HTTPoison
Yet Another HTTP client for Elixir powered by hackney
...Using hackney we work only with binaries instead of string lists. First, add HTTPoison to your mix.exs dependencies. Add :httpoison to your applications list if your Elixir version is 1.3 or lower. You can also easily pattern match on the HTTPoison.Response struct. There are a number of supported options(not to be confused with the HTTP options method), documented here, that can be added to your request. The example below shows the use of the :ssl and :recv_timeout options for a post request to an api that requires a bearer token. The :ssl option allows you to set options accepted by the Erlang SSL module, and :recv_timeout sets a timeout on receiving a response, the default is 5000ms.
