RestSharp

RestSharp - Simple .NET REST Client

RestSharp is a lightweight HTTP API client library. It's a wrapper around HttpClient, not a full-fledged client on its own.

What RestSharp adds to HttpClient:

• Default parameters of any kind, not just headers
• Add a parameter of any kind to requests, like query, URL segment, header, cookie, or body
• Multiple ways to add a request body, including JSON, XML, URL-encoded form data, multipart form data with and without files
• Built-in serialization and deserilization of JSON, XML, and CSV, as well as the ability to add custom serializers
• Rich support for authentication

Compatibility note

RestSharp 107 was a major release that brings a lot of changes. We've removed a lot of legacy code and added new features. Finally, RestSharp has moved to HttpClient. We also deprecated the following:

• SimpleJson in favour of System.Text.Json.JsonSerialzer
• IRestRequest, and IRestResponse in favour of implementing classes
• Everything Http and IHttp as those are just wrappers
• Client configuration moved to RestClientOptions to make the client thread-safe
• IRestClient interface surface substantially reduced

Most of the client and some of the request options are now in RestClientOptions.

Check v107+ docs for more information.
