So I want to load an image from an external URL.

var https = require('node:https');

export const loadImageFromUrl = (url: string) => {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    try {
      https.request(url, function (response: any) {
        resolve(response);
      });
    } catch (err) {
      reject(err);
    }
  });
};

For example, the image is from https://en.pimg.jp/054/313/779/1/54313779.jpg. When I run the code, it gives me this error:

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:443

This is weird, the URL is not from my local computer, why does https search from my local address?

You can try this code. It should work.

You can have a look at the live demo here

const https = require("https");
const { URL } = require("url");

const loadImageFromUrl = (url) => {
  const urlParams = new URL(url);
  const hostname = urlParams.hostname;
  const path = urlParams.pathname;

  const options = {
    hostname: hostname,
    port: 443,
    path: path,
    method: "GET",
  };

  const request = https.request(options, (res) => {
    res.on("data", (data) => {
      console.log(`response data: ${data}`);
    });
  });

  request.on("error", (error) => {
    console.error(`Error on Get Request --> ${error}`);
  });
  request.end();
};

loadImageFromUrl("https://en.pimg.jp/054/313/779/1/54313779.jpg");
