http(s) request handler for nodejs and the browser. Supports baseUrls and direct object construction from request results.
npm install oohttpThe provided index.js can be used directly in the browser if it supports ECMAscript 2018 (and higher). For older browser you will need to transpile.

});All requests inherit these default properties at the time the request is done.
If a similar property is set directly on the request handler (either Base or Request), than that value is used instead.
Request.defaults = {
headers: {
'content-type': 'application/json'
},
method: 'GET',
timeout: 60000,
rejectUnauthorized: true,
autoContentLength: false
};
