For other platforms, install options, how to build from source, and more, take a look at ourDocumentation.

Once you have the library, look at ourtutorial to use the http_client. It walks through how to setup a project to use the C++ Rest SDK and make a basic Http request.

To use from CMake:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.9)project(main)find_package(cpprestsdk REQUIRED)add_executable(main main.cpp)target_link_libraries(mainPRIVATE cpprestsdk::cpprest)

• Features - HTTP client/server, JSON, URI, asynchronous streams, WebSockets client, oAuth
• PPL Tasks - A powerful model for composing asynchronous operations based on C++ 11 features
• Platforms - Windows desktop, Windows Store (UWP), Linux, OS X, Unix, iOS, and Android
• Support forVisual Studio 2015 and 2017 with debugger visualizers

Is there a feature missing that you'd like to see, or found a bug that you have a fix for? Or do you have an idea or just interest in helping out in building the library? Let us know and we'd love to work with you. For a good starting point on where we are headed and feature ideas, take a look at ourrequested features and bugs.

Big or small we'd like to take yourcontributions back to help improve the C++ Rest SDK for everyone.

We'd love to get your review score, whether good or bad, but even more than that, we want to fix your problem. If you submit your issue as a Review, we won't be able to respond to your problem and ask any follow-up questions that may be necessary. The most efficient way to do that is to open an issue in ourissue tracker.
