AlpacaElixir v2.1.0 Alpaca.Client View Source

Client responsible for making requests to Alpaca and handling the responses.

This client allows us to define all of our HTTP request logic and configuration in one place so that we can easily change or adapt this away from all of the other business logic of our library.

We have access to HTTP request types on this client and it will automatically use a base url as well as set all the necessary headers for us.

We have access to GET, POST, PATCH, and DELETE HTTP requests using this client.

Example usage

Alpaca.Client.get("/path", %{query_param: "value"})
Alpaca.Client.post("/path", %{param1: "value"})
Alpaca.Client.patch("/path", %{param1: "value"})
Alpaca.Client.delete("/path")
