4. Making Requests¶

HTTP Methods¶

client.get("/players/7281");
client.post("/games");
client.put("/games/42");
client.delete("/games/42");
client.patch("/games/42");
client.head("/games/42");
client.options("/games");

The path must start with /. If baseUrl has a path prefix, it's combined with the prefix (e.g., base http://h/api + path /games → /api/games).

Query Parameters¶

client.get("/search").query("q", "ranked match").query("limit", "20").submitRaw();
// → /search?q=ranked%20match&limit=20

Headers¶

client.get("/players/7281").header("x-trace-id", "abc-123").submitRaw();

Merged with the client's default headers (defaultHeader), and for the same name, the per-request value wins.

Per-Request Timeout¶

client.get("/slow").timeout(Duration.ofSeconds(10)).submitRaw();
