[![Build Status](https://dev.azure.com/ms/typed-rest-client/_apis/build/status/Microsoft.typed-rest-client?branchName=master)](https://dev.azure.com/ms/typed-rest-client/_build/latest?definitionId=42&branchName=master)
# Typed REST and HTTP Client with TypeScript Typings
A lightweight REST and HTTP client optimized for use with TypeScript with generics and async await.
## Features
- REST and HTTP client with TypeScript generics and async/await/Promises
- Typings included so no need to acquire separately (great for intellisense and no versioning drift)
- Basic, Bearer and NTLM Support out of the box. Extensible handlers for others.
- Proxy support
- Certificate support (Self-signed server and client cert)
- Redirects supported
Intellisense and compile support:

## Install
```
npm install typed-rest-client --save
```
Or to install the latest preview:
```
npm install typed-rest-client@preview --save
```
## Samples
See the [samples](./samples) for complete coding examples. Also see the [REST](./test/tests/resttests.ts) and [HTTP](./test/tests/httptests.ts) tests for detailed examples.
## Errors
### HTTP
The HTTP client does not throw unless truly exceptional.
* A request that successfully executes resulting in a 404, 500 etc... will return a response object with a status code and a body.
* Redirects (3xx) will be followed by default.
See [HTTP tests](./test/tests/httptests.ts) for detailed examples.
### REST
The REST client is a high-level client which uses the HTTP client. Its responsibility is to turn a body into a typed resource object.
* A 200 will be success.
* Redirects (3xx) will be followed.
* A 404 will not throw but the result object will be null and the result statusCode will be set.
* Other 4xx and 5xx errors will throw. The status code will be attached to the error object. If a RESTful error object is returned (`{ message: xxx}`), then the error message will be that. Otherwise, it will be a generic, `Failed Request: (xxx)`.
See [REST tests](./test/tests/resttests.ts) for detailed examples.
## Debugging
To enable detailed console logging of all HTTP requests and responses, set the NODE_DEBUG environment varible:
```
export NODE_DEBUG=http
```
or
```
set NODE_DEBUG=http
```
## Node support
The typed-rest-client is built using the latest LTS version of Node 8. We also support the latest LTS for Node 4 and Node 6.
