get

external fun get(options: RequestOptions, callback: (res: IncomingMessage) -> Unit = definedExternally): ClientRequest(source)
external fun get(options: String, callback: (res: IncomingMessage) -> Unit = definedExternally): ClientRequest(source)
external fun get(options: <Error class: unknown class>, callback: (res: IncomingMessage) -> Unit = definedExternally): ClientRequest(source)

Like http.get() but for HTTPS.

options can be an object, a string, or a URL object. If options is a string, it is automatically parsed with new URL(). If it is a URL object, it will be automatically converted to an ordinary options object.

import https from 'node:https';

https.get('https://encrypted.google.com/', (res) => {
  console.log('statusCode:', res.statusCode);
  console.log('headers:', res.headers);

  res.on('data', (d) => {
    process.stdout.write(d);
  });

}).on('error', (e) => {
  console.error(e);
});
