 # simple HTTP client
 
 ## Overview
+It provides simple routine to perform http requests, and get response.
 
 ## Requirements
-* Eiffel cURL library
+* One of the following
-* cURL dynamic libraries in the PATH or the current directory (.dll or .so)
+	- Eiffel cURL library
+		- cURL dynamic libraries in the PATH or the current directory (.dll or .so)
+	- Eiffel Net library 
+		- and optionally Eiffel NetSSL library to support https://
 
 This means on Windows, do not forget to copy the libcurl.dll (and related) either in the same directory of the executable, or ensure the .dll are in the PATH environment.
 
+It is possible to exclude the libcurl implementation xor the Eiffel Net implementation:
+	In the .ecf configuration file of your project, you can use the following custom variables:
+
+	* Disable the libcurl implementation
+```
+		<variable name="libcurl_http_client_disabled" value="True"/>
+```
+
+	* Disable the net implementation
+```
+		<variable name="net_http_client_disabled" value="True"/>
+```
+
+	* If you disabled both, the http client will not work as expected.
+
+For the net implementation (using EiffelNet), if you need https:// support, you need to enabled the ssl support with the custom variables :
+```
+		<variable name="netssl_http_client_enabled" value="True"/>
+```
+	* By default, SSL is not included (mostly because it is sometime a pain to get the needed dynamic libraries .dll or .so)
+
 ## Usage
+* To build code that is portable across the libcurl or net implementation of http_client library, use the DEFAULT_HTTP_CLIENT
+
+```
+	cl: DEFAULT_HTTP_CLIENT
+	sess: HTTP_CLIENT_SESSION
+	create cl
+	sess := cl.new_session ("http://example.com")
+	if attached sess.get ("/path-to-test") as l_response then
+		if not l_response.error_occurred then
+			if attached l_response.body as l_body then
+				print (l_body)
+			end
+		end
+	end
+```
 
 ## Examples
+* See the tests/test-safe.ecf project to see how to use.
+* Examples will come in the future.
