Makes http fun again!

== Note on Releases

Releases are tagged on github and also released as gems on github and rubyforge. Master is pushed to whenever I add a patch or a new feature. To build from master, you can clone the code, generate the updated gemspec, build the gem and install.

* rake gemspec
* gem build httparty.gemspec
* gem install the gem that was built

== Note on Patches/Pull Requests

* Fork the project.
* Make your feature addition or bug fix.
* Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
* Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself in another branch so I can ignore when I pull)
* Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.

== Features:

* Easy get, post requests
* Basic http authentication
* Default request query string parameters (ie: for api keys that are needed on each request)
* Automatic parsing of JSON and XML into ruby hashes based on response content-type

== Examples

See http://github.com/jnunemaker/httparty/tree/master/examples

== Command Line Interface

httparty also includes the executable <tt>httparty</tt> which can be
used to query web services and examine the resulting output. By default
it will output the response as a pretty-printed Ruby object (useful for
grokking the structure of output). This can also be overridden to output
formatted XML or JSON. Execute <tt>httparty --help</tt> for all the
options. Below is an example of how easy it is.

  httparty "http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.json"

== Requirements

* Crack http://github.com/jnunemaker/crack/ - For XML and JSON parsing.
* You like to party!

== Install

* sudo gem install httparty
