This is a simple nestjs module that exposes the got http package by exporting the GotService
after module registration while leveraging the Reactive Programming Pattern provided by rxjs.

Installation is pretty simple and straightforward as all you have to do is run the following commands depending on your package manager:
- npm
npm install --save @t00nday/nestjs-got got@^11.0.0
- yarn
yarn add @t00nday/nestjs-got got@^11.0.0
Using this module is quite simple, you just have to register it as a dependency using any of the methods below:
This could be done synchronously using the register()
method:
./app.module.ts
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { GotModule } from '@t00nday/nestjs-got';
@Module({
imports: [
// ... other modules
GotModule.register({
prefixUrl: 'http://example.org',
// ...
}), // Accepts a GotModuleOptions object as a parameter
],
})
export class AppModule {}
The module could also be registered asynchronously using any of the approaches provided by the registerAsync()
method:
Examples below:
- Using options factory provider approach
./app.module.ts
// prettier-ignore
import {
GotModule,
GotModuleOptions
} from '@t00nday/nestjs-got';
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
@Module({
imports: [
// ... other modules
GotModule.registerAsync({
useFactory: (): GotModuleOptions => ({
prefixUrl: 'https://example.org',
// ...
}),
}),
],
})
export class AppModule {}
- Using class or existing provider approach:
./got-config.service.ts
import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { GotModuleOptions, GotOptionsFactory } from '@t00nday/nestjs-got';
@Injectable()
export class GotConfigService implements GotModuleOptionsFactory {
createGotOptions(): GotModuleOptions {
return {
prefixUrl: 'https://example.org',
// ...
};
}
}
The GotConfigService
SHOULD implement the GotModuleOptionsFactory
, MUST declare the createGotOptions()
method and MUST return GotModuleOptions
object.
./app.module.ts
// prettier-ignore
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { GotModule, GotModuleOptions } from '@t00nday/nestjs-got';
import { GotConfigService } from './got-config.service.ts';
@Module({
imports: [
// ... other modules
GotModule.registerAsync({
useClass: GotConfigService,
}),
],
})
export class AppModule {}
The GotModuleOptions
is an alias for the got
package's ExtendOptions
hence accepts the same configuration object.
The module currently only exposes the basic JSON HTTP verbs, as well as the pagination methods through the GotService
.
For all JSON HTTP verbs - get
, head
, post
, put
, patch
and delete
- which are also the exposed methods, below is the the method signature where method: string
MUST be any of their corresponding verbs.
// This is just used to explain the methods as this code doesn't exist in the package
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { Response, OptionsOfJSONResponseBody } from 'got';
interface GotInterface {
// prettier-ignore
[method: string]: ( // i.e. 'get', 'head', 'post', 'put' or 'delete' method
url: string | URL,
options?: OptionsOfJSONResponseBody,
) => Observable<Response<T>>;;
}
For all pagination methods - each
and all
, below is the method signature each of them.
// This is just used to explain the methods as this code doesn't exist in the package
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { Response, OptionsOfJSONResponseBody } from 'got';
interface PaginateInterface {
[method: string]: <T = any, R = unknown>( // i.e 'all' or 'each' method
url: string | URL,
options?: OptionsWithPagination<T, R>,
) => Observable<T | T[]>;
}
Usage examples:
@Controller()
export class ExampleController {
constructor(private readonly gotService: GotService) {}
controllerMethod() {
// ...
this.gotService.pagination.all<T>(someUrl, withOptions); // Returns Observable<T[]>
// or
this.gotService.pagination.each<T>(someUrl, withOptions); // Returns Observable<T>
// ...
}
}

The stream feature is divided into two parts. This is because (and as stated in the documentation here), while the stream request is actually a stream.Duplex
the GET and HEAD requests return a stream.Readable
and the POST, PUT, PATCH and DELETE requests return a stream.Writable
.
This prompted an implementation that attempts to cover both scenarios. The difference is only present in the arguments acceptable by the respective methods.
Further, all methods of the stream property return a stream request to which we can chain an on<T>(eventType)
method which in turn returns a fromEvent observable. This affords us the ability to subscribe to events we wish to listen for from the request.
Possible eventType
s include (and quite constrained to those provided by the got package):
-
end
-
data
-
error
-
request
-
readable
-
response
-
redirect
-
uploadProgress
-
downloadProgress
For GET and HEAD stream requests, below is the method signature:
// This is just used to explain the methods as this code doesn't exist in the package
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { StreamOptions } from 'got';
import { StreamRequest } from '@toonday/nestjs-got/dist/stream.request';
interface StreamInterface {
[method: string]: <T = unknown>(
url: string | URL,
options?: StreamOptions,
): StreamRequest;
}
while that of the POST, PUT, PATCH and DELETE is:
// This is just used to explain the methods as this code doesn't exist in the package
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { StreamOptions } from 'got';
import { StreamRequest } from '@toonday/nestjs-got/dist/stream.request';
interface StreamInterface {
[method: string]: <T = unknown>(
url: string | URL,
filePathOrStream?: string | Readable, // This is relative to 'process.cwd()'
options?: StreamOptions,
): StreamRequest<T>;
}
Usage examples:
@Controller()
export class ExampleController {
constructor(private readonly gotService: GotService) {}
controllerMethod() {
// ...
this
.gotService
.stream
.get(someUrl, streamOptions)
.on<T>(eventType)
.subscribe(subscribeFunction: Function); // Returns Observable<T>
// or
this
.gotService
.stream
.head(someUrl, streamOptions)
.on<T>(eventType)
.subscribe(subscribeFunction: Function); // Returns Observable<T>
// or
this
.gotService
.stream
.post(someUrl, filePathOrStream, streamOptions)
.on<T>(eventType)
.subscribe(subscribeFunction: Function); // Returns Observable<T>
// or
this
.gotService
.stream
.put(someUrl, filePathOrStream, streamOptions)
.on<T>(eventType)
.subscribe(subscribeFunction: Function); // Returns Observable<T>
// or
this
.gotService
.stream
.patch(someUrl, filePathOrStream, streamOptions)
.on<T>(eventType)
.subscribe(subscribeFunction: Function); // Returns Observable<T>
// or
this
.gotService
.stream
.delete(someUrl, filePathOrStream, streamOptions)
.on<T>(eventType)
.subscribe(subscribeFunction: Function); // Returns Observable<T>
// ...
}
}
