# Request A library for making HTTP requests. # Examples A simple GET request: ```rust use request::Request; // ... start a local server on port 8000 ... let request = Request::get("localhost:8000"); let response = request.send().unwrap(); assert_eq!(response.status, 200); ``` Adding headers: ```rust use request::Request; // ... start a local server on port 8000 ... let response = Request::get("localhost:8000") .header("Authorization", "Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==") .send() .unwrap(); assert_eq!(response.status, 200); ``` A POST request with serialized JSON data. ```rust use request::Request; #[derive(miniserde::Serialize)] struct Example { code: u32, message: String } let data = Example { code: 123, message: "hello".to_string() }; let json = miniserde::json::to_string(&data); let request = Request::post("example.org/api", &json); assert_eq!( format!("{request}"), "POST /api HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: example.org\r\n\r\n{\"code\":123,\"message\":\"hello\"}" ); ```
