QuickRest Features

Easy, builder-style querying REST APIs

QuickRest rest = new QuickRest();
String response = rest.post("http://myapp.com/api/person")
  .header("Cache-Control", no-cache)
  .field("name","John")
  .field("age","35")
  .asString();

Smart handling of query string in all HTTP methods (not only GET!)

QuickRest rest = new QuickRest();
/* Will call POST to http://myapp.com/api/person/?name=John */
String response = rest.post("http://myapp.com/api/person/")
  .query("name","John")
  .asString();
  
/* Will call POST to http://myapp.com/api/person/?age=36&name=John */
String response = rest.post("http://myapp.com/api/person/?age=36")
  .query("name","John")
  .asString();

Path parameters in URL

QuickRest rest = new QuickRest();
/* Will call GET from http://myapp.com/api/person/John */
String response = rest.get("http://{domain}.com/api/person/{name}")
  .pathParam("domain","myapp")
  .pathParam("name","John")
  .asString();

Throw exception on unexpected HTTP response code

QuickRest rest = new QuickRest();
/* Will throw QuickRestException on 404 NOT FOUND because it expects 200 OK code as default */
String response = rest.get("http://myapp.com/api/noresource")
  .asString();

/* Won't throw exception on 404 NOT FOUND code as expected */
String response = rest.get("http://myapp.com/api/noresource")
  .expectResponseStatus(404)
  .asString();
