Promise of response with status, ok, url, headers, bodyUsed, text() and json(). HTTP 4xx/5xx do not reject.
Example
js
(async () => {
const response = await fetch("https://example.com", {timeout: 5000});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error("HTTP " + response.status);
console.log(await response.text());
})().catch(error => { console.error(error.message); throw error; });Notes
Text/JSON subset: no AbortSignal, streams, binary bodies or Request objects. Consume the body once. Use an async function in saved scripts; top-level await is unsupported. Also available as require("applesauceos/http").fetch.
