> Synchronous and asynchronous XMLHttpRequest for Node
[](https://travis-ci.org/Mogztter/unxhr) [](https://packagephobia.now.sh/result?p=unxhr)
_unxhr_ is a tiny wrapper of the built-in `http` client to emulate the browser `XMLHttpRequest` object.
**Important:** This library is a fork of [XMLHttpRequest](https://github.com/driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest).
It was created to be compliant with [XMLHttpRequest Level 2](http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest2/).
## Highlights
- Dependency free
- Asynchronous and synchronous requests
- `GET`, `POST`, `PUT`, and `DELETE` requests
- Binary data using JavaScript typed arrays
- Follows redirects
- Handles `file://` protocol
## Usage
Here's how to include the module in your project and use as the browser-based XHR object.
```js
const XMLHttpRequest = require('unxhr').XMLHttpRequest
const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
```
## Known Issues / Missing Features
For a list of open issues or to report your own visit the [github issues page](https://github.com/Mogztter/unxhr/issues).
* Local file access may have unexpected results for non-UTF8 files
* Synchronous requests don't set headers properly
* Synchronous requests freeze node while waiting for response (But that's what you want, right? Stick with async!).
* Some events are missing, such as abort
* Cookies aren't persisted between requests
* Missing XML support
