node.js http 'get' request with query string parameters

问题

I have a Node.js application that is an http client (at the moment). So I'm doing:

var query = require('querystring').stringify(propertiesObject);
http.get(url + query, function(res) {
   console.log("Got response: " + res.statusCode);
}).on('error', function(e) {
    console.log("Got error: " + e.message);
});

This seems like a good enough way to accomplish this. However I'm somewhat miffed that I had to do the url + query step. This should be encapsulated by a common library, but I don't see this existing in node's http library yet and I'm not sure what standard npm package might accomplish it. Is there a reasonably widely used way that's better?

url.format method saves the work of building own URL. But ideally the request will be higher level than this also.

回答1:

Check out the request module.

It's more full featured than node's built-in http client.

var request = require('request');

var propertiesObject = { field1:'test1', field2:'test2' };

request({url:url, qs:propertiesObject}, function(err, response, body) {
  if(err) { console.log(err); return; }
  console.log("Get response: " + response.statusCode);
});

No need for a 3rd party library. Use the nodejs url module to build a URL with query parameters:

const requestUrl = url.parse(url.format({
    protocol: 'https',
    hostname: 'yoursite.com',
    pathname: '/the/path',
    query: {
        key: value
    }
}));

Then make the request with the formatted url. requestUrl.path will include the query parameters.

const req = https.get({
    hostname: requestUrl.hostname,
    path: requestUrl.path,
}, (res) => {
   // ...
})

If you don't want use external package , Just add the following function in your utilities :

var params=function(req){
  let q=req.url.split('?'),result={};
  if(q.length>=2){
      q[1].split('&').forEach((item)=>{
           try {
             result[item.split('=')[0]]=item.split('=')[1];
           } catch (e) {
             result[item.split('=')[0]]='';
           }
      })
  }
  return result;
}

Then , in createServer call back , add attribute params to request object :

 http.createServer(function(req,res){
     req.params=params(req); // call the function above ;
      /**
       * http://mysite/add?name=Ahmed
       */
     console.log(req.params.name) ; // display : "Ahmed"

})

I have been struggling with how to add query string parameters to my URL. I couldn't make it work until I realized that I needed to add ? at the end of my URL, otherwise it won't work. This is very important as it will save you hours of debugging, believe me: been there...done that.

Below, is a simple API Endpoint that calls the Open Weather API and passes APPID, lat and lon as query parameters and return weather data as a JSON object. Hope this helps.

//Load the request module
var request = require('request');

//Load the query String module
var querystring = require('querystring');

// Load OpenWeather Credentials
var OpenWeatherAppId = require('../config/third-party').openWeather;

router.post('/getCurrentWeather', function (req, res) {
    var urlOpenWeatherCurrent = 'http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?'
    var queryObject = {
        APPID: OpenWeatherAppId.appId,
        lat: req.body.lat,
        lon: req.body.lon
    }
    console.log(queryObject)
    request({
        url:urlOpenWeatherCurrent,
        qs: queryObject
    }, function (error, response, body) {
        if (error) {
            console.log('error:', error); // Print the error if one occurred

        } else if(response && body) {
            console.log('statusCode:', response && response.statusCode); // Print the response status code if a response was received
            res.json({'body': body}); // Print JSON response.
        }
    })
})

Or if you want to use the querystring module, make the following changes

var queryObject = querystring.stringify({
    APPID: OpenWeatherAppId.appId,
    lat: req.body.lat,
    lon: req.body.lon
});

request({
   url:urlOpenWeatherCurrent + queryObject
}, function (error, response, body) {...})
