how to make a post request in javascript code example

Example 1: javascript send post request

let data = {element: "barium"};

fetch("/post/data/here", {
  method: "POST", 
  body: JSON.stringify(data)
}).then(res => {
  console.log("Request complete! response:", res);
});


// If you are as lazy as me (or just prefer a shortcut/helper):

window.post = function(url, data) {
  return fetch(url, {method: "POST", body: JSON.stringify(data)});
}

// ...

post("post/data/here", {element: "osmium"});

Example 2: create http request javascript

const Http = new XMLHttpRequest();
const url='https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts';
Http.open("GET", url);
Http.send();

Http.onreadystatechange = (e) => {
  console.log(Http.responseText)
}

Example 3: GET req with js

function httpGet(theUrl) {
    var xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xmlHttp.open( "GET", theUrl, false ); // false for synchronous request
    xmlHttp.send( null );
    return xmlHttp.responseText;
}

Example 4: http request javascript

function httpGetAsync(url, callback) {
  var xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
  xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = function() { 
    if (xmlHttp.readyState == 4 && xmlHttp.status == 200)
      callback(xmlHttp.responseText);
  }
  xmlHttp.open("GET", url, true); // true for asynchronous 
  xmlHttp.send(null);
}

Example 5: javascript send post

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open("POST", yourUrl, true);
xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
xhr.send(JSON.stringify({
    value: value
}));

Example 6: post method javascript code

const postData = async ( url = '', data = {})=>{
    console.log(data);
      const response = await fetch(url, {
      method: 'POST', 
      credentials: 'same-origin',
      headers: {
          'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
     // Body data type must match "Content-Type" header        
      body: JSON.stringify(data), 
    });

      try {
        const newData = await response.json();
        console.log(newData);
        return newData;
      }catch(error) {
      console.log("error", error);
      }
  }
