I have deployed a website and lets say the url is https://google.com

When im testing the javascript on localhost:3000, when I do

fetch("https://google.com/config.json")

it will fetch "localhost:3000/google.com/config.json" instead.

How do i make it so it will fetch "https://google.com/config.json" only(basically removing the localhost so i can test things work on my website without redeploying it?

it shouldn't do that unless you have some strange version of fetch or didn't include the `https://` – Daniel A. White Feb 10 '21 at 02:50
im using a react file and i npm start the file. On my localhost:3000 i console.logged the fetch and gave me localhost:3000/google.com/config.json – TIMMY123 Feb 10 '21 at 02:59
Well, you could use regex to remove it https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11550790/remove-hostname-and-port-from-url-using-regular-expression – Doan Van Thang Feb 10 '21 at 03:18
