Android-WebRequest

Fluent interface for easy HTTP requests to web servers (GET, POST, PUT or DELETE)

Installation

• Include one of the JARs in your libs folder
• or
• Copy the Java package to your project's source folder
• or
• Create a new library project from this repository and reference it in your project

Usage

Asynchronously (with callbacks)

new WebRequest().get().to("http://www.example.com/page.html").executeAsync(new WebRequest.Callback() {
	public void onSuccess(String responseText) {
		// do something
	}
	public void onError() {
		// do something
	}
});

Synchronously (with return value)

String response = new WebRequest().get().to("http://www.example.com/page.html").executeSync();
// do something

Configuration

Use any of the following variations (in combination) in order to adjust the instance's behaviour to your needs.

Using another request method

Instead of get(), use either post(), put() or delete().

Using HTTP Basic Auth

Example: auth("my_username", "my_password")

Changing the User-Agent header

Example: asUserAgent("MyClient / 1.0")

Changing the timeout (connection / socket)

Example: withTimeout(4000, 6000)

Changing the charset

Example: withCharset("iso-8859-1")

Requesting a GZIP-compressed response

askForGzip(true)

Adding parameters

Example: addParam("my_key", "my_value")

Retrieving the result synchronously (without a callback)

Call executeSync() instead of executeAsync() and process the returned string.
