# Faraday!
[](https://travis-ci.org/markbates/faraday_bang) [](https://codeclimate.com/github/markbates/faraday_bang)
[Faraday](https://github.com/lostisland/faraday) is a great HTTP library, but it would be even better if had ! versions of all it's methods to raise errors when the request does not receive a successful response. Enter Farady! (pronounced Faraday Bang).
## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'faraday_bang'
```
And then execute:
```bash
$ bundle
```
Or install it yourself as:
```bash
$ gem install faraday_bang
```
## Usage
Using Faraday! is just as easy as using Faraday, except all you have to do is add a `!` to the Faraday methods.
```ruby
response = Faraday.get!('http://sushi.com/nigiri/sake.json')
```
If a response is not successful, then a `Faraday::Bang::ResponseError` error will be raised.
Each of the HTTP error status codes have been given their own sub-class to make catching them even easier. Here are a few examples:
```ruby
Faraday::Bang::Response401Error
Faraday::Bang::Response404Error
Faraday::Bang::Response500Error
Faraday::Bang::Response503Error
```
## But Wait! There's More!
As a special added bonus an `as_json` method has been added to `Faraday::Response` to make it easier to JSON bodies back as a Ruby Hash.
```ruby
response = Faraday.get!('http://example.com/example.json')
json = response.as_json
puts json # => {"name"=>"Mark"}
```
