    In this Hasty Treat, Scott and Wes talk about 8 tricks to try when using the Fetch() API.
    Show Notes 00:23 Welcome
    02:14 1) Stream The Result
    // Create a new TextDecoder instance const decoder = new TextDecoder(); // Make the fetch request fetch('https://api.example.com/streaming-data') .then(response => { // Check if the response is valid if (!response.ok) { throw new Error('Network response was not ok'); } // Stream the response data using a TextDecoder const reader = response.body.getReader(); // Function to read the streamed chunks function read() { return reader.read().then(({ done, value }) => { // Check if the streaming is complete if (done) { console.log('Streaming complete'); return; } // Decode and process the streamed data const decodedData = decoder.decode(value, { stream: true }); console.log(decodedData); // Continue reading the next chunk return read(); }); } // Start reading the chunks return read(); }) .catch(error => { // Handle errors console.log('Error:', error); }); 06:05 2) Download Progress

    09:40 3) Cancel Streams - Abort Controller
    // Create an AbortController instance const controller = new AbortController(); // Set a timeout to abort the request after 5 seconds const timeout = setTimeout(() => { controller.abort(); }, 5000); // Fetch request with the AbortController fetch('https://api.example.com/data', { signal: controller.signal }) 11:32 4) Testing if JSON is returned
    13:18 5) async + await + catch
    const data = await fetch().catch(err => console.log(err));
    14:42 6) to awaited - return error and data at top level
    const [err, data] = collect(fetch()) if(err) // .... await-to-js - npm

    16:58 7) Dev tools - Copy as fetch
    17:54 8) You can programatically create a Request, Response and Headers objects
