What is the use of SharedHttpClient

[domis...@gmail.com]

Hi,

As the title entails what is the use of SharedHttpClient and what are the benefits of using it.

In what scenarios and cases should it be used, especially when working with WebClient, that afaik, can be called from any context?

If in our use, each verticle has its own client, is there a purpose to use this?

Is the SharedHttpClient only meant to be used when passed around many verticles?

If so, does that not overlap how the WebClient works?

Hi,

I believe this doc section should answer your question about the purpose of the shared HttpClient:

https://vertx.io/docs/vertx-core/java/#_client_sharing

A WebClient instance can be created from any HttpClient, including a shared one.

Regards,

Thomas

Hi,

Isint it safe already to share a webclient around, since it uses the caller eventloop the execute?

[Thomas SEGISMONT]

It is safe to share a WebClient instance. The added value of a shared client is that:

- it can be retrieved by name in a verticle instance

- it can be configured to use several event loops

"- it can be configured to use several event loops "

Hi Thomas,

Is it possible to use several event loops as part of WebClient(HttpClient) even without explicitly setting 'shared=true' on the Webclient?

I am using a WebClient which is created outside of verticles, and all verticle instances re-use the same webclient instance to make requests. In this case, is there any need for setting 'shared=true' on this common webclient?

Thanks
