Introduction

A Gradle plugin providing the ability to define tasks to make HTTP requests using the HttpBuilder-NG client library. The resulting tasks have a clean DSL and will look something like the following:

Groovy

task notify(type:HttpTask){
    config {
        request.uri = 'http://something.com'
    }
    post {
        request.uri.path = '/notify'
        request.body = [event: 'activated']
        response.success {
            println 'The event notification was successful'
        }
    }
}

Kotlin

tasks {
    val notify by registering(HttpTask::class) {
        config {
            it.request.setUri = "http://something.com"
        }
        post {
            it.request.uri.setPath("/notify")
        }
        response.success { fromServer, body ->
            println("The event notification was successful")
        }
    }
}
