Async HTTP requests for tokio runtime.

This crate is a part of areq library, the runtime-independent HTTP requests. If you want your code to run in tokio runtime, this crate is the right choice.

Getting Started

To create an HTTP client, you need to choose a protocol version it'll support. For example, let's use HTTP/1.1. Add the dependency and the required features to a project:

cargo add areq-tokio -F http1

Now you can connect to a remote server, establish an HTTP connection and perform a request:

use {
    areq_tokio::{areq::{http::Uri, http1::Http1}, prelude::*},
    std::io::Error,
};

async fn get() -> Result<String, Error> {
    let addr = Uri::from_static("http://127.0.0.1:3001");
    let (mut client, conn) = Http1::default().connect(addr).await?;
    tokio::spawn(conn);

    let path = Uri::from_static("/hello");
    client.get(path).await?.text().await
}
