### Sending a GET request

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

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$content = pulsar()->get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1')->content();

print_r($content);
```

```
stdClass Object
(
  [userId] => 1
  [id] => 1
  [title] => sunt aut facere repellat provident occaecati excepturi optio reprehenderit
  [body] => quia et suscipit
suscipit recusandae consequuntur expedita et cum
reprehenderit molestiae ut ut quas totam
nostrum rerum est autem sunt rem eveniet architecto
)
```

### Sending a POST request

[](#sending-a-post-request)

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$response = pulsar()->data([
  'title' => 'Test your PHP libraries with Matcha',
  'userId' => 1,
  'body' => 'Lorem ipsum'
])->post('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts');

print_r($response->content());
```

```
stdClass Object
(
  [title] => Test your PHP libraries with Matcha
  [userId] => 1
  [body] => Lorem ipsum
  [id] => 101
)
```

### Sending a PATCH request

[](#sending-a-patch-request)

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$response = pulsar()->data([
  'name' => 'morpheus',
  'job' => 'zion resident'
])->patch('https://reqres.in/api/users/2');

print_r($response->content());
```

```
stdClass Object
(
  [name] => morpheus
  [job] => zion resident
  [updatedAt] => 2018-06-18T21:29:15.334Z
)
```

### Sending a PUT request

[](#sending-a-put-request)

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$response = pulsar()->data([
    'name' => 'neo',
    'job' => 'developer at Metacortex'
])->put('https://reqres.in/api/users/2');

print_r($response->content());
```

```
stdClass Object
(
    [name] => neo
    [job] => developer at Metacortex
    [updatedAt] => 2018-06-20T09:46:44.267Z
)
```

### Sending a DELETE request

[](#sending-a-delete-request)

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$response = pulsar()->delete('https://reqres.in/api/users/2');

echo $response->code();
```

```
204
```

### Sending a request to a non existing endpoint

[](#sending-a-request-to-a-non-existing-endpoint)

In this case, you will always get a `404` status code and an empty response.

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$response = pulsar()->get('https://a-non-existing-domain-hopefully.com/api/v1/post');

echo $response->code();
```

```
404
```

### Get the response as an array

[](#get-the-response-as-an-array)

You can do so by using `->toArray()` modifier:

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');
```

### Get the response as an array

[](#get-the-response-as-an-array-1)

You can use the `toArray()` modifier for this purpose:

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$array = pulsar()->get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1')->toArray()->content();

print_r($array);
```

Which is the same as:

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$response = pulsar()->get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1');

$array = $response->toArray()->content();

print_r($array);
```

```
Array
(
  [userId] => 1
  [id] => 1
  [title] => sunt aut facere repellat provident occaecati excepturi optio reprehenderit
  [body] => quia et suscipit
suscipit recusandae consequuntur expedita et cum
reprehenderit molestiae ut ut quas totam
nostrum rerum est autem sunt rem eveniet architecto
)
```

### Get the HTTP status code

[](#get-the-http-status-code)

```
require(__DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php');

$response = pulsar()->get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1');

echo $response->code();
```

```
200
```
