Properties

abortEvent

val abortEvent: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for node.events.EventInstance<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.Tuple>

chunkedEncoding

var chunkedEncoding: Boolean

A boolean specifying whether the request will use HTTP chunked transfer encoding or not. Defaults to false. The property is readable and writable, however it can be set only before the first write operation as the HTTP headers are not yet put on the wire. Trying to set the chunkedEncoding property after the first write will throw an error.

closeEvent

val closeEvent: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for node.events.EventInstance<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.Tuple>

errorEvent

val errorEvent: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for node.events.EventInstance<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.Tuple1<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.errors.JsError>>

finishEvent

val finishEvent: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for node.events.EventInstance<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.Tuple>

loginEvent

val loginEvent: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for node.events.EventInstance<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.Tuple2<electron/core/AuthInfo, kotlin/Function2<@R|kotlin/ParameterName|(name = String(username)) kotlin/String?, @R|kotlin/ParameterName|(name = String(password)) kotlin/String?, kotlin/Unit>>>

redirectEvent

val redirectEvent: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for node.events.EventInstance<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.Tuple4<kotlin/Double, kotlin/String, kotlin/String, ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.objects.ReadonlyRecord<kotlin/String, ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.ReadonlyArray<kotlin/String>>>>

responseEvent

val responseEvent: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for node.events.EventInstance<ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for js.array.Tuple1<electron/core/IncomingMessage>>

Functions

abort

fun abort()

Cancels an ongoing HTTP transaction. If the request has already emitted the close event, the abort operation will have no effect. Otherwise an ongoing event will emit abort and close events. Additionally, if there is an ongoing response object,it will emit the aborted event.

end

fun end()

fun end(chunk: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for Buffer<*> = definedExternally, encoding: String = definedExternally, callback: () -> Unit = definedExternally)

fun end(chunk: String = definedExternally, encoding: String = definedExternally, callback: () -> Unit = definedExternally)

Sends the last chunk of the request data. Subsequent write or end operations will not be allowed. The finish event is emitted just after the end operation.

followRedirect

fun followRedirect()

Continues any pending redirection. Can only be called during a 'redirect' event.

getHeader

fun getHeader(name: String): String

The value of a previously set extra header name.

getUploadProgress

fun getUploadProgress(): UploadProgress

You can use this method in conjunction with POST requests to get the progress of a file upload or other data transfer.

removeHeader

fun removeHeader(name: String)

Removes a previously set extra header name. This method can be called only before first write. Trying to call it after the first write will throw an error.

setHeader

fun setHeader(name: String, value: String)

Adds an extra HTTP header. The header name will be issued as-is without lowercasing. It can be called only before first write. Calling this method after the first write will throw an error. If the passed value is not a string, its toString() method will be called to obtain the final value.

write

fun write(chunk: ERROR CLASS: Symbol not found for Buffer<*>, encoding: String = definedExternally, callback: () -> Unit = definedExternally)

fun write(chunk: String, encoding: String = definedExternally, callback: () -> Unit = definedExternally)

callback is essentially a dummy function introduced in the purpose of keeping similarity with the Node.js API. It is called asynchronously in the next tick after chunk content have been delivered to the Chromium networking layer. Contrary to the Node.js implementation, it is not guaranteed that chunk content have been flushed on the wire before callback is called.
