Dispatch Reboot

Build Status

Dispatch reboot is a rewrite of the Dispatch library for HTTP interaction in Scala, using
async-http-client, commonly called AHC, as its underlying transport. For more info, see the
Dispatch documentation site.

Minimum requirements:

  • Java >= 11 (tested against 11, 17, and 21)
  • Scala 2.13 or >= 3.3.3

Getting Dispatch

Stable releases of Dispatch are published to Maven Central. As such, you can pull in the current
stable release by simply adding a library dependency to your project for the correct version.

To get the latest stable release, 2.0.0, simply add the following to your build.sbt:

scala
libraryDependencies += "org.dispatchhttp" %% "dispatch-core" % "2.0.0"

If Gradle is more your style, you could also use this style:

scala
implementation "org.dispatchhttp:dispatch-core_2.13:2.0.0"

Snapshot releases

We irregularly release snapshots to Sonatype snapshots. To use it you'll need
to add the snapshots repository to your project and pull the relevant snapshot:

scala
resolvers += "Sonatype OSS Snapshots" at "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots" libraryDependencies += "org.dispatchhttp" %% "dispatch-core" % "2.1.0-SNAPSHOT"

Versioning and Support

Dispatch version numbers loosely follow SemVer. The version number format is:

[major].[minor].[patch]

A distinct (major, minor) combination is called a "release series" or "series" for our purposes.

The next feature release development happens on master.

The following chart outlines what versions of Dispatch support what versions of AHC and Scala and
their current support status:

VersionAHC VersionScala VersionsSupportBranch
0.10.01.7.112.9.3,2.10None
0.11.21.8.102.9.3,2.10,2.11None
0.11.41.9.402.10,2.11None
0.12.31.9.402.11,2.12None
0.13.32.0.382.11,2.12None
0.14.12.1.22.11,2.12None
1.0.32.5.42.11,2.12None1.0.x
1.1.32.10.42.12,2.13None1.1.x

2.0.0-SNAPSHOT3.0.02.13,3.3.3Full2.0.x
2.1.0-SNAPSHOT3.0.02.13,3.3.3Developmentmain

Because the AsyncHttpClient does not adhere to semantic versioning, and its versions can increment
quite quickly at times, beginning with 0.14 Dispatch will only use the latest (major, minor) AHC
version that's available at the time its being developed. You may not be able to find a Dispatch
version for every version of AHC if AHC went through a quick release clip.

Upon request, we may release a patch version of Dispatch with a newer version of AHC if the new
version is binary compatible with the version that series was originally released with.
