In Bun, `fetch()` can send HTTP requests over a [unix domain socket](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_domain_socket) with the `unix` option.
|
|
|
|
```ts fetch-unix.ts icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
|
|
const unix = "/var/run/docker.sock";
|
|
|
|
const response = await fetch("http://localhost/info", { unix });
|
|
|
|
const body = await response.json();
|
|
console.log(body); // { ... }
|
|
```
|
|
|

The `unix` option is the local file path to a unix domain socket. `fetch()` sends the request over that socket instead of a TCP connection. HTTPS is also supported: use the `https://` protocol in the URL instead of `http://`.
|
|
|
|
To send a `POST` request to an API endpoint over a unix domain socket:
|
|
|
|
```ts fetch-unix.ts icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
|
|
const response = await fetch("https://hostname/a/path", {
|
|
unix: "/var/run/path/to/unix.sock",
|
|
method: "POST",
|
|
body: JSON.stringify({ message: "Hello from Bun!" }),
|
|
headers: {
|
|
"Content-Type": "application/json",
|
|
},
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
const body = await response.json();
|
|
```
