Dialed

A modern, ergonomic HTTP client for Ruby built on top of async-http. Designed to embody the principle of least surprise.

Currently in alpha, but supports the following:

  • HTTP/2
  • HTTP proxying via CONNECT
  • Persistent connections
  • Concurrent requests

And partially supports (still WIP):

  • HTTP/1.X
  • Automatic connection pooling

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

bundle add dialed

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

gem install dialed

Usage

client = Dialed::Client.build do |c|
  c.version = 'HTTP/2'
  c.host = 'httpbin.org'
  c.port = 443
  c.proxy do |p|
    p.host = 'localhost'
    p.port = '8888'
  end
end

# Synchronous usage:
# 
result = client.get('/get')
puts result


# Asynchronous usage:
# 
# Supports all the primitives of the wonderful async gem, and also includes a helper
# for less boilerplate:
#
task = client.async do |async_client, yielder|
  
  10.times do
    yielder << async_client.get('/get')
  end
end

# the task produces an Enumerator::Lazy instance
result_enum = task.wait

result_enum.each do |result|
  puts result
end

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
