HTTPRequest
===========

**Inherits:** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

A node with the ability to send HTTP(S) requests.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

A node with the ability to send HTTP requests. Uses :ref:`HTTPClient<class_HTTPClient>` internally.

Can be used to make HTTP requests, i.e. download or upload files or web content via HTTP.

\ **Warning:** See the notes and warnings on :ref:`HTTPClient<class_HTTPClient>` for limitations, especially regarding TLS security.

\ **Note:** When exporting to Android, make sure to enable the ``INTERNET`` permission in the Android export preset before exporting the project or using one-click deploy. Otherwise, network communication of any kind will be blocked by Android.

\ **Example of contacting a REST API and printing one of its returned fields:**\

\ **Gzipped response bodies**: HTTPRequest will automatically handle decompression of response bodies. A ``Accept-Encoding`` header will be automatically added to each of your requests, unless one is already specified. Any response with a ``Content-Encoding: gzip`` header will automatically be decompressed and delivered to you as uncompressed bytes.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_HTTPRequest_property_accept_gzip:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **accept_gzip** = ``true``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_accept_gzip** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_accepting_gzip** **(** **)**

If ``true``, this header will be added to each request: ``Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate`` telling servers that it's okay to compress response bodies.

Any Response body declaring a ``Content-Encoding`` of either ``gzip`` or ``deflate`` will then be automatically decompressed, and the uncompressed bytes will be delivered via :ref:`request_completed<class_HTTPRequest_signal_request_completed>`.

If the user has specified their own ``Accept-Encoding`` header, then no header will be added regardless of :ref:`accept_gzip<class_HTTPRequest_property_accept_gzip>`.

If ``false`` no header will be added, and no decompression will be performed on response bodies. The raw bytes of the response body will be returned via :ref:`request_completed<class_HTTPRequest_signal_request_completed>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_property_body_size_limit:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`int<class_int>` **body_size_limit** = ``-1``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_body_size_limit** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` value **)**
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_body_size_limit** **(** **)**

Maximum allowed size for response bodies. If the response body is compressed, this will be used as the maximum allowed size for the decompressed body.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_property_download_chunk_size:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`int<class_int>` **download_chunk_size** = ``65536``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_download_chunk_size** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` value **)**
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_download_chunk_size** **(** **)**

The size of the buffer used and maximum bytes to read per iteration. See :ref:`HTTPClient.read_chunk_size<class_HTTPClient_property_read_chunk_size>`.

Set this to a lower value (e.g. 4096 for 4 KiB) when downloading small files to decrease memory usage at the cost of download speeds.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_property_download_file:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`String<class_String>` **download_file** = ``""``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_download_file** **(** :ref:`String<class_String>` value **)**
- :ref:`String<class_String>` **get_download_file** **(** **)**

The file to download into. Will output any received file into it.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_property_max_redirects:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`int<class_int>` **max_redirects** = ``8``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_max_redirects** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` value **)**
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_max_redirects** **(** **)**

Maximum number of allowed redirects.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_property_timeout:

- void **set_timeout** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` value **)**
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_timeout** **(** **)**

The duration to wait in seconds before a request times out. If :ref:`timeout<class_HTTPRequest_property_timeout>` is set to ``0.0`` then the request will never time out. For simple requests, such as communication with a REST API, it is recommended that :ref:`timeout<class_HTTPRequest_property_timeout>` is set to a value suitable for the server response time (e.g. between ``1.0`` and ``10.0``). This will help prevent unwanted timeouts caused by variation in server response times while still allowing the application to detect when a request has timed out. For larger requests such as file downloads it is suggested the :ref:`timeout<class_HTTPRequest_property_timeout>` be set to ``0.0``, disabling the timeout functionality. This will help to prevent large transfers from failing due to exceeding the timeout value.

Method Descriptions
-------------------

.. _class_HTTPRequest_method_cancel_request:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

void **cancel_request** **(** **)**

Cancels the current request.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_method_get_body_size:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`int<class_int>` **get_body_size** **(** **)** |const|

Returns the response body length.

\ **Note:** Some Web servers may not send a body length. In this case, the value returned will be ``-1``. If using chunked transfer encoding, the body length will also be ``-1``.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_method_get_downloaded_bytes:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`int<class_int>` **get_downloaded_bytes** **(** **)** |const|

Returns the number of bytes this HTTPRequest downloaded.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_method_get_http_client_status:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Status<enum_HTTPClient_Status>` **get_http_client_status** **(** **)** |const|

Returns the current status of the underlying :ref:`HTTPClient<class_HTTPClient>`. See :ref:`Status<enum_HTTPClient_Status>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_HTTPRequest_method_request:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Error<enum_@GlobalScope_Error>` **request** **(** :ref:`String<class_String>` url, :ref:`PackedStringArray<class_PackedStringArray>` custom_headers=PackedStringArray(), :ref:`Method<enum_HTTPClient_Method>` method=0, :ref:`String<class_String>` request_data="" **)**

Creates request on the underlying :ref:`HTTPClient<class_HTTPClient>`. If there is no configuration errors, it tries to connect using :ref:`HTTPClient.connect_to_host<class_HTTPClient_method_connect_to_host>` and passes parameters onto :ref:`HTTPClient.request<class_HTTPClient_method_request>`.

Returns :ref:`@GlobalScope.OK<class_@GlobalScope_constant_OK>` if request is successfully created. (Does not imply that the server has responded), :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_UNCONFIGURED<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_UNCONFIGURED>` if not in the tree, :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_BUSY<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_BUSY>` if still processing previous request, :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER>` if given string is not a valid URL format, or :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_CANT_CONNECT<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_CANT_CONNECT>` if not using thread and the :ref:`HTTPClient<class_HTTPClient>` cannot connect to host.

\ **Note:** When ``method`` is :ref:`HTTPClient.METHOD_GET<class_HTTPClient_constant_METHOD_GET>`, the payload sent via ``request_data`` might be ignored by the server or even cause the server to reject the request (check `RFC 7231 section 4.3.1 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7231#section-4.3.1>`__ for more details). As a workaround, you can send data as a query string in the URL (see :ref:`String.uri_encode<class_String_method_uri_encode>` for an example).

\ **Note:** It's recommended to use transport encryption (TLS) and to avoid sending sensitive information (such as login credentials) in HTTP GET URL parameters. Consider using HTTP POST requests or HTTP headers for such information instead.

.. _class_HTTPRequest_method_request_raw:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Error<enum_@GlobalScope_Error>` **request_raw** **(** :ref:`String<class_String>` url, :ref:`PackedStringArray<class_PackedStringArray>` custom_headers=PackedStringArray(), :ref:`Method<enum_HTTPClient_Method>` method=0, :ref:`PackedByteArray<class_PackedByteArray>` request_data_raw=PackedByteArray() **)**

Creates request on the underlying :ref:`HTTPClient<class_HTTPClient>` using a raw array of bytes for the request body. If there is no configuration errors, it tries to connect using :ref:`HTTPClient.connect_to_host<class_HTTPClient_method_connect_to_host>` and passes parameters onto :ref:`HTTPClient.request<class_HTTPClient_method_request>`.

Returns :ref:`@GlobalScope.OK<class_@GlobalScope_constant_OK>` if request is successfully created. (Does not imply that the server has responded), :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_UNCONFIGURED<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_UNCONFIGURED>` if not in the tree, :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_BUSY<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_BUSY>` if still processing previous request, :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER>` if given string is not a valid URL format, or :ref:`@GlobalScope.ERR_CANT_CONNECT<class_@GlobalScope_constant_ERR_CANT_CONNECT>` if not using thread and the :ref:`HTTPClient<class_HTTPClient>` cannot connect to host.
