The IBMStreams/streamsx.inet toolkit project is an open source IBM InfoSphere Streams toolkit project supporting common internet protocols, such as HTTP, WebSockets, etc.

Note that development is proceeding on two branches:

• The master branch is the main development stream and contains operators and functions which are available on all supported platforms. A subset of this operators is shipped with the Streams product.
• The branch HTTPRequestAsync contains a new operator which is designed to work well with HTTP(S) (REST) services in asynchronous manner. It should be considered pre-release.

This toolkit implements the NLS feature. Use the guidelines for the message bundle that are described in The messages and the NLS for toolkits
