FastForward HTTP Client

FastForward HTTP Client is a focused integration package for projects that want to resolve a PSR-18 HTTP client from a FastForward-compatible container. It connects Symfony HttpClient to PSR contracts so application code can depend on Psr\Http\Client\ClientInterface while still keeping a direct path to Symfony's native client when needed.

If you are new to the package, start with :doc:`getting-started/installation` and :doc:`getting-started/quickstart`. If you want the shortest path to a full FastForward HTTP stack, consider the fast-forward/http metapackage, which bundles this package together with the matching FastForward HTTP factory provider.

Important

This package does not register PSR-17 factories on its own. To resolve Psr\Http\Client\ClientInterface, your container must already provide Psr\Http\Message\ResponseFactoryInterface and Psr\Http\Message\StreamFactoryInterface. In a FastForward application, the usual solution is to register FastForward\Http\Message\Factory\ServiceProvider\HttpMessageFactoryServiceProvider from fast-forward/http-factory or to install fast-forward/http.
