Executing HTTP requests one after another after successful response - node.js

Question

I am executing the following code to run HTTP POST request in Node.js application and it is working fine.
var http = require('http');
var request = require('request');
http.createServer(function handler(req, res) {
//res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
//res.end('Hello World\n');
var postData = {
'name': 'in2_instance',
'format': 'json',
'auto.offset.reset': 'earliest',
}
var options = {
url: 'http://localhost:8082/consumers/my_test_consumer',
method: 'POST',
body : JSON.stringify(postData),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/vnd.kafka.v2+json'
},
}
request(options, function(error, response, body){
if(error) console.log(error);
else {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response));
// Upon Successful response, I need to execute another HTTP POST request here.
}
});
}).listen(1337, '127.0.0.1');
console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:1337/');
My question is, I need to execute 1 more HTTP POST request and 1 more HTTP GET request following with the each successful response. For example, from the above code, i need to execute another HTTP POST request upon successful response of the existing.
How can I call the other set of HTTP request one after another based on the successful response of the above?
Please advise or share me the reference.

You can do it in the same way as you are doing it for the first request.
var http = require('http');
var request = require('request');
http.createServer(function handler(req, res) {
//res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
//res.end('Hello World\n');
var postData = {
'name': 'in2_instance',
'format': 'json',
'auto.offset.reset': 'earliest',
}
var options = {
url: 'http://localhost:8082/consumers/my_test_consumer',
method: 'POST',
body : JSON.stringify(postData),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/vnd.kafka.v2+json'
},
}
request(options, function(error, response, body){
if(error) console.log(error);
else {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response));
var options1 = {
url: '<new URL>',
method: 'POST',
body : JSON.stringify(postData),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/vnd.kafka.v2+json'
},
}
request(options1, function(error, response2, body) {
if(error) console.log(error);
else {
// Your GET request call
}
}
}
});
}).listen(1337, '127.0.0.1');
console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:1337/');
