HTTP React

Http React is a React hooks library for data fetching. It's built on top of the native Fetch API.

Overview

With one hook call, you get all the information about a request that you can use to build UIs that are consistent and performant:

import useFetch from 'http-react'
 
// This is the default fetcher
const fetcher = (url, config) => fetch(url, config)
 
export default function App() {
  const { data, loading, error, responseTime } = useFetch('/api/user-info', {
    refresh: '30 sec',
    fetcher
  })
 
  if (loading) return <p>Loading</p>
 
  if (error) return <p>An error ocurred</p>
 
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>Welcome, {data.name}</h2>
      <small>Profile loaded in {responseTime} miliseconds</small>
    </div>
  )
}

It supports many features that are necessary in modern applications, while giving developers full control over the request configuration:

• Server-Side Rendering
• React Native
• Request deduplication
• Suspense
• Refresh
• Retry on error
• Pagination
• Local mutation (Optimistic UI)
• GraphQL

and more!
