 | 
						||
pooling, proxies, retries, [and more](#features)!
 |

### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
const fetch = require('make-fetch-happen').defaults({
 | 
						||
  cachePath: './my-cache' // path where cache will be written (and read)
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen').then(res => {
 | 
						||
  return res.json() // download the body as JSON
 | 
						||
}).then(body => {
 | 
						||
  console.log(`got ${body.name} from web`)
 | 
						||
  return fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen', {
 | 
						||
    cache: 'no-cache' // forces a conditional request
 | 
						||
  })
 | 
						||
}).then(res => {
 | 
						||
  console.log(res.status) // 304! cache validated!
 | 
						||
  return res.json().then(body => {
 | 
						||
    console.log(`got ${body.name} from cache`)
 | 
						||
  })
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
### Features
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* Builds around [`minipass-fetch`](https://npm.im/minipass-fetch) for the core [`fetch` API](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org) implementation

 | 
						||
* Proxy support (http, https, socks, socks4, socks5)
 | 
						||
* Built-in request caching following full HTTP caching rules (`Cache-Control`, `ETag`, `304`s, cache fallback on error, etc).

						||
### API
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="fetch"></a> `> fetch(uriOrRequest, [opts]) -> Promise<Response>`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
This function implements most of the [`fetch` API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope/fetch): given a `uri` string or a `Request` instance, it will fire off an http request and return a Promise containing the relevant response.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
If `opts` is provided, the [`minipass-fetch`-specific options](#minipass-fetch-options) will be passed to that library. There are also [additional options](#extra-options) specific to make-fetch-happen that add various features, such as HTTP caching, integrity verification, proxy support, and more.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
fetch('https://google.com').then(res => res.buffer())
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="fetch-defaults"></a> `> fetch.defaults([defaultUrl], [defaultOpts])`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Returns a new `fetch` function that will call `make-fetch-happen` using `defaultUrl` and `defaultOpts` as default values to any calls.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
A defaulted `fetch` will also have a `.defaults()` method, so they can be chained.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
const fetch = require('make-fetch-happen').defaults({
 | 
						||
  cachePath: './my-local-cache'
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen') // will always use the cache
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="minipass-fetch-options"></a> `> minipass-fetch options`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
The following options for `minipass-fetch` are used as-is:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* method
 | 
						||
* body
 | 
						||
* redirect
 | 
						||
* follow
 | 
						||
* timeout
 | 
						||
* compress
 | 
						||
* size
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
These other options are modified or augmented by make-fetch-happen:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* headers - Default `User-Agent` set to make-fetch happen. `Connection` is set to `keep-alive` or `close` automatically depending on `opts.agent`.
 | 
						||
* agent
 | 
						||
  * If agent is null, an http or https Agent will be automatically used. By default, these will be `http.globalAgent` and `https.globalAgent`.
 | 
						||
  * If [`opts.proxy`](#opts-proxy) is provided and `opts.agent` is null, the agent will be set to an appropriate proxy-handling agent.
 | 
						||
  * If `opts.agent` is an object, it will be used as the request-pooling agent argument for this request.
 | 
						||
  * If `opts.agent` is `false`, it will be passed as-is to the underlying request library. This causes a new Agent to be spawned for every request.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
For more details, see [the documentation for `minipass-fetch` itself](https://github.com/npm/minipass-fetch#options).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="extra-options"></a> `> make-fetch-happen options`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
make-fetch-happen augments the `minipass-fetch` API with additional features available through extra options. The following extra options are available:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* [`opts.cachePath`](#opts-cache-path) - Cache target to read/write
 | 
						||
* [`opts.cache`](#opts-cache) - `fetch` cache mode. Controls cache *behavior*.
 | 
						||
* [`opts.proxy`](#opts-proxy) - Proxy agent
 | 
						||
* [`opts.noProxy`](#opts-no-proxy) - Domain segments to disable proxying for.
 | 
						||
* [`opts.ca, opts.cert, opts.key, opts.strictSSL`](#https-opts)
 | 
						||
* [`opts.localAddress`](#opts-local-address)
 | 
						||
* [`opts.maxSockets`](#opts-max-sockets)
 | 
						||
* [`opts.retry`](#opts-retry) - Request retry settings
 | 
						||
* [`opts.onRetry`](#opts-onretry) - a function called whenever a retry is attempted
 | 
						||
* [`opts.integrity`](#opts-integrity) - [Subresource Integrity](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity) metadata.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-cache-path"></a> `> opts.cachePath`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
A string `Path` to be used as the cache root for [`cacache`](https://npm.im/cacache).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
**NOTE**: Requests will not be cached unless their response bodies are consumed. You will need to use one of the `res.json()`, `res.buffer()`, etc methods on the response, or drain the `res.body` stream, in order for it to be written.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
The default cache manager also adds the following headers to cached responses:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* `X-Local-Cache`: Path to the cache the content was found in
 | 
						||
* `X-Local-Cache-Key`: Unique cache entry key for this response
 | 
						||
* `X-Local-Cache-Mode`: Either `stream` or `buffer` to indicate how the response was read from cacache
 | 
						||
* `X-Local-Cache-Hash`: Specific integrity hash for the cached entry
 | 
						||
* `X-Local-Cache-Status`: One of `miss`, `hit`, `stale`, `revalidated`, `updated`, or `skip` to signal how the response was created
 | 
						||
* `X-Local-Cache-Time`: UTCString of the cache insertion time for the entry
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Using [`cacache`](https://npm.im/cacache), a call like this may be used to
 | 
						||
manually fetch the cached entry:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
const h = response.headers
 | 
						||
cacache.get(h.get('x-local-cache'), h.get('x-local-cache-key'))
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
// grab content only, directly:
 | 
						||
cacache.get.byDigest(h.get('x-local-cache'), h.get('x-local-cache-hash'))
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen', {
 | 
						||
  cachePath: './my-local-cache'
 | 
						||
}) // -> 200-level response will be written to disk
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
A possible (minimal) implementation for `MyCustomRedisCache`:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
const bluebird = require('bluebird')
 | 
						||
const redis = require("redis")
 | 
						||
bluebird.promisifyAll(redis.RedisClient.prototype)
 | 
						||
class MyCustomRedisCache {
 | 
						||
  constructor (opts) {
 | 
						||
    this.redis = redis.createClient(opts)
 | 
						||
  }
 | 
						||
  match (req) {
 | 
						||
    return this.redis.getAsync(req.url).then(res => {
 | 
						||
      if (res) {
 | 
						||
        const parsed = JSON.parse(res)
 | 
						||
        return new fetch.Response(parsed.body, {
 | 
						||
          url: req.url,
 | 
						||
          headers: parsed.headers,
 | 
						||
          status: 200
 | 
						||
        })
 | 
						||
      }
 | 
						||
    })
 | 
						||
  }
 | 
						||
  put (req, res) {
 | 
						||
    return res.buffer().then(body => {
 | 
						||
      return this.redis.setAsync(req.url, JSON.stringify({
 | 
						||
        body: body,
 | 
						||
        headers: res.headers.raw()
 | 
						||
      }))
 | 
						||
    }).then(() => {
 | 
						||
      // return the response itself
 | 
						||
      return res
 | 
						||
    })
 | 
						||
  }
 | 
						||
  'delete' (req) {
 | 
						||
    return this.redis.unlinkAsync(req.url)
 | 
						||
  }
 | 
						||
}
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-cache"></a> `> opts.cache`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
This option follows the standard `fetch` API cache option. This option will do nothing if [`opts.cachePath`](#opts-cache-path) is null. The following values are accepted (as strings):
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* `default` - Fetch will inspect the HTTP cache on the way to the network. If there is a fresh response it will be used. If there is a stale response a conditional request will be created, and a normal request otherwise. It then updates the HTTP cache with the response. If the revalidation request fails (for example, on a 500 or if you're offline), the stale response will be returned.
 | 
						||
* `no-store` - Fetch behaves as if there is no HTTP cache at all.
 | 
						||
* `reload` - Fetch behaves as if there is no HTTP cache on the way to the network. Ergo, it creates a normal request and updates the HTTP cache with the response.
 | 
						||
* `no-cache` - Fetch creates a conditional request if there is a response in the HTTP cache and a normal request otherwise. It then updates the HTTP cache with the response.
 | 
						||
* `force-cache` - Fetch uses any response in the HTTP cache matching the request, not paying attention to staleness. If there was no response, it creates a normal request and updates the HTTP cache with the response.
 | 
						||
* `only-if-cached` - Fetch uses any response in the HTTP cache matching the request, not paying attention to staleness. If there was no response, it returns a network error. (Can only be used when request’s mode is "same-origin". Any cached redirects will be followed assuming request’s redirect mode is "follow" and the redirects do not violate request’s mode.)
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
(Note: option descriptions are taken from https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#http-network-or-cache-fetch)
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
const fetch = require('make-fetch-happen').defaults({
 | 
						||
  cachePath: './my-cache'
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
// Will error with ENOTCACHED if we haven't already cached this url
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen', {
 | 
						||
  cache: 'only-if-cached'
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
// Will refresh any local content and cache the new response
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen', {
 | 
						||
  cache: 'reload'
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
// Will use any local data, even if stale. Otherwise, will hit network.
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen', {
 | 
						||
  cache: 'force-cache'
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-proxy"></a> `> opts.proxy`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
A string or `new url.URL()`-d URI to proxy through. Different Proxy handlers will be
 | 
						||
used depending on the proxy's protocol.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Additionally, `process.env.HTTP_PROXY`, `process.env.HTTPS_PROXY`, and
 | 
						||
`process.env.PROXY` are used if present and no `opts.proxy` value is provided.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
(Pending) `process.env.NO_PROXY` may also be configured to skip proxying requests for all, or specific domains.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen', {
 | 
						||
  proxy: 'https://corporate.yourcompany.proxy:4445'
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen', {
 | 
						||
  proxy: {
 | 
						||
    protocol: 'https:',
 | 
						||
    hostname: 'corporate.yourcompany.proxy',
 | 
						||
    port: 4445
 | 
						||
  }
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-no-proxy"></a> `> opts.noProxy`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
If present, should be a comma-separated string or an array of domain extensions
 | 
						||
that a proxy should _not_ be used for.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
This option may also be provided through `process.env.NO_PROXY`.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="https-opts"></a> `> opts.ca, opts.cert, opts.key, opts.strictSSL`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
These values are passed in directly to the HTTPS agent and will be used for both
 | 
						||
proxied and unproxied outgoing HTTPS requests. They mostly correspond to the
 | 
						||
same options the `https` module accepts, which will be themselves passed to
 | 
						||
`tls.connect()`. `opts.strictSSL` corresponds to `rejectUnauthorized`.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-local-address"></a> `> opts.localAddress`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Passed directly to `http` and `https` request calls. Determines the local
 | 
						||
address to bind to.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-max-sockets"></a> `> opts.maxSockets`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Default: 15
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Maximum number of active concurrent sockets to use for the underlying
 | 
						||
Http/Https/Proxy agents. This setting applies once per spawned agent.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
15 is probably a _pretty good value_ for most use-cases, and balances speed
 | 
						||
with, uh, not knocking out people's routers. 🤓
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-retry"></a> `> opts.retry`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
An object that can be used to tune request retry settings. Retries will only be attempted on the following conditions:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* Request method is NOT `POST` AND
 | 
						||
* Request status is one of: `408`, `420`, `429`, or any status in the 500-range. OR
 | 
						||
* Request errored with `ECONNRESET`, `ECONNREFUSED`, `EADDRINUSE`, `ETIMEDOUT`, or the `fetch` error `request-timeout`.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
The following are worth noting as explicitly not retried:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* `getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND` and will be assumed to be either an unreachable domain or the user will be assumed offline. If a response is cached, it will be returned immediately.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
If `opts.retry` is `false`, it is equivalent to `{retries: 0}`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
If `opts.retry` is a number, it is equivalent to `{retries: num}`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
The following retry options are available if you want more control over it:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
* retries
 | 
						||
* factor
 | 
						||
* minTimeout
 | 
						||
* maxTimeout
 | 
						||
* randomize
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
For details on what each of these do, refer to the [`retry`](https://npm.im/retry) documentation.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
fetch('https://flaky.site.com', {
 | 
						||
  retry: {
 | 
						||
    retries: 10,
 | 
						||
    randomize: true
 | 
						||
  }
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
fetch('http://reliable.site.com', {
 | 
						||
  retry: false
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
fetch('http://one-more.site.com', {
 | 
						||
  retry: 3
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-onretry"></a> `> opts.onRetry`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
A function called whenever a retry is attempted.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
fetch('https://flaky.site.com', {
 | 
						||
  onRetry() {
 | 
						||
    console.log('we will retry!')
 | 
						||
  }
 | 
						||
})
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#### <a name="opts-integrity"></a> `> opts.integrity`
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
Matches the response body against the given [Subresource Integrity](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity) metadata. If verification fails, the request will fail with an `EINTEGRITY` error.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
`integrity` may either be a string or an [`ssri`](https://npm.im/ssri) `Integrity`-like.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
##### Example
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```javascript
 | 
						||
fetch('https://registry.npmjs.org/make-fetch-happen/-/make-fetch-happen-1.0.0.tgz', {
 | 
						||
  integrity: 'sha1-o47j7zAYnedYFn1dF/fR9OV3z8Q='
 | 
						||
}) // -> ok
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
fetch('https://malicious-registry.org/make-fetch-happen/-/make-fetch-happen-1.0.0.tgz', {
 | 
						||
  integrity: 'sha1-o47j7zAYnedYFn1dF/fR9OV3z8Q='
 | 
						||
}) // Error: EINTEGRITY
 | 
						||
```
