你也可以检查具有完整客户端功能的Restlet，它比httppurlconnection或Apache HTTP Client(我们可以作为连接器使用)等底层库更面向REST。

最好的问候, 杰罗姆Louvel

你可以试试拉帕。让我们知道你的反馈。 并随时记录问题或预期的功能。

我最近尝试了从square的Retrofit Library，它很棒，你可以很容易地调用你的rest API。 基于注释的配置使我们摆脱了大量的锅炉板编码。

这是一个老问题(2008年)，所以现在的选择比当时多得多:

Apache CXF有三个不同的REST客户端选项 泽西岛(上面提到过)。 Spring RestTemplate被Spring WebClient取代 公共HTTP客户端为旧的Java项目构建自己的。

更新(2020年仍然活跃的项目):

Apache HTTP Components (4.2) Fluent adapter - Basic replacement for JDK, used by several other candidates in this list. Better than old Commons HTTP Client 3 and easier to use for building your own REST client. You'll have to use something like Jackson for JSON parsing support and you can use HTTP components URIBuilder to construct resource URIs similar to Jersey/JAX-RS Rest client. HTTP components also supports NIO but I doubt you will get better performance than BIO given the short requestnature of REST. Apache HttpComponents 5 has HTTP/2 support. OkHttp - Basic replacement for JDK, similar to http components, used by several other candidates in this list. Supports newer HTTP protocols (SPDY and HTTP2). Works on Android. Unfortunately it does not offer a true reactor-loop based async option (see Ning and HTTP components above). However if you use the newer HTTP2 protocol this is less of a problem (assuming connection count is problem). Ning Async-http-client - provides NIO support. Previously known as Async-http-client by Sonatype. Feign wrapper for lower level http clients (okhttp, apache httpcomponents). Auto-creates clients based on interface stubs similar to some Jersey and CXF extensions. Strong spring integration. Retrofit - wrapper for lower level http clients (okhttp). Auto-creates clients based on interface stubs similar to some Jersey and CXF extensions. Volley wrapper for jdk http client, by google google-http wrapper for jdk http client, or apache httpcomponents, by google Unirest wrapper for jdk http client, by kong Resteasy JakartaEE wrapper for jdk http client, by jboss, part of jboss framework jcabi-http wrapper for apache httpcomponents, part of jcabi collection restlet wrapper for apache httpcomponents, part of restlet framework rest-assured wrapper with asserts for easy testing

关于选择HTTP/REST客户端的一个警告。确保检查你的框架栈为HTTP客户端使用了什么，它是如何执行线程的，如果它提供了一个客户端，最好使用相同的客户端。这是如果你使用像Vert。你可能想尝试使用它的后台客户端来参与框架提供的任何总线或反应器循环…否则，请为可能出现的有趣的线程问题做好准备。

我写了一个库，将java接口映射到远程JSON REST服务:

https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/spring-rest-invoker

public interface BookService {
   @RequestMapping("/volumes")
   QueryResult findBooksByTitle(@RequestParam("q") String q);

   @RequestMapping("/volumes/{id}")
   Item findBookById(@PathVariable("id") String id);
}

我大部分时间都使用RestAssured来解析rest服务响应和测试服务。除了Rest Assured之外，我还使用下面的库来与Resful服务进行通信。

a. Jersey Rest客户端

b. Spring RestTemplate

c. Apache HTTP Client
