This code defines a function called gmGet
which takes in one argument named args
. The function returns a new Promise object that will either resolve or reject depending on the result of an HTTP GET request made using the GM_xmlhttpRequest
method.
The GM_xmlhttpRequest
method is called with an object as its argument. This object is created by merging three objects:
- An object that sets the HTTP method to "GET".
- An object that sets the URL for the request. If the argument passed to
gmGet
contains aurl
property, that value is used. Otherwise, the entire argument is assumed to be the URL and is assigned to theurl
property. - An object that sets event handlers for
onload
,onerror
, andontimeout
.
When the request completes successfully (onload
), the resolve
function of the Promise is called with the response data as its argument. If an error occurs (onerror
or ontimeout
), the reject
function of the Promise is called with the error information as its argument.
In summary, gmGet
is a function that makes an HTTP GET request using the GM_xmlhttpRequest
method and returns a Promise that resolves or rejects based on the success or failure of that request.
