Proper request with async/await in Node.JS

Question

In my program I make async call for my function from another API module:

var info = await api.MyRequest(value);

Module

Answer 1

Since request-promise has been deprecated, here are other options that don't depend on the NPM request package. got has been mentioned already, but it depends on 11 other packages. axios, in contrast, only has 1 dependency (for redirects). Everything else is natively implemented and built on top of the native NodeJS packages.

Here is the same example using axios:

const axios = require('axios')

const response = await axios.get(url)
const result = response.data

One-liner in TypeScript:

const {data} = await axios.get(url)
