# HTTP GET Arrow Data: Simple Java Client Example

This directory contains a minimal example of an HTTP client implemented in Java. The client:
1. Sends an HTTP GET request to a server.
2. Receives an HTTP 200 response from the server, with the response body containing an Arrow IPC stream of record batches.
3. Adds the record batches to a list as they are received.

To run this example, first start one of the server examples in the parent directory, then:

```sh
mvn package
_JAVA_OPTIONS="--add-opens=java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED" mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="ArrowHttpClient"
```
