Usage

[](#usage)

To use the Custom HTTP Client, you need to create an instance of the desired HTTP client using the **`HttpClientFactory`**. You can specify which client to use based or you can just get any one of the HTTP client available in your system/server.

```
use CustomHTTP\HttpClientFactory;

$clientType = 'curl';
$httpClient = HttpClientFactory::create($clientType);

// Make a GET request
try {
    $response = $httpClient->get('https://example.com');
    echo $response;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
```

**OR**

```
use CustomHTTP\HttpClientFactory;

$httpClient = new HttpClientFactory()->getClient();

// Make a GET request
try {
    $response = $httpClient->get('https://example.com');
    echo $response;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
```

Supported HTTP Clients
----------------------

**PHP cURL:** A library that allows you to connect and communicate with different types of servers using various protocols, including HTTP.

**PHP Streams:** A built-in PHP method for handling HTTP requests using streams.

Examples
--------

[](#examples)

Making a POST Request Here's how to make a POST request using the custom HTTP client:

```
try {
    $response = $httpClient->post('https://example.com/api', [
        'body' => [
            'key1' => 'value1',
            'key2' => 'value2',
        ],
        'headers' => [
            'api_key' => 'your-api-key'
        ]
    ]);
    echo $response;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
```

Other methods can also be used as like below:

```
try {
    $response = $httpClient->request('https://example.com/api', 'PUT', [
        'body' => [
            'key1' => 'value1',
            'key2' => 'value2',
        ],
        'headers' => [
            'api_key' => 'your-api-key'
        ]
    ]);
    echo $response;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
