# HTTP Client
|
|
|
|
This plugin is a http client for go-micro.
|
|
|
|
The http client wraps net/http to provide a robust go-micro client with service discovery, load balancing and streaming.
|
|
It complies with the [go-micro.Client](https://godoc.org/github.com/micro/go-micro/client#Client) interface.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Use directly
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
import "github.com/micro/go-plugins/client/http"
|
|
|
|
service := micro.NewService(
|
|
micro.Name("my.service"),
|
|
micro.Client(http.NewClient()),
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Use with flags
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
import _ "github.com/micro/go-plugins/client/http"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
go run main.go --client=http
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Call Service
|
|
|
|
Assuming you have a http service "my.service" with path "/foo/bar"
|
|
```go
|
|
// new client
|
|
client := http.NewClient()
|
|
|
|
// create request/response
|
|
request := client.NewRequest("my.service", "/foo/bar", &proto.Request{})
|
|
response := new(proto.Response)
|
|
|
|
// call service
|
|
err := client.Call(context.TODO(), request, response)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Look at http_test.go for detailed use.
|
|
|
|
### Encoding
|
|
|
|
Default protobuf with content-type application/proto
|
|
```go
|
|
client.NewRequest("service", "/path", protoRequest{})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Json with content-type application/json
|
|
```go
|
|
client.NewJsonRequest("service", "/path", jsonRequest{})
|
|
```
