func (*SuperAgent) AddCookie ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) AddCookie(c *stdhttp.Cookie) *SuperAgent

AddCookie adds a cookie to the request. The behavior is the same as AddCookie on Request from net/http

func (*SuperAgent) AddCookies ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) AddCookies(cookies []*stdhttp.Cookie) *SuperAgent

AddCookies is a convenient method to add multiple cookies

func (*SuperAgent) AppendHeader ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) AppendHeader(param string, value string) *SuperAgent

AppendHeader is used for setting header fileds with multiple values, Example. To set `Accept` as `application/json, text/plain`

gorequest.New().
  Post("/gamelist").
  AppendHeader("Accept", "application/json").
  AppendHeader("Accept", "text/plain").
  End()

func (*SuperAgent) ClearSuperAgent ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) ClearSuperAgent()

Clear SuperAgent data for another new request.

func (*SuperAgent) Clone ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Clone() *SuperAgent

Returns a copy of this superagent. Useful if you want to reuse the client/settings concurrently. Note: This does a shallow copy of the parent. So you will need to be careful of Data provided Note: It also directly re-uses the client and transport. If you modify the Timeout, or RedirectPolicy on a clone, the clone will have a new http.client. It is recommended that the base request set your timeout and redirect polices, and no modification of the client or transport happen after cloning. Note: DoNotClearSuperAgent is forced to "true" after Clone

func (*SuperAgent) CustomMethod ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) CustomMethod(method, targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

Just a wrapper to initialize SuperAgent instance by method string

func (*SuperAgent) Delete ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Delete(targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) End ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) End(callback ...func(response Response, body string, errs []error)) (Response, string, []error)

End is the most important function that you need to call when ending the chain. The request won't proceed without calling it. End function returns Response which matchs the structure of Response type in Golang's http package (but without Body data). The body data itself returns as a string in a 2nd return value. Lastly but worth noticing, error array (NOTE: not just single error value) is returned as a 3rd value and nil otherwise.

For example:

resp, body, errs := gorequest.New().Get("http://www.google.com").End()
if errs != nil {
  fmt.Println(errs)
}
fmt.Println(resp, body)

Moreover, End function also supports callback which you can put as a parameter. This extends the flexibility and makes GoRequest fun and clean! You can use GoRequest in whatever style you love!

For example:

func printBody(resp gorequest.Response, body string, errs []error){
  fmt.Println(resp.Status)
}
gorequest.New().Get("http://www..google.com").End(printBody)

func (*SuperAgent) EndBytes ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) EndBytes(callback ...func(response Response, body []byte, errs []error)) (Response, []byte, []error)

EndBytes should be used when you want the body as bytes. The callbacks work the same way as with `End`, except that a byte array is used instead of a string.

func (*SuperAgent) EndStruct ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) EndStruct(v interface{}, callback ...func(response Response, v interface{}, body []byte, errs []error)) (Response, []byte, []error)

EndStruct should be used when you want the body as a struct. The callbacks work the same way as with `End`, except that a struct is used instead of a string.

func (*SuperAgent) Get ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Get(targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) Head ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Head(targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) MakeRequest ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) MakeRequest() (*stdhttp.Request, error)

func (*SuperAgent) Options ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Options(targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) Param ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Param(key string, value string) *SuperAgent

As Go conventions accepts ; as a synonym for &. (https://github.com/golang/go/issues/2210) Thus, Query won't accept ; in a querystring if we provide something like fields=f1;f2;f3 This Param is then created as an alternative method to solve this.

func (*SuperAgent) Patch ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Patch(targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) Post ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Post(targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) Put ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Put(targetUrl string) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) Query ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Query(content interface{}) *SuperAgent

Query function accepts either json string or strings which will form a query-string in url of GET method or body of POST method. For example, making "/search?query=bicycle&size=50x50&weight=20kg" using GET method:

gorequest.New().
  Get("/search").
  Query(`{ query: 'bicycle' }`).
  Query(`{ size: '50x50' }`).
  Query(`{ weight: '20kg' }`).
  End()

Or you can put multiple json values:

gorequest.New().
  Get("/search").
  Query(`{ query: 'bicycle', size: '50x50', weight: '20kg' }`).
  End()

Strings are also acceptable:

gorequest.New().
  Get("/search").
  Query("query=bicycle&size=50x50").
  Query("weight=20kg").
  End()

Or even Mixed! :)

gorequest.New().
  Get("/search").
  Query("query=bicycle").
  Query(`{ size: '50x50', weight:'20kg' }`).
  End()

func (*SuperAgent) Retry ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Retry(retryerCount int, retryerTime time.Duration, statusCode ...int) *SuperAgent

gorequest.New().

Post("/gamelist").
Retry(3, 5 * time.seconds, http.StatusBadRequest, http.StatusInternalServerError).
End()

func (*SuperAgent) Send ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Send(content interface{}) *SuperAgent

Send function accepts either json string or query strings which is usually used to assign data to POST or PUT method. Without specifying any type, if you give Send with json data, you are doing requesting in json format:

gorequest.New().
  Post("/search").
  Send(`{ query: 'sushi' }`).
  End()

While if you use at least one of querystring, GoRequest understands and automatically set the Content-Type to `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`

gorequest.New().
  Post("/search").
  Send("query=tonkatsu").
  End()

So, if you want to strictly send json format, you need to use Type func to set it as `json` (Please see more details in Type function). You can also do multiple chain of Send:

gorequest.New().
  Post("/search").
  Send("query=bicycle&size=50x50").
  Send(`{ wheel: '4'}`).
  End()

From v0.2.0, Send function provide another convenience way to work with Struct type. You can mix and match it with json and query string:

type BrowserVersionSupport struct {
  Chrome string
  Firefox string
}
ver := BrowserVersionSupport{ Chrome: "37.0.2041.6", Firefox: "30.0" }
gorequest.New().
  Post("/update_version").
  Send(ver).
  Send(`{"Safari":"5.1.10"}`).
  End()

If you have set Type to text or Content-Type to text/plain, content will be sent as raw string in body instead of form

gorequest.New().
  Post("/greet").
  Type("text").
  Send("hello world").
  End()

func (*SuperAgent) SendFile ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) SendFile(file interface{}, args ...interface{}) *SuperAgent

SendFile function works only with type "multipart". The function accepts one mandatory and up to two optional arguments. The mandatory (first) argument is the file. The function accepts a path to a file as string:

gorequest.New().
  Post("http://example.com").
  Type("multipart").
  SendFile("./example_file.ext").
  End()

File can also be a []byte slice of a already file read by eg. ioutil.ReadFile:

b, _ := ioutil.ReadFile("./example_file.ext")
gorequest.New().
  Post("http://example.com").
  Type("multipart").
  SendFile(b).
  End()

Furthermore file can also be a os.File:

f, _ := os.Open("./example_file.ext")
gorequest.New().
  Post("http://example.com").
  Type("multipart").
  SendFile(f).
  End()

The first optional argument (second argument overall) is the filename, which will be automatically determined when file is a string (path) or a os.File. When file is a []byte slice, filename defaults to "filename". In all cases the automatically determined filename can be overwritten:

b, _ := ioutil.ReadFile("./example_file.ext")
gorequest.New().
  Post("http://example.com").
  Type("multipart").
  SendFile(b, "my_custom_filename").
  End()

The second optional argument (third argument overall) is the fieldname in the multipart/form-data request. It defaults to fileNUMBER (eg. file1), where number is ascending and starts counting at 1. So if you send multiple files, the fieldnames will be file1, file2, ... unless it is overwritten. If fieldname is set to "file" it will be automatically set to fileNUMBER, where number is the greatest exsiting number+1 unless a third argument skipFileNumbering is provided and true.

b, _ := ioutil.ReadFile("./example_file.ext")
gorequest.New().
  Post("http://example.com").
  Type("multipart").
  SendFile(b, "", "my_custom_fieldname"). // filename left blank, will become "example_file.ext"
  End()

func (*SuperAgent) SendMap ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) SendMap(content interface{}) *SuperAgent

func (*SuperAgent) SendSlice ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) SendSlice(content []interface{}) *SuperAgent

SendSlice (similar to SendString) returns SuperAgent's itself for any next chain and takes content []interface{} as a parameter. Its duty is to append slice of interface{} into s.SliceData ([]interface{}) which later changes into json array in the End() func.

func (*SuperAgent) SendString ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) SendString(content string) *SuperAgent

SendString returns SuperAgent's itself for any next chain and takes content string as a parameter. Its duty is to transform String into s.Data (map[string]interface{}) which later changes into appropriate format such as json, form, text, etc. in the End func. Send implicitly uses SendString and you should use Send instead of this.

func (*SuperAgent) SendStruct ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) SendStruct(content interface{}) *SuperAgent

SendStruct (similar to SendString) returns SuperAgent's itself for any next chain and takes content interface{} as a parameter. Its duty is to transfrom interface{} (implicitly always a struct) into s.Data (map[string]interface{}) which later changes into appropriate format such as json, form, text, etc. in the End() func.

func (*SuperAgent) Set ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Set(param string, value string) *SuperAgent

Set is used for setting header fields, this will overwrite the existed values of Header through AppendHeader(). Example. To set `Accept` as `application/json`

gorequest.New().
  Post("/gamelist").
  Set("Accept", "application/json").
  End()

func (*SuperAgent) SetBasicAuth ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) SetBasicAuth(username string, password string) *SuperAgent

SetBasicAuth sets the basic authentication header Example. To set the header for username "myuser" and password "mypass"

gorequest.New()
  Post("/gamelist").
  SetBasicAuth("myuser", "mypass").
  End()

func (*SuperAgent) SetDoNotClearSuperAgent ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) SetDoNotClearSuperAgent(enable bool) *SuperAgent

Enable the DoNotClear mode for not clearing super agent and reuse for the next request

func (*SuperAgent) Type ¶

func (s *SuperAgent) Type(typeStr string) *SuperAgent

Type is a convenience function to specify the data type to send. For example, to send data as `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` :

gorequest.New().
  Post("/recipe").
  Type("form").
  Send(`{ "name": "egg benedict", "category": "brunch" }`).
  End()

This will POST the body "name=egg benedict&category=brunch" to url /recipe

GoRequest supports

"text/html" uses "html"
"application/json" uses "json"
"application/xml" uses "xml"
"text/plain" uses "text"
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" uses "urlencoded", "form" or "form-data"
