Just is a client-side HTTP library inspired by [python-requests][] - HTTP for Humans.

[python-requests]: http://python-requests.org "python-requests"

# Features

Just lets you to the following effortlessly:

- URL queries
- custom headers
- form (`x-www-form-encoded`) / JSON HTTP body
- redirect control
- multipart file upload along with form values.
- basic/digest authentication
- cookies
- timeouts
- synchronous / asynchronous requests
- upload / download progress tracking for asynchronous requests
- link headers
- friendly accessible results

# Use

The simplest request with Just looks like this:

```swift
// A simple get request
Just.get("http://httpbin.org/get")
```

The next example shows how to upload a file along with some data:

```swift
// talk to registration end point
let r = Just.post(
"http://justiceleauge.org/member/register",
data: ["username": "barryallen", "password":"ReverseF1ashSucks"],
files: ["profile_photo": .url(fileURLWithPath:"flash.jpeg", nil)]
)

if r.ok { /* success! */ }
```

Here's the same example done asynchronously:

```swift
// talk to registration end point
Just.post(
"http://justiceleauge.org/member/register",
data: ["username": "barryallen", "password":"ReverseF1ashSucks"],
files: ["profile_photo": .url(fileURLWithPath:"flash.jpeg", nil)]
) { r in
if r.ok { /* success! */ }
}

```

# Install

Here are some ways to leverage Just.

## Xcode

Add `https://github.com/dduan/Just.git` the usual way.

## Swift Package Manager

Add the following to your `dependencies`:

```swift
.package(url: "https://github.com/dduan/Just.git", from: "0.8.0")
```

… and `"Just"` to your target dependencies.

## Carthage

Include the following in your Cartfile:

github "dduan/Just"

Just includes dynamic framework targets for both iOS and OS X.

## CocoaPods

The usual way:

platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!

target 'MyApp' do
pod 'Just'
end

## Manual

Drop `Just.xcodeproj` into your project navigator. Under the *General* tab of
your project settings, use the plus sign to add `Just.framework` to
*Linked Framework and Libraries*. Make sure to include the correct version
for your target's platform.

It's also common to add Just as a git submodule to your projects repository:

cd path/to/your/project
git submodule add https://github.com/dduan/Just.git

## Source File

Put `Just.swift` directly into your project. Alternately, put it in the
*Sources* folder of a playground. (The latter makes a fun way to explore the
web.)

[Carthage]: https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage "Carthage"

# Contribute

Pull requests are welcome. Here are some tips for code contributors:

Work in `Just.xcworkspace`.

The tests for link headers relies on Github APIs, which has a low per-hour
limit. To overcome this, you can edit the Xcode build schemes and add
[environment variables][XcodeEnvVar] `GITHUB_TOKEN`. Learn more about
personal tokens [here][GithubToken].

For Xcode rebels, checkout `Makefile`.
