Request-Promise-Native

This package is similar to request-promise but uses native ES6 promises.

Please refer to the request-promise documentation. Everything applies to request-promise-native except the following:

• Instead of using Bluebird promises this library uses native ES6 promises.
• Mind that native ES6 promises have fewer features than Bluebird promises do. In particular, the .finally(...) method is not available.

Installation

This module is installed via npm:

install --save request
install --save request-promise-native

request is defined as a peer-dependency and thus has to be installed separately.

Migration from request-promise to request-promise-native

1. Go through the migration instructions to upgrade to request-promise v4.
2. Ensure that you don't use Bluebird-specific features on the promise returned by your request calls. In particular, you can't use .finally(...) anymore.
3. You are done.

Contributing

To set up your development environment:

1. clone the repo to your desktop,
2. in the shell cd to the main folder,
3. hit npm install,
4. hit npm install gulp -g if you haven't installed gulp globally yet, and
5. run gulp dev. (Or run node ./node_modules/.bin/gulp dev if you don't want to install gulp globally.)

gulp dev watches all source files and if you save some changes it will lint the code and execute all tests. The test coverage report can be viewed from ./coverage/lcov-report/index.html.

If you want to debug a test you should use gulp test-without-coverage to run all tests without obscuring the code by the test coverage instrumentation.
