step 1: $npm i -S curlrequest

Step 2: In your node file

let curl = require('curlrequest')
let options = {} // url, method, data, timeout,data, etc can be passed as options 
curl.request(options,(err,response)=>{
// err is the error returned  from the api
// response contains the data returned from the api
})

For further reading and understanding, npm curlrequest
