>                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-851
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-851
>             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>    Affects Versions: 4.0 Beta 2
>            Reporter: Sami Dalouche
>
> HttpClient API is pretty much low-level, and needs some obscure setup 
> (Registry, ..) to target the common use case (sometimes, you don't care about 
> the low level details, you just
> want to fire an http client, and hit a given web resource).
> I have extracted some supporting code out of my application in the hope to 
> make it widely available for others. It is available at :
> http://www.sirika.com/maven2/releases/com/sirika/httpclienthelpers/com.sirika.httpclienthelpers-assembly/0.1/com.sirika.httpclienthelpers-assembly-0.1-all.zip
> It contains :
> - HttpClientTemplate that automatically open/close connections in case of 
> exceptions.It also provides a kind of generic http error handling mechanism.
> - a spring HttpClientFactoryBean (as well as a helper factory class for 
> httpclient) that allows setting up http client for the common use case 
> - an InputStreamSourceBody that can be used to create POST entities that are 
> repeatable, wrapping a spring InputStreamSource
> - the code for the GZIP interceptors that are documented as examples on 
> httpclient website. 
> The code is still not tested (just extracted that logic from my application), 
> needs some polishing, and a few things like the error handling mechanism 
> still need more thought. But I feel it can be helpful to others.
> So, my question is : can we create a kind of -contrib project for httpclient, 
> that allows people to share their helpers with the community ?
> the code is currently available under under apache v2 license, but I'm 
> willing to adopt whatever licensing/copyright issues that would help to make 
> this available.
> Oh, also, if you want to see the code in action, here's an example of  a REST 
> client that uses it :
> http://www.sirika.com/maven2/releases/com/sirika/pymager/pymager-java-client-assembly/0.11/pymager-java-client-assembly-0.11-all.zip
> (which is another project born out of extracted code from my application, 
> that I'm trying to push as open source ; I just lack time to handle the 
> community / website / etc issues).
