An open souce library that provide a Http client DSL based on Free monads of ScalaZ. It´s using also Finagle toolkit to provide the http client engine.

Create your own http client

Using the DSL we can structure our http client with this options.

• We can make http and https request.
• We can get response body, response status, and check this last one with the code we pass.
• Also we have implemented a retry polciy where you can pass the number of retries and backoff between every retry.

        Get.to("http://localhost:8500/home/foo")
          .resultAsString ::
