### _Simple HTTP client for ruby_
---
## Installation
$ gem install hippie
## Usage
Here's an example of a GET request:
```ruby
require 'hippie'
response = Hippie.get('http://example.com')
response.class #=> Hippie::Response
response.status #=> Number with the status code
response.headers #=> Hash with the response headers
response.body #=> String with the response body
response.json #=> String with the response body parsed to json
response.information? #=> 1xx response
response.success? #=> 2xx response
response.redirection? #=> 3xx response
response.client_error? #=> 4xx response
response.server_error? #=> 5xx response
response.error? #=> 4xx or 5xx
```
You can also pass parameters with a query string:
```ruby
Hippie.get('http://example.com', params: { foo: 'bar' })
```
If you want to send data with a POST request, you can add a `data` option with the value.
```ruby
Hippie.post('http://example.com', data: 'hello world')
```
For Basic Authentication, you can provide the option `auth`, which
should contain an array with the username and password:
```ruby
Hippie.get('http://example.com', auth: ['username', 'password'])
```
