[![Docs.rs](https://docs.rs/http_req/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/http_req/0.6.1/http_req/)

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

## Requirements

http_req by default uses [rust-native-tls](https://github.com/sfackler/rust-native-tls),
which uses 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 GET request
```rust
use http_req::request;

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

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

## How to use with `rustls`:

In order to use `http_req` with `rustls` in your project,  add following lines to `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
http_req  = {version="^0.6", default-features = false, features = ["rust-tls"]}
```
