module io.inverno.mod.http.client

The Inverno framework HTTP client module provides a HTTP1.x and HTTP/2 client.

It defines the following sockets:

httpClientConfiguration
the HTTP client module configuration
netService (required)
the Net service used to create the HTTP client
resourceService (required)
the resource service used to load resources required by the HTTP client (eg. key store...)
reactor (required)
the reactor used in the connection pool
headerCodecs
custom header codecs
parameterConverter
override the default parameter converter used in Parameter instances to convert their values

It exposes the following beans:

configuration
the HTTP client module configuration
httpClient
the HTTP client

A simple HTTP client using the default configuration and sending a GET request can be created as follows: 


 NetService netService = null;
 Reactor reactor = null;
 ResourceService resourceService = null;
 
 Client client = Application.with(new Client.Builder(netService, reactor, resourceService)
	.configuration(HttpClientConfigurationLoader.load(conf -> conf.http_protocol_versions(Set.of(HttpVersion.HTTP_2_0))))
 ).run();
 
 Endpoint<ExchangeContext> endpoint = client.httpClient().endpoint("example.org", 80).build();
 
 String responseBody = endpoint
 	.exchange(Method.GET, "/")
 	.flatMap(Exchange::response)
 	.flatMapMany(response -> response.body().string().stream())
 	.reduceWith(() -> new StringBuilder(), (acc, chunk) -> acc.append(chunk))
 	.map(StringBuilder::toString).block();
