req := httpreq.New(url)
resp, err := req.Get()

Usage
Here is an example to use some helper methods of httpreq. You can find more examples in test files.
Request
req.SetHeaders(map[string]string{"Authorization": bearer})
// Set Content Type
req.SetContentType("application/json")
// Set JSON raw body
info := &Data{
FirstName: "John",
LastName: "Doe",
Age: 42,
}
jsonData, _ := json.Marshal(info)
req.SetBody(jsonData)
// Send Request
resp, _ := req.Post()
">
// Create new request req := httpreq.New("https://your-address-to-send-json.com") // Set Timeout req.SetTimeout(30 * time.Second) // Set Header (i.e. JWT Bearer Token) var bearer = "Bearer " + <ACCESS TOKEN HERE> req.SetHeaders(map[string]string{"Authorization": bearer}) // Set Content Type req.SetContentType("application/json") // Set JSON raw body info := &Data{ FirstName: "John", LastName: "Doe", Age: 42, } jsonData, _ := json.Marshal(info) req.SetBody(jsonData) // Send Request resp, _ := req.Post()
Response
// Body
result, err := resp.Body()
// Original response
response := resp.Response()
// StatusCode
statusCode := resp.StatusCode()
// Headers
headers := resp.Headers()
