Key Features

  • Exported constants for common HTTP status codes, such as ok for 200.
  • An extended HTTPError class that inherits from Error.
  • Useful polyfills, including an extended File object (derived from Blob) and URL.canParse() for URL validation.
  • A set of constants for commonly used Content-Types (from @shgysk8zer0/consts).
  • A versatile openLink() function compatible with various JavaScript environments.
  • A Cookie class for working with HTTP cookies, enabling easy cookie creation and management.

[!WARNING] Parsing of form data uses regex which has been reported as vulnerable to ReDoS attacks. parseMultipartFormData() is deprecated and will be removed in an upcoming release. Instead, in node > 18 you can use new Request(body, { headers }).formData().
