play-sttp-examples

Some examples using sttp "the Scala HTTP client you always wanted!"

https://sttp.readthedocs.io/

We also show the use of a Tor socks proxy

To run

sbt run

Point your browser at localhost:9000

By default the socks proxy is not used, so /poke page will say "proxyEnabled=false" at the top

Endpoints

GET / controllers.AsyncHttpClientFutureController.index

GET /asyncHttpClientFutureController/poke controllers.AsyncHttpClientFutureController.poke

GET /asyncHttpClientFutureController/post controllers.AsyncHttpClientFutureController.post

GET /httpURLConnectionController/poke controllers.HttpURLConnectionController.poke

GET /httpURLConnectionController/post controllers.HttpURLConnectionController.post

Also some non play Apps, inside playpen

playpen.TryURLConnection

playpen.sttp.TryHttpURLConnectionBackend

playpen.sttp.TryAsyncHttpClientFutureBackend

Tor

By default the socks proxy is not used, look inside application.conf, and change socksport and proxyEnabled

(localhost/9050 is for the Tor standalone socks proxy, 9150 if you rely on the Tor browser proxy)

Don't point your browser at localhost:9050 or 9150, or you'll be talking to the Tor Proxy and getting warnings like "this is a SOCKs proxy, not an HTTP proxy"
