simple-fetch-wrapper v1.3.8 is a lightweight HTTP client wrapping the native fetch API. It provides a simple interface for GET and POST requests, base URL configuration, default content type, request interceptors, a fetching status callback, and a custom event system. Updated infrequently, it offers minimal abstraction compared to axios or ky, with TypeScript declarations included. Good for small projects wanting fetch convenience without heavy dependencies.

Install & Compatibility

No compatibility data collected yet for this library.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import http from 'simple-fetch-wrapper'

✗ const http = require('simple-fetch-wrapper')

Package exports default object. CommonJS require works but TypeScript may complain without esModuleInterop.

http.setBaseUrl

✓ http.setBaseUrl('https://api.example.com')

✗ http.setBaseUrl = 'https://api.example.com'

setBaseUrl is a method, not a property assignment.

http.get

✓ const response = await http.get('/users', { params: { id: 1 } })

✗ const response = http.get('/users', { params: { id: 1 } })

get returns a Promise; must be awaited.

Shows base URL setup, content type, fetching status callback, and async GET/POST requests.

import http from 'simple-fetch-wrapper' http.setBaseUrl('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com') http.setDefaultContentType('application/json') http.isFetching((status) => { console.log('Fetching:', status) }) const response = await http.get('/posts/1') console.log('GET response:', response) const postResponse = await http.post('/posts', { body: { title: 'foo', body: 'bar', userId: 1 } }) console.log('POST response:', postResponse)

Debug

Known issues

gotchahttp.get and http.post do not include query params automatically; must provide via `params` key in args object.

fix

Include `params` object in args: http.get('/endpoint', { params: { key: 'value' } })

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchahttp.interceptor must return the modified requestConfig; if forgotten, subsequent requests may fail.

fix

Always return the requestConfig object from interceptor function.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchahttp.isFetching callback receives a boolean but is called multiple times; ensure side effects are idempotent.

fix

Use the callback for UI state updates that can be set repeatedly.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaCustom events using http.on/http.emit are in-memory and do not persist across page reloads.

fix

Use for transient app events only; not a replacement for persistent state management.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: http.get is not a function

CommonJS require used without default import; module.exports is an object, not a function.

fix

Use `import http from 'simple-fetch-wrapper'` or `const http = require('simple-fetch-wrapper').default`

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'then')

Forgetting to await the async http.get or http.post call.

fix

Add `await` before the call: `const res = await http.get(...)`

Error: No base URL set. Use setBaseUrl() first.

Calling http.get or http.post without previously setting a base URL via http.setBaseUrl().

fix

Call http.setBaseUrl('https://base.url') before making requests.
