Request Package Deprecated - Use THIS Instead!

The npm request package is deprecated, watch this video to learn what that means and what you can do about it.

thank you so much Ian! you're amazing.

Thanks so much Ian. Btw I've enrolled in your CodeWithNode free course in Udemy. Looking forward to learn from you :)

Please update the Github repo referred in the course so that the students can have both the require and axios versions.

Thanks Ian. Very helpful. I am trying to get to grips with formatting my code and getting comfortable with the structure of what you have shown.
Any more help would be appreciated
Cheers
David

Hey Ian, I've been working through Colt's bootcamp – following along with your notes as well – and I have a question...I've been using Goorm, but I don't like using a web browser to work through my code, and I see here that you are doing the same thing we're doing but with what looks like a VS Code desktop app...I have VS Code downloaded and I like to use it...could you show us how to set that up so that I can use it maybe instead of Goorm? Thanks

Hi Ian Thanks for the new update, you have used double parentheses and the second one to invoke async function... is it mandatory to do that whenever using async function.... I am new at async function

shift + tab to reverse the indentation

Which dark theme are you using in VS code?

@Ian Schoonover .. I get an error as


throw err;
^

Error: Cannot find module
at
at Function.Module._load
at [as runMain]
at {
code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
requireStack: []
}

when I import request...May I know what issue do I face while importing request?

Sort of a tangent, but how did you setup your terminal in VS code to look like that? I like the way your's looks - much cleaner and multi-colored, whereas mine just looks boring. :) Thanks!

hello Ian, can you please explain me what is meant by promises that you were saying while explaining AXIOS in this video?

[blackraven]

Hey so I am kind of confused as to how I should I continue on with the rest of this section (I am assuming that this package will be used instead of request for the upcoming projects) or is this video only supposed to act as a replacement for lecture 284 and the rest of section 27 is carried on the same except using this package instead of request?

I'd been using fetch. Is axios better?

[ashmitadatiya]

Why you don't use Google as your search engine, is their any particular reason for this. If so, please kindly let us know.

[merwinsamuel]

I used the Request Package it is giving me the result correct. I know it is deprecated but still can I use it?

[codeblockdev]

Why don't you simply update the course? It's really frustrating when some code breaks and we are told to watch a separate video just to fix that it really confuses a lot and make hard to progress with the course plz update some of the course lectures

[mendelg]

was here first. Please heart (i was talking to ian)

[vivekgautam]

very bad explanation in udemy under api section everything is outdated!! waste of time

[basselturky]

So, I should watch the whole 28min because you are too lazy to point out where you actually talking about Request Package Deprecated if you did talk... dislike.
