Proyecto26.RestClient 1.2.1

RestClient for Unity 🤘

This HTTP/REST Client is based on Promises to avoid the Callback Hell ☠️ and the Pyramid of doom 💩 working with Coroutines in Unity 🎮, example:

var root = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com";
RestClient.GetArray<Post>(root + "/posts", (err, res) => {
  RestClient.GetArray<Todo>(root + "/todos", (errTodos, resTodos) => {
    RestClient.GetArray<User>(root + "/users", (errUsers, resUsers) => {
      if(err != null){
        EditorUtility.DisplayDialog ("Error", errTodos.Message, "Ok");
      }
    });
  });
});

But working with Promises we can improve our code, yay! 👏

RestClient.GetArray<Post>(root + "/posts").Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog ("Success", JsonHelper.ArrayToJson<Post>(response, true), "Ok");
  return RestClient.GetArray<Todo>(root + "/todos");
}).Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog ("Success", JsonHelper.ArrayToJson<Todo>(response, true), "Ok");
  return RestClient.GetArray<User>(root + "/users");
}).Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog ("Success", JsonHelper.ArrayToJson<User>(response, true), "Ok");
}).Catch(err => EditorUtility.DisplayDialog ("Error", err.Message, "Ok"));

Installation 👨‍💻

Unity package

Download and install the .unitypackage file of the latest release published here.

Nuget package

Other option is download this package from NuGet with Visual Studio or using the nuget-cli, a NuGet.config file is required at the root of your Unity Project, for example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>

Getting Started 📚

The default methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) are:

RestClient.Get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1").Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("Response", response.text, "Ok");
})

RestClient.Post("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts", newPost).Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("Status", response.statusCode.ToString(), "Ok");
})

RestClient.Put("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1", updatedPost).Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("Status", response.statusCode.ToString(), "Ok");
})

RestClient.Delete("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1").Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("Status", response.statusCode.ToString(), "Ok");
})

But we are going to create a class "User" and the HTTP requests to load JSON data easily:

[Serializable]
public class User
{
  public int id;
  public string name;
  public string username;
  public string email;
  public string phone;
  public string website;
}

• GET JSON

var usersRoot = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users"; 
RestClient.Get<User>(usersRoot + "/1").Then(firstUser => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("JSON", JsonUtility.ToJson(firstUser, true), "Ok");
})

• GET Array

RestClient.GetArray<User>(usersRoot).Then(allUsers => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("JSON Array", JsonHelper.ArrayToJsonString<User>(allUsers, true), "Ok");
})

Also we can create different classes for custom responses:

[Serializable]
public class CustomResponse
{
  public int id;
}

• POST

RestClient.Post<CustomResponse>(usersRoot, newUser).Then(customResponse => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("JSON", JsonUtility.ToJson(customResponse, true), "Ok");
})

• PUT

RestClient.Put<CustomResponse>(usersRoot + "/1", updatedUser).Then(customResponse => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("JSON", JsonUtility.ToJson(customResponse, true), "Ok");
})

Custom HTTP Headers and Options 💥

HTTP Headers, such as Authorization, can be set in the DefaultRequestHeaders object for all requests

RestClient.DefaultRequestHeaders["Authorization"] = "Bearer ...";

Also we can add specific options and override default headers for a request

var requestOptions = new RequestHelper { 
  url = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/photos",
  headers = new Dictionary<string, string>{
    { "Authorization", "Other token..." }
  }
};
RestClient.GetArray<Photo>(requestOptions).Then(response => {
  EditorUtility.DisplayDialog("Header", requestOptions.GetRequestHeader("Authorization"), "Ok");
})

And later we can clean the default headers for all requests

RestClient.CleanDefaultHeaders();
