How do I do a HTTP GET in Java? [duplicate]

If you want to stream any webpage, you can use the method below.

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

public class c {

   public static String getHTML(String urlToRead) throws Exception {
      StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder();
      URL url = new URL(urlToRead);
      HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
      conn.setRequestMethod("GET");
      try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
                  new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()))) {
          for (String line; (line = reader.readLine()) != null; ) {
              result.append(line);
          }
      }
      return result.toString();
   }

   public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
   {
     System.out.println(getHTML(args[0]));
   }
}
