## go-httpclient
**requires Go 1.1+** as of `v0.4.0` the API has been completely re-written for Go 1.1 (for a Go
1.0.x compatible release see [1adef50](https://github.com/mreiferson/go-httpclient/tree/1adef50))
[![Build
Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/mreiferson/go-httpclient.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/mreiferson/go-httpclient)
Provides an HTTP Transport that implements the `RoundTripper` interface and
can be used as a built in replacement for the standard library's, providing:
* connection timeouts
* request timeouts
This is a thin wrapper around `http.Transport` that sets dial timeouts and uses
Go's internal timer scheduler to call the Go 1.1+ `CancelRequest()` API.
### Example
```go
transport := &httpclient.Transport{
ConnectTimeout: 1*time.Second,
RequestTimeout: 10*time.Second,
ResponseHeaderTimeout: 5*time.Second,
}
defer transport.Close()
client := &http.Client{Transport: transport}
req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", "http://127.0.0.1/test", nil)
resp, err := client.Do(req)
if err != nil {
return err
}
defer resp.Body.Close()
```
*Note:* you will want to re-use a single client object rather than creating one for each request, otherwise you will end up [leaking connections](https://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=4049#c3).
