Deno gemini library

deno-gemini

Client

The client was inspired a lot by modern fetch API. It is really nice to use:

import gfetch from "https://deno.land/x/gemproto/client.ts";

// Will automatically follow redirects, and throw errors on non-2X or 3X codes.
const response = await gfetch("gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space");
const text = await response.text();

console.log(text); // prints "Project Gemini" homepage

Make sure to run with --unsafely-ignore-certificate-errors flag!

Why is --unsafely-ignore-certificate-errors needed?

Deno currently throws an error if the certificate is not trusted by a root authority. There is currently no way to override this with code, so the flag is needed to allow Deno to connect to servers with self-signed certificates.

You can omit the flag if you either:

• are only connecting to servers with CA signed certificates
• or know your server's certificate upfront (pass in options via cert)
