Describes a HTTP request, along with a description of how the response body should be handled.
The request can be sent using a SttpBackend, which provides a superset of the required capabilities.
- Type parameters:
- R
The backend capabilities required by the request or response description. This might be
Any
(no requirements), Effect (the backend must support the given effect type), Streams (the ability to send and receive streaming bodies) or sttp.capabilities.WebSockets (the ability to handle websocket requests).- T
The target type, to which the response body should be read.
- U
Specifies if the method & uri are specified. By default can be either: * Empty, which is a type constructor which always resolves to None. This type of request is aliased to PartialRequest: there's no method and uri specified, and the request cannot be sent. * Identity, which is an identity type constructor. This type of request is aliased to Request: the method and uri are specified, and the request can be sent.
- Value parameters:
- response
Description of how the response body should be handled. Needs to be specified upfront so that the response is always consumed and hence there are no requirements on client code to consume it. An exception to this are unsafe streaming and websocket responses, which need to be consumed/closed by the client.
- tags
Request-specific tags which can be used by backends for logging, metrics, etc. Not used by default.
- Companion:
- object
Value members

When a POST or PUT request is redirected, should the redirect be a POST/PUT as well (with the original body), or should the request be converted to a GET without a body.
When a POST or PUT request is redirected, should the redirect be a POST/PUT as well (with the original body), or should the request be converted to a GET without a body.
Note that this only affects 301 and 302 redirects. 303 redirects are always converted, while 307 and 308 redirects always keep the same method.

Specifies the target type to which the response body should be read. Note that this replaces any previous
specifications, which also includes any previous mapResponse
invocations.

Sends the request, using the given backend. Only requests for which the method & URI are specified can be sent.
Sends the request, using the given backend. Only requests for which the method & URI are specified can be sent.
The required capabilities must be a subset of the capabilities provided by the backend.
- Returns:
For synchronous backends (when the effect type is Identity), Response is returned directly and exceptions are thrown. For asynchronous backends (when the effect type is e.g. scala.concurrent.Future), an effect containing the Response is returned. Exceptions are represented as failed effects (e.g. failed futures). The response body is deserialized as specified by this request (see RequestT.response). Known exceptions are converted by backends to one of SttpClientException. Other exceptions are thrown unchanged.
Deprecated methods
