Simple HTTP Wrapper (SimpleHTTPWrapper)

Author: LightLibs
License: MIT

This library provides a simple HTTP wrapper for making GET, POST, and other requests. It includes classes and methods to perform HTTP requests and handle the response.

HttpResponse

The HttpResponse class represents the response from an HTTP request. It contains the following methods:

• getStatusCode(): Returns the status code of the response.
• getHeaders(): Returns the headers of the response.
• getBody(): Returns the body (response data) of the response.

HttpWrapper

The HttpWrapper class provides static methods to make HTTP requests. It includes the following methods (and more):

• get(String urlStr, String[] headers): Performs a GET request to the specified URL with optional headers and returns a SimpleHttpResponse.
• post(String urlStr, String[] headers, String postData): Performs a POST request to the specified URL with optionalheaders and post data, and returns a SimpleHttpResponse.
• performRequest(SupportedHttpMethod method, String urlStr, String[] headers, String postData): Performs an HTTP request with the specified method (GET or POST), URL, headers, and post data. Returns a SimpleHttpResponse.
• performRequestUnsupported(String method, String urlStr, String[] headers, String postData): Discouraged method for performing an HTTP request with an unsupported method. Returns a SimpleHttpResponse.

HttpMethod

The HttpMethod enum defines the supported HTTP methods. It includes the following methods:

• getMethodId(): Returns the raw method name as a String.

Usage

To use the HttpWrapper class, import the com.github.lightlibs.simplehttpwrapper package and call the desired static methods. For example:

importcom.tcoded.lightlibs.simplehttpwrapper.HttpHeader;
importcom.tcoded.lightlibs.simplehttpwrapper.HttpResponse;
importcom.tcoded.lightlibs.simplehttpwrapper.HttpWrapper;
classExample {
publicstaticvoidmain(String[] args) {
// Perform a GET requestHttpResponseresponse = HttpWrapper.get("https://example.com", null);
intstatusCode = response.getStatusCode();
Stringdata = response.getBody();
// Perform a POST request with headers and post dataString[] headers = {"Content-Type: application/json"};
StringpostData = "{ \"name\": \"John\", \"age\": 30 }";
// Make the requestHttpResponseresponse = HttpWrapper.post("https://example.com", headers, postData);
// Alternative request which doesn't throw an IOExceptionHttpResponseresponseOrNull = HttpWrapper.postOrNull("https://example.com", headers, postData);
// Read the response from the serverintstatusCode = response.getStatusCode();
List<HttpHeader> responseHeaders = response.getHeaders();
StringresponseBody = response.getBody();
}
}
