Kommunicate

By Lightning Kite

A library combining coroutines and io so that you can make HTTP requests and use WebSockets!

Discovery Guide

You can do everything through the object HttpClient.

All of those functions can throw:

• ConnectionException when there's an issue with reaching the host
• HttpException if the resulting response is NOT a 2xx response code

Some examples:

//Let's grab a list of posts
val posts: String = HttpClient.callString(
    url = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts",
    method = HttpMethod.GET
)

//Let's do a post!
HttpClient.callString(
    url = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts",
    method = HttpMethod.POST,
    body = HttpBody.string(
        contentType = "application/json",
        value = """{ "id":0, "userId":2, "title": "Test Title", "body": "Post's body" }"""
    )
)
