HttPizza
Lightweight HTTP client using HttpURLConnection under the hood. The primary use case is for apps, libraries and SDKs which don't need/want all the features ( and methods!) OkHttp provides.
It has the same limitations as HttpURLConnection like not supporting the PATCH method and not permitting request body in DELETE requests.
Usage
Add the library as a dependency to your build.gradle to automatically download it from jcenter.
compile 'sexy.code:httpizza:0.3.0'We also maintain a changelog.
Create a client
HttPizza client = new HttPizza();
GET request
Request request = client.newRequest()
.url(url)
.get()
.build();
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
POST request
Request request = client.newRequest()
.url(url)
.post(RequestBody.create(MediaType.parse("text/plain; charset=utf-8"), "requestBody"))
.build();
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
Async GET request
Request request = client.newRequest()
.url(url)
.build();
client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() {
@Override
public void onResponse(Response response) {
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
Timber.d("Body: %s", response.body().string());
}
else {
Timber.d("Status code: %s", response.code());
}
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Throwable t) {
Timber.e(t.getMessage());
}
}
);
POST request with form parameters
RequestBody formBody = new FormBody.Builder()
.add("search", "Airplane!")
.build();
Request request = client.newRequest()
.url(url)
.post(formBody)
.build();
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
Credits
HttPizza reuses parts of OkHttp and is largely based on lighthttp.
It also draws inspiration from OkHttp and Retrofit APIs.
