Node.js HTTP Client Wrapper

JSON →
library 0.0.5 ·javascript abandoned
verified Jun 17, 2026

This package, `node-http`, provides a minimalistic interface for making HTTP requests within Node.js applications. Originally published over 12 years ago (latest version 0.0.5 from October 2013), it aims to unify the HTTP request process with a chainable API for setting URL, headers, data, and method, alongside event-based callbacks for completion, success, and failure. Due to its age and lack of updates, it is considered abandoned. It exclusively uses CommonJS syntax and does not support modern JavaScript features like Promises or async/await, nor does it officially support contemporary Node.js versions or ESM. Its release cadence was effectively one-off, with no subsequent development. Key differentiators at the time might have been its simplified event-driven approach, but it is now severely outdated compared to actively maintained alternatives like `axios` or Node.js's native `fetch` API.
