Request types

MADE.Networking provides typed request classes for each HTTP method. Each request type handles serialization and deserialization so you don't need to manually call JsonSerializer at every call site.

JSON request types

All JSON request types use System.Text.Json with PropertyNameCaseInsensitive = true for deserialization.

JsonGetNetworkRequest

Makes an HTTP GET request and deserializes the JSON response:

var request = requestFactory.Get("https://api.example.com/users/123");
var user = await request.ExecuteAsync<User>();

JsonPostNetworkRequest

Makes an HTTP POST request with a JSON body and deserializes the response:

var request = requestFactory.Post(
    "https://api.example.com/users",
    JsonSerializer.Serialize(newUser));
var created = await request.ExecuteAsync<User>();

JsonPutNetworkRequest

Makes an HTTP PUT request with a JSON body:

var request = requestFactory.Put(
    "https://api.example.com/users/123",
    JsonSerializer.Serialize(updatedUser));
await request.ExecuteAsync<bool>();

JsonPatchNetworkRequest

Makes an HTTP PATCH request with a JSON body:

var request = requestFactory.Patch(
    "https://api.example.com/users/123",
    JsonSerializer.Serialize(patchData));
await request.ExecuteAsync<User>();

JsonDeleteNetworkRequest

Makes an HTTP DELETE request and optionally deserializes the response:

var request = requestFactory.Delete("https://api.example.com/users/123");
await request.ExecuteAsync<bool>();

Stream request types

StreamGetNetworkRequest

Makes an HTTP GET request and returns the response as a Stream. Useful for downloading files or large payloads:

var request = new StreamGetNetworkRequest(client, "https://api.example.com/files/report.pdf");
var stream = await request.ExecuteAsync<Stream>();

Request identity

Every NetworkRequest instance has a Guid identifier. This is used by the NetworkRequestManager to track and update pending requests. If you create a new request with the same ID, it replaces the pending one in the queue. See Request manager.
