HTTP Framework

uni provides a cross-platform HTTP client with automatic retry, streaming support, and reactive integration.

Overview

Component	Description
HTTP Client	Sync and async HTTP clients
Retry Strategies	Automatic retry for transient failures

Quick Start

import wvlet.uni.http.{Http, Request}

// Create a client
val client = Http.client.newSyncClient

// Make a GET request
val response = client.send(Request.get("https://api.example.com/users"))
println(response.contentAsString)

// Close the client
client.close()

Async Client with Rx

import wvlet.uni.http.Http

val asyncClient = Http.client.newAsyncClient

asyncClient
  .send(Request.get("https://api.example.com/data"))
  .map(_.contentAsString)
  .subscribe { content =>
    println(s"Received: ${content}")
  }

Key Features

• Cross-Platform - Works on JVM, Scala.js, and Scala Native
• Automatic Retry - Built-in retry with exponential backoff
• Streaming - Stream response bodies as byte chunks
• Reactive - Async client returns Rx[HttpResponse]
• Configurable - Timeouts, retries, headers

Client Types

Type	Method	Use Case
Sync	newSyncClient	Simple blocking requests
Async	newAsyncClient	Non-blocking with Rx
