# The Play WS API
-Sometimes you want to call other HTTP services from within a Play application. Play supports this via its `play.libs.WS` library, which provides a way to make asynchronous HTTP calls.
+Sometimes we would like to call other HTTP services from within a Play application. Play supports this via its [WS library](api/java/play/libs/ws/package-summary.html), which provides a way to make asynchronous HTTP calls.
-A call made by `play.libs.WS` should return a `Promise<WS.Response>`, which you can handle later with Play’s asynchronous mechanisms.
+There are two important parts to using the WS API: making a request, and processing the response. We'll discuss how to make both GET and POST HTTP requests first, and then show how to process the response from the WS. Finally, we'll discuss some common use cases.
-## Imports
+## Making a Request
-To use WS, first import the following packages:
+To use WS, first add `javaWs` to your `build.sbt` file:
-@[ws-imports](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+'''scala
+libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
+ javaWs
+)
+'''
-## Making HTTP calls
+Now any controller or component that wants to use WS will have to add the following imports and then declare a dependency on the `WSClient`:
-To make an HTTP request, you start with `WS.url()` to specify the URL. Then you get a builder that you can use to specify HTTP options, such as setting headers. You end by calling a method corresponding to the HTTP method you want to use:
+@[ws-controller](code/javaguide/ws/Application.java)
-@[get-call](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+To build an HTTP request, you start with `ws.url()` to specify the URL.
-Alternatively:
+@[ws-holder](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
-@[post-call](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+This returns a [`WSRequest`](api/java/play/libs/ws/WSRequest.html) that you can use to specify various HTTP options, such as setting headers. You can chain calls together to construct complex requests.
-## Recovery
+@[ws-complex-holder](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
-If you want to recover from an error in the call transparently, you can use `recover` to substitute a response:
+You end by calling a method corresponding to the HTTP method you want to use. This ends the chain, and uses all the options defined on the built request in the [`WSRequest`](api/java/play/libs/ws/WSRequest.html).
-@[get-call-and-recover](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+@[ws-get](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
-## Retrieving the HTTP response result
+This returns a [`Promise<WSResponse>`](api/java/play/libs/F.Promise.html) where the [`WSResponse`](api/java/play/libs/ws/WSResponse.html) contains the data returned from the server.
-The call is made asynchronously and you need to manipulate it as a `Promise<WS.Response>` to get the actual content. You can compose several promises and end up with a `Promise<Result>` that can be handled directly by the Play server:
+### Request with authentication
-@[simple-call](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+If you need to use HTTP authentication, you can specify it in the builder, using a username, password, and an [`WSAuthScheme`](api/java/play/libs/ws/WSAuthScheme.html). Options for the `WSAuthScheme` are `BASIC`, `DIGEST`, `KERBEROS`, `NONE`, `NTLM`, and `SPNEGO`.
+@[ws-auth](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
-## Composing results
+### Request with follow redirects
-If you want to make multiple calls in sequence, this can be achieved using `flatMap`:
+If an HTTP call results in a 302 or a 301 redirect, you can automatically follow the redirect without having to make another call.
-@[composed-call](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+@[ws-follow-redirects](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
-## Configuring the HTTP client
+### Request with query parameters
-The HTTP client can be configured globally in `application.conf` via a few properties:
+You can specify query parameters for a request.

+@[ws-query-parameter](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)

+### Request with additional headers
+
+@[ws-header](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+For example, if you are sending plain text in a particular format, you may want to define the content type explicitly.
+
+@[ws-header-content-type](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+### Request with time out
+
+If you wish to specify a request timeout, you can use `setRequestTimeout` to set a value in milliseconds. A value of `-1` can be used to set an infinite timeout.
+
+@[ws-timeout](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+### Submitting form data
+
+To post url-form-encoded data you can set the proper header and formatted data.
+
+@[ws-post-form-data](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+### Submitting JSON data
+
+The easiest way to post JSON data is to use the [[JSON library|JavaJsonActions]].
+
+@[json-imports](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+@[ws-post-json](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+## Processing the Response
+
+Working with the [`WSResponse`](api/java/play/libs/ws/WSResponse.html) is done by mapping inside the `Promise`.
+
+### Processing a response as JSON
+
+You can process the response as a `JsonNode` by calling `response.asJson()`.
+
+@[ws-response-json](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+### Processing a response as XML
+
+Similarly, you can process the response as XML by calling `response.asXml()`.
+
+@[ws-response-xml](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+### Processing large responses
+
+When you are downloading a large file or document, `WS` allows you to get the response body as an `InputStream` so you can process the data without loading the entire content into memory at once.
+
+@[ws-response-input-stream](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+This example will read the response body and write it to a file in buffered increments.
+
+## Common Patterns and Use Cases
+
+### Chaining WS calls
+
+You can chain WS calls by using `flatMap`.
+
+@[ws-composition](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+### Exception recovery
+If you want to recover from an exception in the call, you can use `recover` or `recoverWith` to substitute a response.
+
+@[ws-recover](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+### Using in a controller
+
+You can map a `Promise<WSResponse>` to a `Promise<Result>` that can be handled directly by the Play server, using the asynchronous action pattern defined in [[Handling Asynchronous Results|JavaAsync]].
+
+@[ws-action](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+## Using WSClient
+
+WSClient is a wrapper around the underlying [AsyncHttpClient](https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client). It is useful for defining multiple clients with different profiles, or using a mock.
+
+The default client can be called from the WSClient class:
+
+@[ws-client](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+You can instantiate a WSClient directly from code and use this for making requests. Note that you must follow a particular series of steps to use HTTPS correctly if you are defining a client directly:
+
+@[ws-custom-client-imports](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+@[ws-custom-client](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+> NOTE: if you instantiate a NingWSClient object, it does not use the WS plugin system, and so will not be automatically closed in `Application.onStop`. Instead, the client must be manually shutdown using `client.close()` when processing has completed. This will release the underlying ThreadPoolExecutor used by AsyncHttpClient. Failure to close the client may result in out of memory exceptions (especially if you are reloading an application frequently in development mode).
+
+You can also get access to the underlying `AsyncHttpClient`.
+
+@[ws-underlying-client](code/javaguide/ws/JavaWS.java)
+
+This is important in a couple of cases. WS has a couple of limitations that require access to the client:
+
+* `WS` does not support multi part form upload directly. You can use the underlying client with [RequestBuilder.addBodyPart](https://asynchttpclient.github.io/async-http-client/apidocs/com/ning/http/client/RequestBuilder.html).
+* `WS` does not support streaming body upload. In this case, you should use the `FeedableBodyGenerator` provided by AsyncHttpClient.
+
+## Configuring WS
+
+Use the following properties in `application.conf` to configure the WS client:
+
+* `play.ws.followRedirects`: Configures the client to follow 301 and 302 redirects *(default is **true**)*.
+* `play.ws.useProxyProperties`: To use the system http proxy settings(http.proxyHost, http.proxyPort) *(default is **true**)*.
+* `play.ws.useragent`: To configure the User-Agent header field.
+* `play.ws.compressionEnabled`: Set it to true to use gzip/deflater encoding *(default is **false**)*.
+
+### Timeouts
+
+There are 3 different timeouts in WS. Reaching a timeout causes the WS request to interrupt.
+
+* `play.ws.timeout.connection`: The maximum time to wait when connecting to the remote host *(default is **120 seconds**)*.
+* `play.ws.timeout.idle`: The maximum time the request can stay idle (connection is established but waiting for more data) *(default is **120 seconds**)*.
+* `play.ws.timeout.request`: The total time you accept a request to take (it will be interrupted even if the remote host is still sending data) *(default is **120 seconds**)*.
+
+The request timeout can be overridden for a specific connection with `setTimeout()` (see "Making a Request" section).
+
+## Configuring WS with SSL
+
+To configure WS for use with HTTP over SSL/TLS (HTTPS), please see [[Configuring WS SSL|WsSSL]].
+
+### Configuring AsyncClientConfig
+
+The following advanced settings can be configured on the underlying AsyncHttpClientConfig.
+Please refer to the [AsyncHttpClientConfig Documentation](https://asynchttpclient.github.io/async-http-client/apidocs/com/ning/http/client/AsyncHttpClientConfig.Builder.html) for more information.
+
+* `play.ws.ning.allowPoolingConnection`
+* `play.ws.ning.allowSslConnectionPool`
+* `play.ws.ning.ioThreadMultiplier`
+* `play.ws.ning.maxConnectionsPerHost`
+* `play.ws.ning.maxConnectionsTotal`
+* `play.ws.ning.maxConnectionLifeTime`
+* `play.ws.ning.idleConnectionInPoolTimeout`
+* `ws.ning.webSocketIdleTimeout`
+* `play.ws.ning.maxNumberOfRedirects`
+* `play.ws.ning.maxRequestRetry`
+* `play.ws.ning.removeQueryParamsOnRedirect`
+* `play.ws.ning.useRawUrl`
