Pure JavaScript Send POST Data Without a Form

2楼-- · 2020-01-24 07:00

The [new-ish at the time of writing in 2017] Fetch API is intented to make GET requests easy, but it is able to POST as well.

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"});

navigator.sendBeacon()

If you simply need to POST data and do not require a response from the server, the shortest solution would be to use navigator.sendBeacon():

const data = JSON.stringify({
  example_1: 123,
  example_2: 'Hello, world!',
});

navigator.sendBeacon('example.php', data);

There is an easy method to wrap your data and send it to server as if you were sending an HTML form using POST. you can do that using FormData object as following:

data = new FormData()
data.set('Foo',1)
data.set('Bar','boo')

let request = new XMLHttpRequest();
request.open("POST", 'some_url/', true);
request.send(data)

now you can handle the data on the server-side just like the way you deal with reugular HTML Forms.

Additional Info

It is advised that you must not set Content-Type header when sending FormData since the browser will take care of that.

You can send it and insert the data to the body:

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

By the way, for get request:

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
// we defined the xhr

xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
    if (this.readyState != 4) return;

    if (this.status == 200) {
        var data = JSON.parse(this.responseText);

        // we get the returned data
    }

    // end of state change: it can be after some time (async)
};

xhr.open('GET', yourUrl, true);
xhr.send();

Also, RESTful lets you get data back from a POST request.

JS (put in static/hello.html to serve via Python):

<html><head><meta charset="utf-8"/></head><body>
Hello.

<script>

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open("POST", "/postman", true);
xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
xhr.send(JSON.stringify({
    value: 'value'
}));
xhr.onload = function() {
  console.log("HELLO")
  console.log(this.responseText);
  var data = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
  console.log(data);
}

</script></body></html>

Python server (for testing):

import time, threading, socket, SocketServer, BaseHTTPServer
import os, traceback, sys, json


log_lock           = threading.Lock()
log_next_thread_id = 0

# Local log functiondef


def Log(module, msg):
    with log_lock:
        thread = threading.current_thread().__name__
        msg    = "%s %s: %s" % (module, thread, msg)
        sys.stderr.write(msg + '\n')

def Log_Traceback():
    t   = traceback.format_exc().strip('\n').split('\n')
    if ', in ' in t[-3]:
        t[-3] = t[-3].replace(', in','\n***\n***  In') + '(...):'
        t[-2] += '\n***'
    err = '\n***  '.join(t[-3:]).replace('"','').replace(' File ', '')
    err = err.replace(', line',':')
    Log("Traceback", '\n'.join(t[:-3]) + '\n\n\n***\n*** ' + err + '\n***\n\n')

    os._exit(4)

def Set_Thread_Label(s):
    global log_next_thread_id
    with log_lock:
        threading.current_thread().__name__ = "%d%s" \
            % (log_next_thread_id, s)
        log_next_thread_id += 1


class Handler(BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler):

    def do_GET(self):

        try:

            self.send_header("Content-type", "text/html")
            self.end_headers()
            self.wfile.write(data)
        except:

    def do_POST(self):
        Set_Thread_Label(self.path + "[post]")
        try:
            length = int(self.headers.getheader('content-length'))
            req   = self.rfile.read(length)
            Log("HTTP", "PATH='%s'" % self.path)
            Log("URL", "request data = %s" % req)
            req = json.loads(req)
            response = {'req': req}
            response = json.dumps(response)
            Log("URL", "response data = %s" % response)

            self.send_header("Content-type", "application/json")
            self.send_header("content-length", str(len(response)))

You can use the XMLHttpRequest object as follows:

xhr.open("POST", url, true);
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8");
xhr.send(someStuff);

That code would post someStuff to url. Just make sure that when you create your XMLHttpRequest object, it will be cross-browser compatible. There are endless examples out there of how to do that.
