GTMSessionFetcher makes it easy for Cocoa applications to perform http operations. The fetcher is implemented as a wrapper on NSURLSession, so its behavior is asynchronous and uses operating-system settings.

Features include:

  • Simple to build; only one source/header file pair is required
  • Simple to use: takes just two lines of code to fetch a request
  • Supports upload and download sessions
  • Flexible cookie storage
  • Automatic retry on errors, with exponential backoff
  • Support for generating multipart MIME upload streams
  • Easy, convenient logging of http requests and responses
  • Supports plug-in authentication such as with GTMAppAuth
  • Easily testable; self-mocking
  • Automatic rate limiting when created by the GTMSessionFetcherService factory class
  • Fully independent of other projects
