Overview

SwiftHttp

An awesome Swift HTTP library to rapidly create communication layers with API endpoints.

Install

You can simply use SwiftHttp as a dependency via the Swift Package Manager:

.package(url: "https://github.com/binarybirds/swift-http", from: "1.0.0"),

Add the SwiftHttp product from the swift-http package as a dependency to your target:

.product(name: "SwiftHttp", package: "swift-http"),

Import the framework:

import SwiftHttp

That's it.

Basic usage

It is really easy to setup a communication layer with an API endpoint.

[Todo] { try await decodableRequest(executor: client.dataTask, url: apiBaseUrl.path("todos"), method: .get) } } // api usage let todos = try await api.list() // curl log // curl "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/" ">

import SwiftHttp

struct Todo: Codable {
    let id: Int
    let title: String
    let completed: Bool
}

struct TodoApi: HttpCodablePipelineCollection {

    let client: HttpClient = UrlSessionHttpClient(log: true)
    let apiBaseUrl = HttpUrl(host: "jsonplaceholder.typicode.com")

    
    func list() async throws -> [Todo] {
        try await decodableRequest(executor: client.dataTask,
                                   url: apiBaseUrl.path("todos"),
                                   method: .get)
    }    
}

// api usage
let todos = try await api.list()

// curl log
// curl "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/"

The HttpClient provides the executors to perform data, download or upload tasks.

You can create decodable, encodable, codable or raw request when using a codable pipeline collection.

Request pipelines

Custom decoder

If you are using a request pipeline collection you can override the encoder and decoder objects.

Feature/http header key space

Given the near infinite nature of headers in http requests, it would be more feasible to transform this type into a struct. This way it can be easily extended to support any fathomable header keys.
