.NET Rest Client Frameworks

Question

I\'m looking for the best .NET C# framework for building a REST Http client. My requirements are as follows:

• Unit testable (mockable)
• Supports multi-p

Answer 1

There is also RestSharp. I've inherited it on some projects and haven't fully explored it myself, so I'm afraid I cannot say if it meets your requirements.

The developer of RestSharp is active in the .Net community, so if the published documentation doesn't cover something I would say there is a good chance of getting some assistance.

Answer 2

Also take a look at the Microsoft.Http client in http://wcf.codeplex.com/ It will be included in future versions of the framework. It is relatively easy to unit test with.

Answer 3

You can also take a look to Spring.Rest client Framework : http://springframework.net/index.html#spring-rest-1.0.0-released

Answer 4

Check the Flurl library https://flurl.dev/ Flurl is available on NuGet and is free for commercial use. It runs on a wide variety of platforms, including .NET Framework, .NET Core, Xamarin, and UWP.

Answer 5

I have just submitted a patch for the aforementioned problem with mocking file uploads using Hammock and has been accepted into the trunk. See issue 13 for more details.

Answer 6

Microsoft HTTP Client Libraries is good option to consider.
