async-minreq

This crate is fork of the crate minreq, with async capabilities. Simple, async minimal-dependency HTTP client. Optional features for json responses (json-using-serde), unicode domains (punycode), http proxies (proxy), and https with various TLS implementations (https-rustls, https-rustls-probe, https-bundled, https-bundled-probe,https-native, and https which is an alias for https-rustls).

Note: some of the dependencies of this crate (especially serde and the various https libraries) are a lot more complicated than this library, and their impact on executable size reflects that.

Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV)

If you don't care about the MSRV, you can ignore this section entirely, including the commands instructed.

We use an MSRV per major release, i.e., with a new major release we reserve the right to change the MSRV.

The current version of this library should always compile with any combination of features excluding the TLS and urlencoding features on Rust 1.71. This is because those dependencies themselves have a higher MSRV.

That said, the crate does still require forcing some dependencies to lower-than-latest versions to actually compile with the older compiler, as these dependencies have upped their MSRV in a patch version. This can be achieved with the following (these just update your Cargo.lock):

cargo update --package=log --precise=0.4.18
cargo update --package=httpdate --precise=1.0.2
cargo update --package=serde_json --precise=1.0.100
cargo update --package=chrono --precise=0.4.23
cargo update --package=num-traits --precise=0.2.18
cargo update --package=libc --precise=0.2.163
