Scala:how to write a simple HTTP GET request client in Scala (with a timeout)

Scala cookbook:http://scalacookbook.com/

@throws (Classof[java.io.ioexception]) @throws (classof[java.net.sockettimeoutexception]) def get (url:string,        Connecttimeout:int =5000,        readtimeout:int =5000,        requestmethod:string = "GET") = {    Import java.net.{ URL, httpurlconnection}    val connection = (new URL (URL)). openconnection.asinstanceof[httpurlconnection]    Connection.setconnecttimeout (connecttimeout)    connection.setreadtimeout (readtimeout)    Connection.setrequestmethod (Requestmethod)    val inputstream = Connection.getinputstream    val content = Io. Source.frominputstream (InputStream). mkstring    if (inputstream! = null) inputstream.close    content}

If want to set the Request property, add:
For (header <-headers) {
   Val headerdetails = Header.split (":")
   if (headerdetails.size<=2) {
      Connection.setrequestproperty (headerdetails (0), headerdetails (1));
   }
}
