Android Async Http
This is an asynchronous HTTP client for Android that simplifies network requests by wrapping Apache HttpClient. It provides a callback-based networking library for fetching remote data and communicating with servers without blocking the user interface.
The project includes a multipart HTTP uploader for sending binary files and large data payloads, as well as a JSON parser to convert raw response text into structured data objects. It features a session manager that persists cookies in local application preferences to maintain state across multiple requests.
Additional capabilities include automatic Gzip response decoding to reduce data usage and a request retrying system to handle unstable mobile connectivity. Network operations are offloaded to background worker threads to ensure interface responsiveness.
Features
- Asynchronous HTTP Clients - Provides a non-blocking HTTP client for Android to fetch remote data without freezing the user interface.
- JSON Parsers - Converts raw HTTP response text into structured data objects for use within Android applications.
- JSON Data Parsing - Converts server responses into structured data objects within Android applications for data display.
- JSON Response Parsers - Includes a built-in JSON parser to convert raw HTTP response text into structured data objects.
- Android Network Programming - Facilitates non-blocking asynchronous server communication and remote data fetching for Android apps.
- Network API Wrappers - Provides an asynchronous HTTP client for Android that simplifies requests by wrapping Apache HttpClient.
- Session Management - Maintains user state across multiple network calls by storing and sending HTTP cookies in Android.
- HttpClient Wrappers - Simplifies network requests by providing a high-level wrapper around the Apache HttpClient library.
- HTTP Cookie Persistence - Saves session identifiers to local application storage to maintain user state across app restarts.
- Background Thread Dispatchers - Offloads network operations to background worker threads to ensure the main user interface remains responsive.
- Asynchronous Network Callbacks - Uses a callback-based system to trigger listener methods once background network requests complete.
- Request Retries - Automatically re-triggers failed network calls based on a predefined maximum attempt limit.
- Response Decompression - Automatically decompresses Gzip-encoded response streams to reduce data usage.
