Diciotto is a no-nonsense PSR-18 compliant HTTP client library for PHP 7.

Principles
----------

[](#principles)

- Documentation should be unnecessary
- Provide sensible defaults
- Explicit is better than implicit
- Prefer a good Developer eXperience over performance
- No surprises

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
    composer require fain182/diciotto

```

How to...
---------

[](#how-to)

### make a GET request

[](#make-a-get-request)

```
    $httpClient = new HttpClient();
    $response = $httpClient->sendRequest( new Request('http://www.google.com') );
```

### make a POST request with body in JSON

[](#make-a-post-request-with-body-in-json)

```
    $httpClient = new HttpClient();
    $request = new JsonRequest('https://httpbin.org/put', 'POST', ['name' => 'value']);
    $response = $httpClient->sendRequest($request);
```

### make a request with a different timeout

[](#make-a-request-with-a-different-timeout)

The default timeout is 15 seconds.

```
    $httpClient = (new HttpClient())->withTimeout(30);
    $response = $httpClient->sendRequest( new Request('http://www.google.com') );
```

### make a request to a server with self-signed or invalid SSL certificate

[](#make-a-request-to-a-server-with-self-signed-or-invalid-ssl-certificate)

```
    $httpClient = (new HttpClient())->withCheckSslCertificates(false);
    $response = $httpClient->sendRequest( new Request('http://www.google.com') );
```

### make a request with a cookie

[](#make-a-request-with-a-cookie)

```
    $httpClient = new HttpClient();
    $request = (new Request('http://www.google.com'))->withAddedCookie('name', 'value');

Diciotto raise exception if the request is invalid (`RequestException`), or if there are network problems (`NetworkException`). Response with status code 4xx or 5xx are treated the same way as the others, so no exception or error is raised.
