Latest versions of Safari, Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.

See our support policy for more details.

Installation

This package is primarily used in generated code and not meant to be consumed directly by end users.

Key concepts

You can find an explanation of how this repository's code works by going to our architecture overview.

Examples

Examples can be found in the samples folder.

Next steps

Build this library (core-http). For more information on how to build project in this repo, please refer to the Contributing Guide.
The code in samples\node-sample.ts shows how to create a ServiceClient instance with a test TokenCredential implementation and use the client instance to perform a GET operation from the Azure management service endpoint for subscriptions. To run the code, first obtain an access token to the Azure management service.

One easy way to get an access token is using Azure CLI

az login

Select the subscription to use

az account set -s <subscription id>

Obtain an access token

az account get-access-token --resource=https://management.azure.com

NodeJS

Set values of subscriptionId and token variable in samples/node-sample.ts
Change directory to samples folder, compile the TypeScript code, then run the sample

cd samples
tsc node-sample.ts
node node-sample.js

Browser

Set values of subscriptionId and token variable in samples/index.js
Follow the instructions of JavaScript Bundling Guide using Parcel to build and run the code in the browser.
