# ol.protocol53.http

Synchronous HTTP transport for bundled protocol53 providers.

This namespace is an internal provider utility, not a general-purpose HTTP
client. Loading it requires Java 11 or newer. Advanced client policy remains
available through a caller-supplied `java.net.http.HttpClient`.

## request

```clojure
(request request)
```

Sends one synchronous HTTP request and returns its response.

Options:

| key             | description
| ----------------|------------
| `:uri`          | Required URI string or component map.
| `:method`       | HTTP method keyword or string (default `:get`).
| `:headers`      | Map of header names to string or sequential values.
| `:query-params` | Map of UTF-8 form-encoded query parameters.
| `:form-params`  | Map encoded as the request body.
| `:body`         | String, `java.io.File`, or `java.io.InputStream`.
| `:as`           | `:string` (default) or `:stream`.
| `:timeout`      | Request timeout in milliseconds.
| `:throw`        | Throw for exceptional statuses unless `false`.
| `:version`      | `:http1.1` or `:http2` (default `:http2`).
| `:client`       | `java.net.http.HttpClient` or request function.

Returns `:status`, vector-valued `:headers`, `:body`, and the negotiated
`:version`. The body is a string by default. With `:as :stream`, it is a
`java.io.InputStream` available after the response headers; the caller must
exhaust or close it. Streaming callers should normally use `:throw false` to
retain ownership of the stream for every status. Exceptional statuses throw
`ExceptionInfo` with the complete response as `ex-data`.
