Hi Ulf,
I've done HTTP requests in Flink using OkHttp library
<http://square.github.io/okhttp/>. I found it practical and easy to use.
Here is how I used it to make a POST request for each incoming element in
the stream and ouput the response:
DataStream<String> stream = ....
stream.map(new RichMapFunction<String, String>() {
OkHttpClient client;
@Override
public void open(Configuration config) throws IOException {
client = new OkHttpClient();
}
@Override
public String map(String in) throws Exception {
okhttp3.Request request = new okhttp3.Request.Builder()
.url("http://localhost:8080";)
.post(RequestBody.create(MediaType.parse("text/plain;
charset=utf-8"), in))
.build();
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
if (response.code() != 200) {
throw new Exception("Failed request");
}
String result = response.body().string();
return result;
}
})
I hope this helps.
Best,
Yassine
