A lightweight HTTP client optimized for use with actions, TypeScript with generics and async await.
## Features
- HTTP client with TypeScript generics and async/await/Promises
- Typings included so no need to acquire separately (great for intellisense and no versioning drift)
- [Proxy support](https://help.github.com/en/actions/automating-your-workflow-with-github-actions/about-self-hosted-runners#using-a-proxy-server-with-self-hosted-runners) just works with actions and the runner
- Targets ES2019 (runner runs actions with node 12+). Only supported on node 12+.
- Basic, Bearer and PAT Support out of the box. Extensible handlers for others.
- Redirects supported
## Install
```
npm install @actions/http-client --save
```

* Redirects (3xx) will be followed by default.
See [HTTP tests](./__tests__) for detailed examples.
## Debugging
