// `timeout` specifies the number of milliseconds before the request times out.

httpAgent: new http.Agent({ keepAlive: true }),
httpsAgent: new https.Agent({ keepAlive: true }),
// 'proxy' defines the hostname and port of the proxy server.
// You can also define your proxy using the conventional `http_proxy` and
// `https_proxy` environment variables. If you are using environment variables
// for your proxy configuration, you can also define a `no_proxy` environment
// variable as a comma-separated list of domains that should not be proxied.
// Use `false` to disable proxies, ignoring environment variables.
// `auth` indicates that HTTP Basic auth should be used to connect to the proxy, and

}The response comes back as a Promise so you can successful responses and handle errors.
{
// `data` is the response that was provided by the server
data: {},
// `status` is the HTTP status code from the server response
status: 200,
// `statusText` is the HTTP status message from the server response
statusText: 'OK',
// `headers` the headers that the server responded with
// All header names are lower cased
headers: {},
// `config` is the config that was provided for the request
config: {},
// `request` is the request that generated this response
// It is the last ClientRequest instance in node.js (in redirects)
// and an XMLHttpRequest instance the browser
request: {}
}Each returns a promise so you can get the response :
httpService.get("url").then((response) => {
this.data = response.data;
});Request middleware help to intercept requests going out of your application to provide additional features. It could be adding API tokens, or having a localized loader.
Start by using the Varie CLI
$ varie make:request-middleware your-middleware-name
You have availability to customize how you want the request / response and what the responseError should do if it does indeed fail.
You can take a look at the included middleware app/middleware/LoadingScreen for a example of what you might do.
To register you will need to open the app/middleware/index and register the middleware in the order you wish them to run.
To disable a app middleware for a particular route you can use the unregister method
import MiddlewareClass from "app/middleware/MiddlewareClass";
httpService
.unregisterMiddleware(MiddlewareClass)
.get("url")
.then((response) => {
this.data = response.data;
});
