puppetlabs/http-client

Build Status

This is a wrapper around the Apache HttpAsyncClient library providing some extra functionality for configuring SSL in a way compatible with Puppet.

Installation

Add the following dependency to your project.clj file:

Clojars Project

Details

Async versions of the http methods are exposed in puppetlabs.http.client.async, and synchronous versions are in puppetlabs.http.client.sync. For information on using these namespaces, see the page on making requests with clojure clients.

Additionally, this library allows you to make requests using Java clients. For information on how to do this, see the page on making requests with java clients.

Testing

The tests require pki files in the dev-resources/ssl/ directory of:

  • ca.pem: a CA cert with the CN of "puppet"
  • key.pem: a node private key
  • cert.pem: a cert signed by ca.pem for the private key at key.pem with a CN of "localhost"
  • alternate-ca.pem: a valid but untrusted CA cert

The repo contains these files needed for testing, though if needed you may want to read dev-resources/gen-pki.sh for the commands to generate additional sets of files.

Upgrading dependencies

The APIs provided by httpclient change significantly in 5.0 and some of the internal classes that we've extended change within minor releases of the 4.5 series. Whenever upgrading the apache/httpcomponents dependencies an audit of the Java classes should be undertaken, especially the classes pertaining to SafeRedirectedRequest and RedirectStrategy.

Support

We use the Trapperkeeper project on JIRA for tickets on clj-http-client, although Github issues are welcome too.
