Is this Project dead?
Last leading zero version. Last commit 2 Years ago. 1 Year old PRs. The Maintainer does not answer the Questions since a while...
@jgritman looks pretty dead to me?
@alwin-rewedigital Good question... looks like there are 83 forks of the project. I wonder if any of them have picked up the torch. I use this project quite often and was considering helping out with documentation, but since it seems stale, I will poke around some of the forks and see if any of them are moving forward. I will report back if I find anything.
Sorry, no, it did not. The author also never responded. The best I could offer is that a friend of mine has created a fork that he is cleaning up and updating (https://github.com/dwclark/httpbuilder). I am not sure how far down the rabbit hole he will take it though.
So this particular project is dead and it doesn't appear that there is an official successor. What are people migrating to?
There are other active projects with a dependency on this one, such as: https://github.com/noamt/rest-gradle-plugin
I would suggest to keep an eye on them and see how they address the need.
A buddy of mine has forked and modernized this project, since it appears to be dead. Try out https://github.com/http-builder-ng/http-builder-ng - it is alive and well!
This is an excellent lightweight option, with a nice modern DSL: https://github.com/budjb/http-requests. It is not quite as full-featured yet, but certainly is a nice development experience. The docs are excellent as well.
I just migrated a project to https://github.com/http-builder-ng/http-builder-ng which is under active development, well documented and full of features.
