ApiClient

Interface for configuring the API client used by Remult to perform HTTP calls to the backend.

httpClient

The HTTP client to use when making API calls. It can be set to a function with the fetch signature or an object that has post, put, delete, and get methods. This can also be used to inject logic before each HTTP call, such as adding authorization headers.

example:

// Using Axios
remult.apiClient.httpClient = axios;

example:

// Using Angular HttpClient
remult.apiClient.httpClient = httpClient;

see:

If you want to add headers using angular httpClient, see: https://medium.com/angular-shots/shot-3-how-to-add-http-headers-to-every-request-in-angular-fab3d10edc26

example:

// Using fetch (default)
remult.apiClient.httpClient = fetch;

example:

// Adding bearer token authorization
remult.apiClient.httpClient = (input: RequestInfo | URL, init?: RequestInit) => {
  return fetch(input, {
    ...init,
    headers: {
      authorization: 'Bearer ' + sessionStorage.sessionId,
    },
    cache: 'no-store',
  });
};

url

The base URL for making API calls. By default, it is set to '/api'. It can be modified to be relative or to use a different domain for the server.

example:

// Relative URL
remult.apiClient.url = './api';

example:

// Different domain
remult.apiClient.url = 'https://example.com/api';

subscriptionClient

The subscription client used for real-time data updates. By default, it is set to use Server-Sent Events (SSE). It can be set to any subscription provider as illustrated in the Remult tutorial for deploying to a serverless environment.

wrapMessageHandling

A function that wraps message handling for subscriptions. This is useful for executing some code before or after any message arrives from the subscription. For example, in Angular, to refresh a specific part of the UI, you can call the NgZone run method at this time.

example:

// Angular example
import { Component, NgZone } from '@angular/core';
import { remult } from "remult";

export class AppComponent {
  constructor(zone: NgZone) {
    remult.apiClient.wrapMessageHandling = handler => zone.run(() => handler());
  }
}

Arguments:
