Hi guys,
I want to use only one HttpClient to request multiple hosts. I use type-safe requests
@Resource("<https://example.com/articles>")
class Articles()

but the result request URL will be <HTTP://localhos/https>:&lt;//example.com/articles&gt;.
I saw <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KTOR-5586> fixed, but not for resources, only plain request.

The `Resource`  annotation accepts a path, not a full URL. You can use the <https://ktor.io/docs/client-default-request.html|DefaultRequest> plugin to set the default URL for all requests.

Thanks <@U017TSBJ2C9> , how can I use 1 http client for multiple resources from mutiple host names.  without Resource I can do it.


You can configure `HttpRequestBuilder` for each request to set the appropriate host. Here is an example:
```@Resource("/get")
class Get()

suspend fun main() {
    val client = HttpClient(CIO) {
        install(Resources)
    }

    val response =  client.get(Get()) {
        url {
            protocol = URLProtocol.HTTPS
            host = "httpbin.org"
        }
    }

    println(response.bodyAsText())
}```

I missed this one. I still have a small concern that I need to explicit specify the host ( which I believe is not “type-safe”. I can set a wrong host or forget to set host).
I still go with your suggestion. Thank you a lot for your help.
