I'm scratching a vanilla CesiumJS demo application from the 1.73 branch.
I left untouched the server.cjs file, but I added one custom client implementation file as Apps/myproject/my.js
As I need to GET some JSON responses from an existing API within that demo application, I tried to import the 'https' module as follows:
const https = require('https');
which conducted me to the Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined error.
Then I tried the import way:
import https;
which raised the Uncaught SyntaxError: missing keyword 'from' after import clause error.
(...)
I finally ended up with:
import * as https from 'https';
I'm running out of ideas for the moment.
How could I successfully and efficiently load and execute an http(s) request to actually get a JSON response from a given API within my custom Cesium app?
You can't use the "require" statement in the Cesiumjs client app.
Use this code snippet.
// replace it with your api url
const url = "https://www.google.com";
const promise = Cesium.Resource.fetchJson({
url: url,
queryParameters: {
}
});
promise.then((response) =>{
console.log(response);
}).otherwise(error =>{
console.log(error);
});
