trait Client[F[_]]

A Client submits Requests to a server and processes the Response.

When a connection is "released" and the HTTP semantics of the request and response permit, the connection may be kept alive by the backend and used for a subsequent request. When HTTP semantics require it, or at the backend's discretion, a released connection may also be closed.

f

A callback for the response to a GET on uri. The underlying HTTP connection is released when the returned task completes. Attempts to read the response body afterward will result in an error.

uri

The URI to GET

Returns this client as an HttpApp. It is the responsibility of callers of this service to run the response body to release the underlying HTTP connection.

Returns this client as an HttpApp. It is the responsibility of callers of this service to run the response body to release the underlying HTTP connection.

This is intended for use in proxy servers. run, [[fetchAsA*]], toKleisli, and stream are safer alternatives, as their signatures guarantee release of the HTTP connection.

def toKleisli[A](f: Response[F] => F[A]): Kleisli[F, Request[F], A]

Returns this client as a cats.data.Kleisli. All connections created by this service are released on completion of callback task f.

Returns this client as a cats.data.Kleisli. All connections created by this service are released on completion of callback task f.

This method effectively reverses the arguments to run followed by use, and is preferred when an HTTP client is composed into a larger Kleisli function, or when a common response callback is used by many call sites.
