{"library":"xmlhttprequest-ssl","type":"library","category":null,"description":"This package provides a robust `XMLHttpRequest` implementation for Node.js environments, specifically designed to extend the original `node-XMLHttpRequest` with critical SSL/TLS configuration options. Currently at version 4.0.0, it addresses the need for finer-grained control over secure connections within a Node.js context, a feature often required by client-side libraries like `engine.io-client` when used on the server. The project acts as a maintained fork, incorporating changes that were not merged into its upstream predecessor. Its key differentiator is the direct exposure of Node.js `https` module options (such as `ca`, `cert`, `key`, `rejectUnauthorized`) via the `XMLHttpRequest` constructor, enabling developers to configure client-side certificates, custom CAs, and other security parameters. This allows for traditional AJAX-style request patterns in Node.js while adhering to specific network security requirements. The release cadence appears to be driven by feature needs and updates related to Node.js's network capabilities.","language":"javascript","status":"active","version":"4.0.0","tags":["javascript","xhr","ajax"],"last_verified":"Wed May 27","install":[{"cmd":"npm install xmlhttprequest-ssl","imports":["const { XMLHttpRequest } = require('xmlhttprequest-ssl');","import { XMLHttpRequest } from 'xmlhttprequest-ssl';","const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest({ rejectUnauthorized: false, maxRedirects: 10 });"]},{"cmd":"yarn add xmlhttprequest-ssl","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add xmlhttprequest-ssl","imports":[]}],"homepage":null,"github":"https://github.com/mjwwit/node-XMLHttpRequest","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/xmlhttprequest-ssl","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":{"summary":{"python_range":"18–22","success_rate":0,"avg_install_s":null,"avg_import_s":null,"wheel_type":null},"url":"https://checklist.day/v1/registry/xmlhttprequest-ssl/compatibility"}}
