# httipi
A .NET Standard compliant set of extenions methods for `System.Net.HttpClient` that makes making HTTP requests much much simpler. Includes a fluent `HttpRequestMessage` builder.
Compression is automatically enabled if available (from response headers) and streams are used throughout the stack to ensure large requests are handled appropriately.

## Getting Started
A simple example to execute a `GET` request deserializing JSON to CLR object using [Json.NET](https://github.com/JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json)
```csharp
var http = new HttpClient();
var someObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(await http.GetString("http://someurl.com"));
```
A more complex `PATCH` request with a JSON request body and an HMAC authorization header.
```csharp
var http = new HttpClient();
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new { someProperty = "newPropertyValue" });
var req = new HTTipiRequestBuilder().SetUrl("http://someurl.com")
.SetMethod(new HttpMethod("PATCH"))
.WithContent(new StringContent(json, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json"))
.AddHeader("Authorization", "hmac somecrazylonghmackey")
await http.Execute(req);
```
Exception handling.
```csharp
var http = new HttpClient();
try
{
var someObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(await http.GetString("http://someurl.com"));
}
catch (HTTipiException ex)
{
//logging
}
```
