defmodule MyApp.APIClient do
import HttpBuilder
@adapter Application.get_env(:my_app, :http_adapter)
def client() do
# Alternatively - use HttpBuilder.cast/1 with a map of options.
HttpBuilder.new()
|> with_host("https://some-api.org")
|> with_adapter(@adapter)
|> with_headers(%{
"Authorization" => "Bearer #{MyApp.getToken()}",
"Content-Type" => "application/json"
})
end
def submit_widget(body) do
client()
|> post("/v1/path/to/submit")
|> with_body(body)
|> send()
end
def get_widget do
client()
|> get("/v1/path/to/fetch")
|> with_query_params(%{"offset" => 10, "limit" => 5})
|> with_request_timeout(10 * 1000)
