Do you plan to support node.js?

[ncalexan]

Just FYI, for others finding that Node.js is not supported, you'll get errors like:

ReferenceError: XMLHttpRequest is not defined

to tell you that Node.js isn't supported.

Workaround using: https://www.npmjs.com/package/xhr2

(set! js/XMLHttpRequest (nodejs/require "xhr2"))

(async/go                                                  
  (let [example (async/<! (http/get "http://example.com"))]   
    (println example)))

Hey, this is probably a dumb question, but how can I add this library to a lein project? I tried to put [xh2r "0.1.4"] under the vector in project.clj :npm {:dependencies []}, but I am getting this error:

@JimTheMan you might just need run lein npm install as per this page.

@JimTheMan, you swapped the last two letters of the library's name. Try using [xhr2 "0.1.4"] as the dependency.

Hello folks, bumped into this as well!

I saw that there are many forks fixing this, maybe we can think about merging one of theem?

For shadow-cljs, this is what I've got working:

(ns your-name.space
  (:require ["xhr2" :as xhr2]))

(set! js/XMLHttpRequest xhr2)

[wiseman]

For those using xhr2, how have you stopped it from displaying the "Discarding entity body for GET requests" warning when used from cljs-http?

I got sick of this and found another library

(require '[xmlhttprequest :refer [XMLHttpRequest]])
(set! js/XMLHttpRequest XMLHttpRequest)```

Hey all!

Funny that I just stumbled upon this post again! I was able to get the request working with the same two lines above here and adding'xhr2': '0.2.0' to my build.gradle file.

I am also seeing this odd, "Discarding entity body for GET requests" message. Does anyone have any more info on this?

[loganpowell]

I'm also getting Discarding entity body for GET requests once I've implemented the trick from @arichiardi

(set! js/XMLHttpRequest xhr2)

I did find a related issue, but how would I hack into cljs-http to apply it?
