Purescript-Simple-Ajax

An opinionated library to work with AJAX and JSON, using argonaut and variant.

Thanks to Vladimir Ciobanu for his error handling solution.

Functions

All requests have 4 versions:

• post: Takes the request URL and some optional content and then tries to parse the response.
• post_: Takes the request URL and some optional content, but ignores the response payload.
• postR: Like post, but takes a subset of a SimpleRequest as an additional argument (for example if additional headers are needed).
• postR_: Like post_, but takes a subset of a SimpleRequest as an additional argument.

POST requests also have variations that includes the response headers. (Tuple (Array ResponseHeader) b) is returned in place of b, where b is just Unit in the _ versions: postH, postH_, postRH, postRH_

Requests payload objects must implement an instance of EncodeJson and responses payload objects must implement an instance of DecodeJson.

Check argonaut-codecs documentation to learn more about this.

Requests

simpleRequest, getR, postR, postRH, putR, deleteR and patchR (and the versions ending with an underscore) accept a subset of a SimpleRequest as an argument.

type SimpleRequest = { headers         :: Array RequestHeader
                     , username        :: Maybe String
                     , password        :: Maybe String
                     , withCredentials :: Boolean
                     }

For example:

getR { withCredentials: true } "http://www.google.it"

Headers and MediaType

The default requests sets the header Accept (MediaType "application/json"). When passing a new headers array, this header should be included again or the request will fail.

Errors

The different types of error (Error, ForeignError and ResponseFormatError) are put together in a Variant.

There are two type alias:

• HTTPError containing the common http errors and affjax Error
• AjaxError which extends HTTPError to add json parsing errors

By using Variant's functions, it's possible to match on them:

let error = 
  default "Generic error"
  # on _notFound $ const "Not found"
  # on _badRequest identity
  # on _parseError $ intercalate ", " <<< map renderForeignError
  $ err

Example usage

import Prelude
import Data.Either (Either(..))
import Data.Maybe (Maybe(..))
import Data.Variant (default, on)
import Effect (Effect)
import Effect.Aff (launchAff_)
import Effect.Class.Console (log, logShow)
import Simple.Ajax (_unAuthorized, post)


payload :: { foo :: Int, bar :: String }
payload = { foo: 1, bar: "hello" }

type Baz = { baz :: Boolean }

main = launchAff_ $ do
  res <- post url (Just payload)
  case res of
    Left err -> do
      let error = 
            default "Generic error" 
            # on _unAuthorized (const "Not authorized") 
            $ err
      log error
    Right (res :: Baz) ->
      logShow res

NOTE: To run this in the console you will need to install xhr2 (or similar) with npm.

npm init
npm install xhr2
spago run
