same, took me like five hrs to figured it out..

@ProfessorTom

In the code you pasted, you used url in both places. Was there a problem elsewhere or did you retype the code before pasting it here and thus corrected your error when asking for help?

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

@ProfessorTom Could you do a small test where you execute some simple test without Typescript?

Unfortunately, I don’t have time right now to look into it myself...

@ProfessorTom One idea you could try in your Typescript environment: Instead of using await rp(…) you could use await rp(…).promise(). Since rp(…) returns a mixed object that is a certain request object and a promise at the same time that may confuse the runtime. .promise() returns just the promise and that should definitely work with await.

I'm using your wonderful library in one of my projects and something weird keeps happening, is there anybody who could help me here or I should create an issue?

On my tests, sometimes req({option}).then() returns this error: "TypeError: req(...).then is not a function", I checked and on those cases req(...) is not a promise!
It's just my options (a json object )

So what am I doing wrong? Couldn't find anything on your issues

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

Hi @MahsaMaslahati , are you getting the error for the same line of code all the time or sometimes it work and sometimes it doesn’t? Could you paste one of your actual code snippets that doesn’t work here?

Btw, you can also open an issue for that. Whatever you prefer.

So my code looks like this

return rp(options)        
        .then(response => {
            let timeEntries = JSON.parse(response)['time-entries'];                       
            return timeEntries;
        })
        .catch(err => console.log(err.MESSAGE));

Which is a part of a method.

I am getting this error Unhandled rejection Error: StatusCodeError: 400 - "{\"MESSAGE\":\"Invalid Parameters - 'page' must be greater or equal to 1\",\"STATUS\":\"Error\"}"

What could be wrong

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

@fahdi You server is giving you a 400 response and tells you that your request is not proper. Not in a technical sense but in respect to its parameters. It seems you set options.qs.pageto a negative number.

Fahad Murtaza

@fahdi

That is understandable but how to get rid of Unhandled rejection Error: or how to handle it properly. Doing throw new Error(err); didn’t work

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

@fahdi The way you use then and catch in the snippet is perfect. The only explanation I currently have for your unhandled rejection is that you actual code doesn’t match the snippet. Or the rejection came from a different request at another spot in your code. Could you double check?

Fahad Murtaza

@fahdi

I will

@MahsaMaslahati

@analog-nico Thanks for your reply, but the problem was with my code, not the library. Thanks for your time.

How can I send an array of cookie objects with the request !

Stephen James

@sjames1958gm

With request, I was able to get the status code passed in the callback.
How do I get the status code with request-promise?

Stephen James

@sjames1958gm

nvm - found option for getting response in entirety

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

@sjames1958gm Correct, you can use the resolveWithFullResponse option.

@a-eid Sorry, I missed your message. Have a look at the cookie example. You can set multiple cookies there.

Stephen James

@sjames1958gm

@analog-nico thx

@KernelDev

Hi, is there an option to set a timeout on the request? Also could you provide a response time with the response object?

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

@KernelDev Have a look at the Request options. Request-Promise is built on top of Request and you can use all its options with Request-Promise as well. There is a timeout option. For the response time you can build a wrapper around your requests.

@KernelDev

@analog-nico Thank you very much

Where can I find release notes for each release? One of my modules is using a really old version 0.3.2 of request-promise and I'm seeing some issues where the request hangs indefinitely after a POST ... so I want to go through each version's release notes and find out which one might have fixed this issue or incorporated an update of request to fix such symptoms

Hey guys

I have

import request from 'request-promise-native';

creating a UMD module

in the browser everything works fine

when I get to NODE repl and inject my dist file

TypeError: global.XMLHttpRequest is not a constructor

This happens when I require my bundle ( using webpack)

any ideas?

John Doe

@peculiarity

ok I fixed that issue .. got new one ..

Hi all. I'm having issues setting my content-type header for a request containing files.

.then(token => {
    return rest.post({
        uri: '/api/v1/upload',
        headers: {
            'Authorization': token,
            'content-type': 'multipart/mixed',
        },
        formData: formData
    });
})

the request still shows the value multipart/form-data

am I setting the header wrong somehow?

John Doe

@peculiarity

oook :)

what do you want to upload ?

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

@pulkitsinghal Hey old pal, how are you doing? Have a look at the README. At the bottom there are all changes with the breaking changes being marked. At the top there are even migration steps you might need to take.

Nicolai Kamenzky

@analog-nico

@andreasvirkus Have a look at the details about forms in the request README. Btw, all request options work for request-promise as well. Usually, you don’t have to set the header yourself. It’s set automatically when you e.g. use the formData option.

Pulkit Singhal

@pulkitsinghal

@analog-nico - you're right! i got distracted with the notes on top and didn't scroll down far enough to see the details at the bottom. Thanks for pointing that out!!!

andreas

@andreasvirkus

The curl equivalent of what I'm trying to accomplish is this:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/upload -H “authorization:here goes token"
  --header "Content-type: multipart/mixed"  -F "imageFile=@TestImage.jpg”
  -F "imageFile=@TestImage2.jpg" -F "applicationNumber=SL-ESA-17000322"   -F "personalId=12345678A"

@analog-nico I can't use multipart/form-data unfortunately : /

andreas

@andreasvirkus

If I try and send my images as base64:

const formData = {
    applicationNumber,
    personalId,
    imageFile: files.map(file => new Buffer(fs.readFileSync(file.path)).toString('base64')),
};

then I get an error write after end

andreas

@andreasvirkus

Correction, the error I get is about the request being sent with contentType multipart/form-data:

415 - "{\"timestamp\":1506930784462,\"status\":415,\"error\":
\"Unsupported Media Type\",\"exception\":\"org.springframework.web.HttpMediaTypeNotSupportedException\",
\"message\":\"Content type 'multipart/form-data;boundary=--------------------------732586446978103238773917' not supported\",
\"path\":\"/api/v1/upload\"}"
