<!-- [![Coverage Status](https://codecov.io/gh/sindresorhus/got/branch/main/graph/badge.svg)](https://codecov.io/gh/sindresorhus/got/branch/main) -->

[![Install size](https://packagephobia.com/badge?p=got)](https://packagephobia.com/result?p=got)

[See how Got compares to other HTTP libraries](#comparison)

---

For browser usage, we recommend [Ky](https://github.com/sindresorhus/ky) by the same people.

---

**Support questions should be asked [here](https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/discussions).**

## Install

```sh
npm install got
```

**Warning:** This package is native [ESM](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Modules) and no longer provides a CommonJS export. If your project uses CommonJS, you'll have to [convert to ESM](https://gist.github.com/sindresorhus/a39789f98801d908bbc7ff3ecc99d99c) or use the [dynamic `import()`](https://v8.dev/features/dynamic-import) function. Please don't open issues for questions regarding CommonJS / ESM. You can also use [Got v11](https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/tree/v11.8.3) instead which is pretty stable. We will backport security fixes to v11 for the foreseeable future.

## Take a peek

**A [quick start](documentation/quick-start.md) guide is available.**

### JSON mode

Got has a dedicated option for handling JSON payload.\
Furthermore, the promise exposes a `.json<T>()` function that returns `Promise<T>`.

```js
import got from 'got';

const {data} = await got.post('https://httpbin.org/anything', {
	json: {
		hello: 'world'
	}
}).json();

console.log(data);
//=> {"hello": "world"}
```

For advanced JSON usage, check out the [`parseJson`](documentation/2-options.md#parsejson) and [`stringifyJson`](documentation/2-options.md#stringifyjson) options.

**For more useful tips like this, visit the [Tips](documentation/tips.md) page.**

\* It's almost API compatible with the browser `fetch` API.\
\*\* Need to switch the protocol manually. Doesn't accept PUSH streams and doesn't reuse HTTP/2 sessions.\
\*\*\* Currently, only `DownloadProgress` event is supported, `UploadProgress` event is not supported.\
¹ Requires Node.js 15.10.0 or above.\
:sparkle: Almost-stable feature, but the API may change. Don't hesitate to try it out!\
:grey_question: Feature in early stage of development. Very experimental.

> Segment is a happy user of Got! Got powers the main backend API that our app talks to. It's used by our in-house RPC client that we use to communicate with all microservices.
>
> — <a href="https://github.com/vadimdemedes">Vadim Demedes</a>

> Antora, a static site generator for creating documentation sites, uses Got to download the UI bundle. In Antora, the UI bundle (aka theme) is maintained as a separate project. That project exports the UI as a zip file we call the UI bundle. The main site generator downloads that UI from a URL using Got and streams it to vinyl-zip to extract the files. Those files go on to be used to create the HTML pages and supporting assets.

> GetVoIP is happily using Got in production. One of the unique capabilities of Got is the ability to handle Unix sockets which enables us to build a full control interfaces for our docker stack.
>
> — <a href="https://github.com/danielkalen">Daniel Kalen</a>

> We're using Got inside of Exoframe to handle all the communication between CLI and server. Exoframe is a self-hosted tool that allows simple one-command deployments using Docker.

> — <a href="https://github.com/rarkins">Rhys Arkins</a>

> Resistbot uses Got to communicate from the API frontend where all correspondence ingresses to the officials lookup database in back.

> — <a href="https://github.com/chris-erickson">Chris Erickson</a>

> Natural Cycles is using Got to communicate with all kinds of 3rd-party REST APIs (over 9000!).

> — <a href="https://github.com/kirillgroshkov">Kirill Groshkov</a>

> Microlink is a cloud browser as an API service that uses Got widely as the main HTTP client, serving ~22M requests a month, every time a network call needs to be performed.

> — <a href="https://github.com/MirzayevFarid">Mirzayev Farid</a>

> Got has been a crucial component of Apify's scraping for years. We use it to extract data from billions of web pages every month, and we really appreciate the powerful API and extensibility, which allowed us to build our own specialized HTTP client on top of Got. The support has always been stellar too.
