Subclasses

Description

This class is based on the RequestInit description in the Fetch Spec.

All values are null by default. Typical defaults can be found in the BaseRequestOptions class, which sub-classes RequestOptions.

import {RequestOptions, Request, RequestMethod} from '@angular/http'; const options = new RequestOptions({ method: RequestMethod.Post, url: 'https://google.com' }); const req = new Request(options); console.log('req.method:', RequestMethod[req.method]); // Post console.log('options.url:', options.url); // https://google.com
      
      import {RequestOptions, Request, RequestMethod} from '@angular/http';

const options = new RequestOptions({
  method: RequestMethod.Post,
  url: 'https://google.com'
});
const req = new Request(options);
console.log('req.method:', RequestMethod[req.method]); // Post
console.log('options.url:', options.url); // https://google.com

Methods

Creates a copy of the RequestOptions instance, using the optional input as values to override existing values. This method will not change the values of the instance on which it is being called.

      
      merge(options?: RequestOptionsArgs): RequestOptions
    
Parameters
options RequestOptionsArgs

Optional. Default is undefined.

Returns

RequestOptions

Note that headers and search will override existing values completely if present in the options object. If these values should be merged, it should be done prior to calling merge on the RequestOptions instance.

import {RequestOptions, Request, RequestMethod} from '@angular/http'; const options = new RequestOptions({ method: RequestMethod.Post }); const req = new Request(options.merge({ url: 'https://google.com' })); console.log('req.method:', RequestMethod[req.method]); // Post console.log('options.url:', options.url); // null console.log('req.url:', req.url); // https://google.com

}));
