Simple buffered HTTP client for golang with retries, exponential back-off and timeouts

Got - HTTP API Calls

Package got is a super simple net/http wrapper that does the right thing for most JSON REST APIs specifically adding:

• Retry logic with exponential back-off,
• Reading of body with a MaxSize to avoid running out of memory,
• Timeout after 30 seconds.

g := got.New()
response, err := g.NewRequest("PUT", url, []byte("...")).Send()
if err == nil {
  // handle error
}

// Make a GET request
response, err := g.NewRequest("GET", url, nil).Send()
// or short hand
response, err := g.Get(url).Send()

// Send JSON in a request
request := g.NewRequest("PUT", url, []byte(`{"key": "value"}`))
request.Header.Set("Content-Type": "application/json")
// or short hand
request := g.Put(url, nil)
err := request.JSON(map[string]{"key": "value"})

// Disable retries for a request
request := g.NewRequest("POST", url, []byte(`{"key": "value"}`))
request.Retries = 0  // Defaults to 5

// Disable retries for all requests
g.Retries = 0

CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md isn't correct

Your required text does not appear to be correct

As of January 1 2019, Mozilla requires that all GitHub projects include this CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file in the project root. The file has two parts:

1. Required Text - All text under the headings Community Participation Guidelines and How to Report, are required, and should not be altered.
2. Optional Text - The Project Specific Etiquette heading provides a space to speak more specifically about ways people can work effectively and inclusively together. Some examples of those can be found on the Firefox Debugger project, and Common Voice. (The optional part is commented out in the raw template file, and will not be visible until you modify and uncomment that part.)

If you have any questions about this file, or Code of Conduct policies and procedures, please reach out to [email protected].
