Package: libhijk-perl (0.28-2)

simple perl module for easily accessing HTTP services

Hijk is a specialized HTTP Client that does nothing but transport the response body back. It does not feature as a "user agent", but as a dumb client. It is suitable for connecting to data servers transporting via HTTP rather then web servers.

Most of HTTP features like proxy, redirect, Transfer-Encoding, or SSL are not supported at all. For those requirements there already are many good HTTP clients like HTTP::Tiny, Furl or LWP::UserAgent.
