HTTP Clients

26 projects

These packages make outbound HTTP calls easier than using net/http's Client directly. They add fluent request builders, JSON encoding and decoding, retries with backoff, circuit breaking, request hedging and, in a few cases, control over the TLS fingerprint a client presents. Most wrap net/http rather than replacing it, so transports, proxies and context cancellation behave as you would expect.

resty is the most widely used wrapper, with a chainable API, middleware hooks and retry support. imroc/req is a similar full-featured client with debugging and dumping built in, while dghubble/sling and carlmjohnson/requests stay closer to net/http and focus on composing requests. For resilience, HashiCorp's go-retryablehttp retries with backoff behind a standard-looking client, and Gojek's heimdall adds retries and Hystrix-style circuit breaking. go-cleanhttp returns clients that share no global state. Clients such as tls-client, azuretls-client and surf can mimic browser TLS and HTTP/2 fingerprints. grequests is archived.

The standard client is often enough: create one http.Client per upstream with an explicit Timeout, since the default client has none, and pass a context on every request. Add a wrapper when you repeat the same JSON and error handling many times, and a retry library only for idempotent requests. If you call one specific API, check whether its official SDK already covers this.
