const https = require('https');
const httpsAgent = new https.Agent({
      rejectUnauthorized: false,
});
// Allow SELF_SIGNED_CERT, aka set rejectUnauthorized: false
let options = {
    agent: httpsAgent
}
let address = "10.10.10.1";
let path = "/api/v1/foo";
let url = new URL(`https://${address}${path}`);
url.username = "joe";
url.password = "password123";

let apiCall = new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
    var data = '';
    https.get(url, options, res => {
        res.on('data', function (chunk){ data += chunk }) 
        res.on('end', function () {
           resolve(data);
        })
    }).on('error', function (e) {
      reject(e);
    });
});

try {
    let result = await apiCall;
} catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
} finally {
    console.log('We do cleanup here');
}
