# minipass-fetch
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An implementation of window.fetch in Node.js using Minipass streams
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a fork (or more precisely, a reimplementation) of
|
||
|
|
[node-fetch](http://npm.im/node-fetch). All streams have been replaced
|
||
|
|
with [minipass streams](http://npm.im/minipass).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The goal of this module is to stay in sync with the API presented by
|
||
|
|
`node-fetch`, with the exception of the streaming interface provided.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Why
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Minipass streams are faster and more deterministic in their timing contract
|
||
|
|
than node-core streams, making them a better fit for many server-side use
|
||
|
|
cases.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## API
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See [node-fetch](http://npm.im/node-fetch)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Differences from `node-fetch` (and, by extension, from the WhatWG Fetch
|
||
|
|
specification):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Returns [minipass](http://npm.im/minipass) streams instead of node-core
|
||
|
|
streams.
|
||
|
|
- Supports the full set of [TLS Options that may be provided to
|
||
|
|
`https.request()`](https://nodejs.org/api/https.html#https_https_request_options_callback)
|
||
|
|
when making `https` requests.
