Artax is a no longer maintained asynchronous HTTP client for PHP based on Amp. Its API simplifies standards-compliant HTTP resource traversal and RESTful web service consumption without obscuring the underlying protocol. The library manually implements HTTP over TCP sockets; as such it has no dependency on ext/curl.
This repository is deprecated in favor of amphp/http-client.
It still exists to keep Packagist working as before.

libcurldependency
