[![Docs.rs](https://docs.rs/http_req/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/http_req/0.13.3/http_req/)

Simple and lightweight HTTP client with built-in HTTPS support.

- HTTP and HTTPS via [rust-native-tls](https://github.com/sfackler/rust-native-tls) (or optionally [rus-tls](https://crates.io/crates/rustls))
- Small binary size (0.7 MB for a basic GET request in the default configuratio)
- Minimal number of dependencies

## Requirements

http_req by default uses [rust-native-tls](https://github.com/sfackler/rust-native-tls),
which relies on TLS framework provided by OS on Windows and macOS, and OpenSSL
on all other platforms. But it also supports [rus-tls](https://crates.io/crates/rustls).

## Example

Basic HTTP GET request

```rust
use http_req::request;

fn main() {
    let mut body = Vec::new(); //Container for body of a response.
    let res = request::get("https://doc.rust-lang.org/", &mut body).unwrap();

    println!("Status: {} {}", res.status_code(), res.reason());
}
```

```

### Rustls
