尝试使用简单的http。Get (options, callback)函数在node.js:

var http = require('http');
var options = {
  host: 'www.google.com',
  path: '/index.html'
};

var req = http.get(options, function(res) {
  console.log('STATUS: ' + res.statusCode);
  console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(res.headers));

  // Buffer the body entirely for processing as a whole.
  var bodyChunks = [];
  res.on('data', function(chunk) {
    // You can process streamed parts here...
    bodyChunks.push(chunk);
  }).on('end', function() {
    var body = Buffer.concat(bodyChunks);
    console.log('BODY: ' + body);
    // ...and/or process the entire body here.
  })
});

req.on('error', function(e) {
  console.log('ERROR: ' + e.message);
});

还有一个通用的http。请求(选项，回调)函数，允许您指定请求方法和其他请求细节。

如果你只需要简单的get请求，不需要支持任何其他HTTP方法，看看:

var get = require('simple-get');

get('http://example.com', function (err, res) {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log(res.statusCode); // 200
  res.pipe(process.stdout); // `res` is a stream
});

Request和Superagent是非常好的库。

注意:请求已弃用，使用风险自负!

使用要求:

var request=require('request');

request.get('https://someplace',options,function(err,res,body){
  if(err) //TODO: handle err
  if(res.statusCode === 200 ) //etc
  //TODO Do something with response
});

使用reqclient:不是为脚本目的设计的 像request或者其他库。Reqclient允许在构造函数中使用 在需要重用时指定许多有用的配置 配置一次又一次:基本URL，头，认证选项， 日志记录选项，缓存等。也有有用的功能，如 查询和URL解析，自动查询编码和JSON解析等。

使用库的最佳方法是创建一个模块来导出对象 指向API和需要连接的必要配置:

模块client.js:

let RequestClient = require("reqclient").RequestClient

let client = new RequestClient({
  baseUrl: "https://myapp.com/api/v1",
  cache: true,
  auth: {user: "admin", pass: "secret"}
})

module.exports = client

在你需要使用API的控制器中，像这样使用:

let client = require('client')
//let router = ...

router.get('/dashboard', (req, res) => {
  // Simple GET with Promise handling to https://myapp.com/api/v1/reports/clients
  client.get("reports/clients")
    .then(response => {
       console.log("Report for client", response.userId)  // REST responses are parsed as JSON objects
       res.render('clients/dashboard', {title: 'Customer Report', report: response})
    })
    .catch(err => {
      console.error("Ups!", err)
      res.status(400).render('error', {error: err})
    })
})

router.get('/orders', (req, res, next) => {
  // GET with query (https://myapp.com/api/v1/orders?state=open&limit=10)
  client.get({"uri": "orders", "query": {"state": "open", "limit": 10}})
    .then(orders => {
      res.render('clients/orders', {title: 'Customer Orders', orders: orders})
    })
    .catch(err => someErrorHandler(req, res, next))
})

router.delete('/orders', (req, res, next) => {
  // DELETE with params (https://myapp.com/api/v1/orders/1234/A987)
  client.delete({
    "uri": "orders/{client}/{id}",
    "params": {"client": "A987", "id": 1234}
  })
  .then(resp => res.status(204))
  .catch(err => someErrorHandler(req, res, next))
})

Reqclient支持许多特性，但是它有一些其他特性不支持的特性 库:OAuth2集成和记录器集成 使用cURL语法，并且总是返回本机Promise对象。

看看shred。它是由spire创建和维护的节点HTTP客户端。io处理重定向、会话和JSON响应。它非常适合与rest api交互。详见这篇博客文章。

## you can use request module and promise in express to make any request ##
const promise                       = require('promise');
const requestModule                 = require('request');

const curlRequest =(requestOption) =>{
    return new Promise((resolve, reject)=> {
        requestModule(requestOption, (error, response, body) => {
            try {
                if (error) {
                    throw error;
                }
                if (body) {

                    try {
                        body = (body) ? JSON.parse(body) : body;
                        resolve(body);
                    }catch(error){
                        resolve(body);
                    }

                } else {

                    throw new Error('something wrong');
                }
            } catch (error) {

                reject(error);
            }
        })
    })
};

const option = {
    url : uri,
    method : "GET",
    headers : {

    }
};


curlRequest(option).then((data)=>{
}).catch((err)=>{
})
