fetchival.js 
Makes writing JSON requests with fetch easier
Fetchival is a tiny (0.5kb min/gz) fetch wrapper that can be used in the browser (IE9+) and Node.
Before
// POST /users
fetch('/users', {
method: 'post',
headers: {
'Accept': 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
body: JSON.stringify({
name: 'Typicode',
login: 'typicode',
})
})
.then(function(response) {
if (response.status >= 200 && response.status < 300) {
return response.json()
}
throw new Error(response.statusText)
})
.then(function(json) {
// ...
})After
// POST /users
fetchival('/users').post({
name: 'Typicode',
login: 'typicode'
})
.then(function(json) {
// ...
}).get(), .put(), .patch() and .delete() methods are also available.
