Caution
v0.12.0 replaces RequestBuilder with RequestMessage. Please review documentation before migrating from previous versions.
Simple and lightweight HTTP client with built-in HTTPS support.
- HTTP and HTTPS via rust-native-tls (or optionally rus-tls)
- Small binary size (less than 0.7 MB for basic GET request)
- Minimal amount of dependencies
http_req by default uses 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.
Basic HTTP GET request
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());

In order to use http_req with rustls in your project, add the following lines to Cargo.toml:
