Class Description

Subclass of RequestOptions, with default values.

Default values:

• method: RequestMethod.Get
• headers: empty Headers object

This class could be extended and bound to the RequestOptions class when configuring an Injector, in order to override the default options used by Http to create and send Requests.

Example (live demo)

import {provide} from '@angular/core';
import {bootstrap} from '@angular/platform-browser/browser';
import {HTTP_PROVIDERS, Http, BaseRequestOptions, RequestOptions} from '@angular/http';
import {App} from './myapp';

class MyOptions extends BaseRequestOptions {
  search: string = 'coreTeam=true';
}

bootstrap(App, [HTTP_PROVIDERS, {provide: RequestOptions, useClass: MyOptions}]);

The options could also be extended when manually creating a Request object.

Example (live demo)

import {BaseRequestOptions, Request, RequestMethod} from '@angular/http';

var options = new BaseRequestOptions();
var req = new Request(options.merge({
  method: RequestMethod.Post,
  url: 'https://google.com'
}));
console.log('req.method:', RequestMethod[req.method]); // Post
console.log('options.url:', options.url); // null
console.log('req.url:', req.url); // https://google.com
