undici
An HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js
An HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js. This section documents our most commonly used API methods. Additional APIs are documented in their own files within the docs folder and are accessible via the navigation list on the left side of the docs site. Garbage collection in Node is less aggressive and deterministic (due to the lack of clear idle periods that browsers have through the rendering refresh rate) which means that leaving the release of connection resources to the garbage collector can lead to excessive connection usage, reduced performance (due to less connection re-use), and even stalls or deadlocks when running out of connections. -

httr
httr: a friendly http package for R
httr is superseded: only changes necessary to keep it on CRAN will be made. We recommend using httr2 instead. The aim of httr is to provide a wrapper for the curl package, customized to the demands of modern web APIs. Functions for the most important http verbs: GET(), HEAD(), PATCH(), PUT(), DELETE() and POST(). Automatic connection sharing across requests to the same website (by default, curl handles are managed automatically), cookies are maintained across requests, and an up-to-date root-level SSL certificate store is used. Requests return a standard reponse object that captures the http status line, headers and body, along with other useful information. Support for OAuth 1.0 and 2.0 with oauth1.0_token() and oauth2.0_token(). The demo directory has eight OAuth demos: four for 1.0 (twitter, vimeo, withings and yahoo) and four for 2.0 (facebook, github, google, linkedin). OAuth credentials are automatically cached within a project. -

Feign
Make writing Java http clients easier
Feign is a Java to HTTP client binder that was built primarily to make writing Java http clients easier. Inspired by previous projects Retrofit, JAXRS-2.0 and WebSocket, Feign was designed to reduce the complexity that is often involved in binding the Denominator uniformly to HTTP APIs, no matter the ReSTfulness. Feign works by processing annotations into a templatized request, to which arguments are applied in a straightforward manner before output. While it may only support text-based APIs, it simplifies system aspects dramatically and makes it much easier to unit test your conversions. Feign makes use of great tools like Jersey and CXF for writing Java clients for ReST or SOAP services. It also lets you write your own code on top of http libraries, and connects your code to http APIs with little overhead. -

Java API for GitHub
Java API for GitHub
This library defines an object oriented representation of the GitHub API. By "object oriented" we mean there are classes that correspond to the domain model of GitHub (such as GHUser and GHRepository), operations that act on them as defined as methods (such as GHUser.follow()), and those object references are used in favor of using string handle (such as GHUser.isMemberOf(GHOrganization) instead of GHUser.isMemberOf(String)) The library supports both github.com and GitHub Enterprise. Most of the GitHub APIs are covered, although there are some corners that are still not yet implemented. The library allows connecting to GitHub via several different authentication mechanisms. This library defines a common convention so that applications using this library will look at a consistent location. In this convention, the library looks at ~/.github property file. The content of the files depends on the way you want this library to authenticate as shown. -

pgrok
HTTP/TCP reverse tunnel solution through SSH remote port forwarding
The pgrok is a multi-tenant HTTP/TCP reverse tunnel solution through remote port forwarding from the SSH protocol. This is intended for small teams that need to expose the local development environment to the public internet, and you need to bring your own domain name and SSO provider. It gives a stable subdomain for every user and gated by your SSO through the OIDC protocol. Think of this as a bare-bones alternative to the ngrok's $65/user/month enterprise tier. Trying to put this behind a production system will blow up your SLA. For individuals and production systems, just buy ngrok, it is still my favorite. -
