RequestError: self-signed certificate in certificate chain (Not an issue with axios )

[shaisha05]

We are trying to migrate from Axios. For development environment, we used to set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED='0' for self signed certificates. But this is not working for GOT.

As a workaround on local system, I can use below. But I need some solution which does not require additional conditions in code for production.
await got.get(${myendpoint},
{
https: {
rejectUnauthorized: false
},
responseType: 'json'
} as any)

Please suggest.

The type cast shouldn't be necessary - the https.rejectUnauthorized option is fully supported in Got's types. You can just use:

await got.get(`${myendpoint}`, {
	https: {
		rejectUnauthorized: false
	},
	responseType: 'json'
})

For handling dev vs production, you could set this option conditionally based on an enviroment variable like NODE_ENV, so you don't have to worry about it accidently being set in production.
