# Apache HTTP Components Client 4.x API Plugin
This plugin bundles all the components of [Apache HttpComponents Client 4.5.x](https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-4.5.x/index.html) except `httpclient-win` because of the dependency on jna.
These components can be used by other plugins as a dependency.
It allows managing library updates independently from plugins.
## How to introduce to your plugin
### Plugins directly depending on httpclient
Replace the dependency to `org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient` with the dependency to `apache-httpcomponents-client-4-api`.
Avoid version conflicts by using the [Jenkins plugin BOM](https://github.com/jenkinsci/bom#readme) rather than depending on a specific version.
* Before:
```
...
org.apache.httpcomponents
httpclient
4.5
...
```
* After:
```
...
org.jenkins-ci.plugins
apache-httpcomponents-client-4-api
...
```
### Plugins using libraries depending on httpclient
Add the dependency to `apache-httpcomponents-client-4-api` BEFORE any of dependencies to those libraries to force maven to use `httpclient` declared by `apache-httpcomponents-client-4-api`.
Avoid version conflicts by using the [Jenkins plugin BOM](https://github.com/jenkinsci/bom#readme) rather than depending on a specific version.
* Before:
```
...
somelibrary-using-httpclient
1.0.0
anotherlibrary-using-httpclient
1.0.0
...
```
* After:
```
...
org.jenkins-ci.plugins
apache-httpcomponents-client-4-api
somelibrary-using-httpclient
1.0.0
anotherlibrary-using-httpclient
1.0.0
...
```
