About

A light-weight HTTP client library for Java. It's based on HttpURLConnection in java network package.

Getting Started

Add the following to app's build.gradle file:

dependencies { 
    implementation 'boxresin.library:JavaHTTP:1.1.1'
}

Usage

To send an HTTP request to google.com with GET method, do like below.

HttpResponse response = new HttpRequester()
    .setUrl("https://www.google.com/")
    .setMethod("GET")
    .request();

You can get information of the HTTP response from the HttpResponse object.

int statusCode = response.getStatusCode();
String statusMessage = response.getStatusMessage();
String body = response.getBody();
String headerValue = response.getHeader("header-key");

NOTE: To use this library in Android project, you have to add INTERNET permission to AndroidManifest.xml first. Furthermore, DO NOT call HttpRequester's request method on the UI thread.

• Sending request with POST method

HttpResponse response = new HttpRequester()
    .setUrl("https://www.google.com/")
    .setMethod("POST")
    .addParameter("key", "value")
    .addParameter("key", "value")
    .addParameter("key", "value")
    .addParameter("key", "value")
    .request();

• Sending request with some headers

HttpResponse response = new HttpRequester()
    .setUrl("https://www.google.com/")
    .setMethod("GET")
    .addHeader("key", "value")
    .addHeader("key", "value")
    .addHeader("key", "value")
    .addHeader("key", "value")
    .request();

• URL query string with percent-encoding

// These keys and values will be percent encoded.
Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("q", "java http 특수문자");
params.put("from", "https://github.com/BoxResin/JavaHTTP");

HttpResponse response = new HttpRequester()
        .setUrl("https://www.google.com/", params)
        .setMethod("GET")
        .request();
