HttpRequester

Small library that helps make HTTP requests on an ESP32 device.

Originally written to help reduce boiler plate code around making HTTP requests for my IOT projects using a Raspberry Pi Pico w.

Usage:

  • clone the repo to the Arduino libraries directory

cd C:\Users\<username>\Documents\libraries

git clone https://github.com/Timmoth/HttpRequester.git

  • Add Arduino pico to your board manager (file->preferences->additional board manager urls) paste the following url

https://github.com/earlephilhower/arduino-pico/releases/download/global/package_rp2040_index.json

  • Include library in your project
#include <HttpRequester.h>
  • Connect to your WiFi network
 WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
WiFiMulti.addAP(ssid, password);
  while ((WiFiMulti.run() != WL_CONNECTED)) {
    Serial.println("connecting...");
  }
  • make request
  HttpResponse* postResponse = requester->Post("/api/user", "{\"name\":\"Tim\"}", "application/json");
  if (postResponse == NULL || !postResponse->IsSuccess()) {
    return;
  }

  Serial.println("Response: " + postResponse->Body);

Tests:

Tests are written using ElkTest see project readme for more instructions.

Upcoming:

  • Accomadate HTTP requests
  • Investigate validating SSL certs
  • Improve documentation
  • Add more tests
  • Make available to the Arduino IDE Library manager
