# new HttpAdapter(native, config, flavour, aliasopt)
Provides a base implementation for HTTP adapters with methods for CRUD operations, URL construction, and error handling. This class extends the core Adapter class and implements the necessary methods for HTTP communication. Concrete implementations must provide specific HTTP client functionality.
Abstract HTTP adapter for REST API interactions
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Attributes | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
native |
Y
|
The native HTTP client instance |
|
config |
HttpConfig
|
Configuration for the HTTP adapter |
|
flavour |
string
|
The adapter flavor identifier |
|
alias |
string
|
<optional> |
Optional alias for the adapter |
Example
```typescript
// Example implementation with Axios
class AxiosAdapter extends HttpAdapter<AxiosInstance, AxiosRequestConfig> {
constructor(config: HttpConfig) {
super(axios.create(), config, 'axios');
}
async request<V>(details: AxiosRequestConfig): Promise<V> {
const response = await this.native.request(details);
return response.data;
}
// Implement other abstract methods...
}
