# HTTP Tasks

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/prikhi/http-tasks.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/prikhi/http-tasks)

This library includes some convenience functions for building HTTP requests as

Tasks instead of Cmds, including things like making GET requests & decoding JSON:

```elm

import Http

import Http.Tasks exposing (get, resolveString, resolveJson)

import Json.Decode as Decode exposing (Decoder)

import Task exposing (Task)

type Msg

    = ReceiveData (Result Http.Error MyType)

type alias MyType =

    { fieldOne : String

    , fieldTwo : String

    }

decodeMyType : Decoder MyType

decodeMyType =

    Decode.map MyType

        |> Decode.field "fieldOne" Decode.string

        |> Decode.field "fieldTwo" Decode.string

firstTask : Task Http.Error String

firstTask =

    get

        { url = "https://some.domains.api"

        , resolver = resolveString

        }

secondTask : String -> Task Http.Error MyType

secondTask somePath =

    get

        { url = "https://some/domains.api/" ++ somePath ++ "/"

        , resolver = resolveJson decodeMyType

        }

myCommand : Cmd Msg

myCommand =

    firstTask

        |> Task.andThen secondTask

        |> Task.attempt ReceiveData

```
