fetch polyfill for tauri

After ui is built, go to the ui/assets/index.[hash].js file and add this code at the top of the file:

export async function fetch(input, init) {
    const fetch = window.__TAURI__.http.fetch

    const params = {
        ...init,
        body: {
            type: 'Text',
            payload: init.body
        }
    };

    if(params.body.payload instanceof URLSearchParams) {
        params.body.payload = params.body.payload.toString()
    }

    if(init.method === 'GET' || 'body' in init === false || init.body === null) {
        delete params.body
    }

    const res = await fetch(input.toString(), params)

    return new Response(JSON.stringify(res.data), res)
}

Using web-standalone

git clone https://github.com/flawiddsouza/Restfox
cd packages/ui
npm i
npm run build-web-standalone
cd ../web-standalone
npm i
npm start

By default npm start will run Restfox at port 4004. You can override the port by passing port like so PORT=5040 npm start.
