This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since March 2017.
* Some parts of this feature may have varying levels of support.
The Response interface of the Fetch API represents the response to a request.
You can create a new Response object using the Response() constructor, but you are more likely to encounter a Response object being returned as the result of another API operation—for example, a service worker FetchEvent.respondWith, or a simple fetch().
Response.body Read only-
A ReadableStream of the body contents.
Response.bodyUsed Read only-
Stores a boolean value that declares whether the body has been used in a response yet.
Response.headers Read only-
The Headers object associated with the response.
Response.ok Read only-
A boolean indicating whether the response was successful (status in the range 200 – 299) or not.
Response.redirected Read only-
Indicates whether or not the response is the result of a redirect (that is, its URL list has more than one entry).
Response.status Read only-
The status code of the response. (This will be 200 for a success).
Response.statusText Read only-
The status message corresponding to the status code. (e.g., OK for 200).
Response.type Read only-
The type of the response (e.g., basic, cors).
Response.url Read only-
The URL of the response.
In our basic fetch example (run example live) we use a simple fetch() call to grab an image and display it in an <img> element.
The fetch() call returns a promise, which resolves to the Response object associated with the resource fetch operation.
You'll notice that since we are requesting an image, we need to run Response.blob to give the response its correct MIME type.
js
const image = document.querySelector(".my-image");
fetch("flowers.jpg")
.then((response) => {
if (!response.ok) {
throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
}
return response.blob();
})
.then((blob) => {
const objectURL = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
image.src = objectURL;
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error("Error fetching the image:", error);
});
You can also use the Response() constructor to create your own custom Response object:
js
const response = new Response();
Here we call a PHP program file that generates a JSON string, displaying the result as a JSON value.
js
// Function to fetch JSON using PHP
const getJSON = async () => {
// Generate the Response object
const response = await fetch("getJSON.php");
if (response.ok) {
// Get JSON value from the response body
return response.json();
}
throw new Error("*** PHP file not found");
};
// Call the function and output value or error message to console
getJSON()
.then((result) => console.log(result))
.catch((error) => console.error(error));
