API Tester
A lightweight, dependency-free HTTP client for OpenClaw.
Usage
Basic GET Request
const api = require('skills/api-tester');
const result = await api.request('GET', 'https://api.example.com/data');
console.log(result.status, result.data);
POST Request with JSON Body
const api = require('skills/api-tester');
const payload = { key: 'value' };
const headers = { 'Authorization': 'Bearer <token>' };
const result = await api.request('POST', 'https://api.example.com/submit', headers, payload);
Return Format
The request function returns a Promise resolving to:
{
status: 200, // HTTP status code
headers: { ... }, // Response headers
data: { ... }, // Parsed JSON body (if applicable) or raw string
raw: "...", // Raw response body string
error: "..." // Error message if request failed (network error, timeout)
}
Features
- Zero dependencies: Uses Node.js built-in
httpandhttpsmodules. - Auto-JSON: Automatically stringifies request body and parses response body if Content-Type matches.
- Timeout support: Default 10s timeout, configurable.
- Error handling: Returns structured error object instead of throwing, ensuring safe execution.
