Migrated the HTTP client implementation from Jetty Client to Vert.x Web Client.
This involved:

  • Updating pom.xml to replace jetty-client with vertx-web-client.
  • Removing getCookieStore() from IHttpClient as it is not directly supported in the same way and wasn't widely used.
  • Creating VertxHttpClient to hold the Vert.x instance and WebClient.
  • Updating HttpClientModule to configure the WebClient options (mapping pool size, timeouts, etc.) and produce the VertxHttpClient bean.
  • Rewriting HttpClientWrapper to use WebClient for request building and execution. It supports both synchronous (blocking) and asynchronous execution modes, preserving the existing interface contracts.
  • Ensuring CompletableFuture is used to bridge the async Vert.x API to the synchronous send() method.
  • Re-implementing a check for maximum response body size to prevent large payloads from causing issues, similar to the previous implementation.
  • Verified changes with existing tests.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 4 (Complex) | ⏱️ ~45 minutes

  • Pay special attention to:
    • HttpClientWrapper.java — correctness of request mapping (headers, basic auth, query params), timeout conversion, body encoding, and max-length enforcement.
    • HttpClientModule.java — Vert.x and WebClientOptions configuration, lifecycle and shutdown behavior.
    • VertxHttpClient.java — class rename/field changes and any callers expecting previous class name or Jetty API.
    • Public API change: removal of IHttpClient.getCookieStore() and any usages across the codebase.

Poem

🐰 I hopped from Jetty docks to Vert.x streams,
Async leaves rustle, web-client dreams,
Headers and queries now dance in queues,
Cookies unloaded — lighter news,
A rabbit cheers the new request hues. 🥕

20-61: Wire maxConnectionsQueued to setMaxWaitQueueSize; document or remove unused buffer/auth configs.

The Vert.x setMaxWaitQueueSize is indeed the correct mapping for Jetty's maxConnectionsQueued setting. The code currently accepts this parameter but leaves it unused, which will confuse operators who set it expecting an effect.

The following configuration properties remain wired in the method signature but are not mapped in the Vert.x options:

  • maxConnectionsQueued — should use options.setMaxWaitQueueSize(maxConnectionsQueued)
  • requestBufferSize, responseBufferSize — Vert.x handles buffers dynamically; either remove from signature or document as deprecated
  • disableWWWAuthenticationValidation — Vert.x WebClient doesn't auto-handle 401; either remove or document the behavioral difference

3-16: Simple wrapper looks good; consider making it immutable.

The class is a thin holder for Vertx and WebClient and looks correct. If you don't need runtime reassignment, consider dropping @Setter and making the fields final to avoid accidental reconfiguration from other beans.

66-77: RequestWrapper diagnostics (query params, toString) are fine; note params remain URL-encoded.

The parsing of the initial URI query string into queryParamsMap and its inclusion in toMap() / toString() is useful for debugging and does not affect the underlying HTTP request (since requestAbs already includes the query). Just be aware that keys/values are left URL‑encoded, which slightly changes any logging compared to a decoded representation.

No change requested here.

Also applies to: 78-94, 233-235, 271-275


39-49: Vert.x WebClient wiring verified and looks good.

The IHttpClient.Method enum contains only standard HTTP methods (HEAD, GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH)—all natively supported by Vert.x's io.vertx.core.http.HttpMethod enum. The HttpMethod.valueOf(method.name()) mapping is safe and will not throw IllegalArgumentException.


311-317: I need to verify a few more things to understand if this is truly a breaking change from the previous Jetty behavior.

Now let me search the codebase for any references to old implementation patterns or migration notes:

Review comment is technically valid but contextually acceptable; verify intentionality.

Vert.x MultiMap supports multiple header values (multi-valued headers like Set-Cookie are common in HTTP), but the convertHeaderToMap method converts it to Map<String, String>, retaining only the last value per key. This is a valid concern.

However, verification reveals:

  1. Vert.x MultiMap.get() returns the first value when multiple values exist for a header, not the last—the review's assumption about "last value" warrants clarification.

  2. The IResponse interface already specifies Map<String, String> as the return type, suggesting this single-valued design was intentional.

  3. Current usage (HttpCallsTask.java line 147) treats headers as single-valued: response.getHttpHeader().get(CONTENT_TYPE).

This is not a breaking change IF the prior Jetty implementation also returned single-valued headers. Without git history confirming otherwise, the interface contract suggests this was the existing behavior. If multi-valued headers (e.g., Set-Cookie) are required in the future, refactoring to Map<String, List<String>> would be appropriate.

Confirm whether the prior Jetty implementation supported multi-valued header access, and whether this application ever relied on it.


96-101: Concern about realm and preemptive parameters being ignored is valid; however, the reference to lines 121-131 appears incorrect.

The web search confirms that Vert.x HttpRequest.basicAuthentication only takes id/password and does not support realm or preemptive parameters. The implementation correctly ignores these parameters because the underlying Vert.x API does not accept them.

However, the reference to "Also applies to: 121-131" is misleading—those lines contain setBodyEntity, which is unrelated to authentication. Additionally, a search of the entire repository found no call sites for setBasicAuthentication, so there is no evidence within the codebase of callers that would be affected by the parameter change.

If this is part of a public API consumed by external code, please verify whether any callers rely on realm or preemptive semantics that are now lost. If this method is unused, clarify the intent. Also, clarify the reference to lines 121-131 or remove it.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

🧩 Analysis chain

Blocking send() + async error handling: avoid hanging callers and event-loop blocking.

A few intertwined concerns here:

  1. Sync send() blocks on a future.
    future.get() will block the calling thread until the Vert.x request completes. That preserves the old “blocking send” API, but if send() is ever called from a Vert.x event-loop thread, it will block that loop. Consider documenting that send() must be called from a worker / blocking thread, not an event loop.

  2. Async send(ICompleteListener) swallows failures.
    When doSend completes with failure (network error, timeout, or maxLength violation), the ICompleteListener is never invoked; you only log the error in the else branch. That means callers using the async API have no signal that the request finished with an error and can hang waiting for completion.

    You probably want a strategy such as:

    • invoking onComplete with a synthetic IResponse describing the failure, or
    • extending the callback contract to surface failures explicitly.
  3. Interrupted status dropped in sync path.
    In send(), you catch InterruptedException and wrap it in HttpRequestException without re‑setting the thread interrupt flag. A small improvement would be:

    } catch (InterruptedException | ExecutionException e) {
        if (e instanceof InterruptedException) {
            Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
        }
        throw new HttpRequestException(e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
    }

Given this touches public behavior, I’d recommend at least deciding and documenting what guarantees send(ICompleteListener) should provide on error, and ensuring no production paths call send() from an event-loop thread.

Fix async error handling and interrupt flag restoration in HttpClientWrapper.

Two critical issues confirmed:

  1. Async send(ICompleteListener) never invokes callback on failure (lines 254-271): When doSend fails, the code only logs the error and never calls completeListener.onComplete(), causing async callers to hang indefinitely. The failure branch must invoke the callback with a synthetic response or extend the contract to signal errors explicitly.

  2. InterruptedException not restoring thread interrupt flag (lines 154-170): The sync send() catches InterruptedException without calling Thread.currentThread().interrupt(), which loses the interrupt signal and can break cancellation semantics in calling code.

The concern about blocking on event-loop threads does not apply to this codebase—send() is called from runtime.submitCallable(), which uses ExecutorService.submit() (worker threads), not Vert.x event-loop threads. However, documenting the blocking nature of send() would prevent future misuse.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In src/main/java/ai/labs/eddi/engine/httpclient/impl/HttpClientWrapper.java
around lines 154-170 and 254-271, fix two issues: (1) In the synchronous send()
catch block for InterruptedException restore the thread interrupt flag by
calling Thread.currentThread().interrupt() before handling/throwing so the
interrupt is not lost; (2) In the asynchronous doSend/send(ICompleteListener)
failure branch ensure the completeListener is always invoked on error (pass a
synthetic Response object indicating failure or a clearly documented
error-response) so async callers are not left hanging; also add a brief Javadoc
note on the blocking nature of send() to prevent future misuse.

The Vertx instance is injected but Quarkus provides Vert.x through the quarkus-vertx extension. You need to add the Quarkus Vert.x dependency to pom.xml for this injection to work:

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
    <artifactId>quarkus-vertx</artifactId>
</dependency>

Without this dependency, the Vertx injection will fail at runtime.

The realm and preemptive parameters are ignored. The Vert.x basicAuthentication() method only takes username and password and always sends credentials preemptively. This is a behavioral change from the Jetty implementation that could affect authentication with servers that require non-preemptive authentication or specific realms.

Consider documenting this limitation or, if realm-based authentication is needed, you may need to manually construct the Authorization header.

Using CompletableFuture.get() in the synchronous send() method will block the calling thread, which could be problematic in a Vert.x or reactive context where blocking operations should be avoided on event loop threads.

Since this is wrapped in an ApplicationScoped bean and used in a Quarkus application, consider documenting that this method should only be called from worker threads, not from Vert.x event loop threads. Alternatively, consider using Uni.await().indefinitely() from Quarkus with proper context propagation, or ensure callers use this on appropriate thread pools.

The send() method uses CompletableFuture.get() which will block indefinitely if the request never completes, potentially causing thread starvation. While the request itself has a timeout set via setTimeout(), if that timeout isn't set, this could hang forever.

Consider adding a fallback timeout to the get() call:

return future.get(defaultTimeout, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

or ensuring that a timeout is always set on the request.

The timeout conversion from milliseconds to seconds using integer division can result in a timeout of 0 seconds (no timeout) for values less than 1000ms. For example, if idleTimeout is 500ms, idleTimeoutSeconds will be 0, which in Vert.x means "no timeout" rather than 500ms.

Consider using TimeUnit conversions or rounding up:

int idleTimeoutSeconds = (int) Math.ceil(idleTimeout / 1000.0);

to ensure timeouts under 1 second are still applied as 1 second rather than being disabled.

The setMaxResponseSize method no longer enforces the maximum response size during download. While the check is performed after the entire response is buffered (lines 192-201), this defeats the purpose of the limit, which was to prevent memory exhaustion from large responses.

Vert.x will buffer the entire response in memory before the size check occurs, potentially causing OutOfMemoryError for very large responses. Consider using sendStream() with a custom handler that counts bytes and fails early if the limit is exceeded, similar to the original Jetty implementation with BufferingResponseListener.

The timeout is converted from the provided TimeUnit to milliseconds, but request.timeout() expects the timeout in milliseconds. If the provided timeout value is very large and the TimeUnit is something like DAYS or HOURS, the conversion timeUnit.toMillis(timeout) could overflow, resulting in incorrect timeout values or even negative values.

Consider adding validation:

long timeoutMillis = timeUnit.toMillis(timeout);
if (timeoutMillis > Integer.MAX_VALUE || timeoutMillis < 0) {
    throw new IllegalArgumentException("Timeout value out of acceptable range");
}
request.timeout(timeoutMillis);

The query parameter parsing logic can produce incorrect results when a parameter value contains & or = characters. The code splits on & and = without URL decoding, which means encoded special characters won't be handled correctly.

For example, a query string like key=value%3D1%26extra (where value=1&extra is URL-encoded) would be incorrectly split. Consider using proper URL decoding or a URL parsing library.

The asynchronous send(ICompleteListener) method signature in the IRequest interface declares throws HttpRequestException, but the new implementation never throws this exception. Instead, errors are logged but not propagated to the caller through the exception mechanism.

This is a behavior change from the previous implementation and could mask errors for code that relies on exception handling.

The previous Jetty implementation registered a shutdown hook to properly stop the HttpClient on application shutdown. The new implementation doesn't include any cleanup code for the WebClient or WebClientSession.

While Vert.x resources are typically managed by the Vert.x instance itself, it's good practice to explicitly close the WebClient and WebClientSession when the application shuts down to prevent potential resource leaks. Consider adding a @PreDestroy method or observing Quarkus shutdown events to call webClientSession.close() and webClient.close().

[nitpick] The code calls response.bodyAsString() on line 205 after already checking the body buffer. However, when body is not null but empty (length 0), this will still call bodyAsString(). While this may not be a critical issue, it's more efficient to use body.toString() directly or check if the body is empty before calling bodyAsString().

Additionally, consider that bodyAsString() uses the charset from the Content-Type header by default, which may be the desired behavior but differs from how the body buffer encoding was checked on line 192.

responseWrapper.setContentAsString(response.bodyAsString());

The HttpRequest object from Vert.x is mutable and the same request instance is reused in both doSend() calls (for synchronous and asynchronous send). If a user calls send() multiple times on the same RequestWrapper instance, the second call would fail because Vert.x HttpRequest instances are not reusable after being sent.

Consider documenting this limitation or creating a new request for each send operation if the interface contract allows request reuse.

270-272: Aligning vertx-web-client with the Quarkus BOM looks good

The explicit version has been removed, so vertx-web-client will now follow the Quarkus platform BOM’s Vert.x version, avoiding the previous risk of mixed Vert.x majors.

If you want extra safety, run mvn dependency:tree or inspect the effective POM to confirm io.vertx:vertx-web-client resolves to the BOM-managed 4.x line rather than 5.x.

src/main/java/ai/labs/eddi/engine/httpclient/bootstrap/HttpClientModule.java (1)

21-29: Clarify or retire unused HTTP client configuration parameters

provideHttpClient(...) still accepts several Jetty-era config parameters that are no longer applied:

  • maxConnectionsQueued
  • requestBufferSize
  • responseBufferSize
  • disableWWWAuthenticationValidation

Only maxConnectionPerRoute, maxRedirects, idleTimeoutInMillis, and connectTimeoutInMillis are currently mapped into WebClientOptions.

Leaving these unused parameters in the producer signature can mislead users into thinking they still affect behavior. Either:

  • remove them from the method (and update config/docs accordingly), or
  • explicitly document them as no-ops/deprecated so it’s clear they’re ignored in the Vert.x-based implementation.

Also applies to: 31-47

src/main/java/ai/labs/eddi/engine/httpclient/impl/HttpClientWrapper.java (4)

148-151: Preserve the interrupt flag in synchronous send()

In send() the InterruptedException is caught and wrapped in HttpRequestException without restoring the thread’s interrupt status, which can break cooperative cancellation in calling code.

You can restore the flag with a small change:

-        try {
-            return future.get();
-        } catch (InterruptedException | ExecutionException e) {
-            throw new HttpRequestException(e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
-        }
+        try {
+            return future.get();
+        } catch (InterruptedException | ExecutionException e) {
+            if (e instanceof InterruptedException) {
+                Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
+            }
+            throw new HttpRequestException(e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
+        }

78-101: setBasicAuthentication ignores realm and preemptive flags

The setBasicAuthentication implementation:

request.basicAuthentication(username, password);

drops the realm and preemptive parameters, which is a behavioral change from the Jetty version that could honor those flags. If callers depend on non-preemptive auth or realm-specific behavior, this may break interoperability.

At minimum, document this limitation in the interface or method Javadoc; if realm-based or non‑preemptive auth is required, you may need to construct the Authorization header manually according to the server’s expectations.


133-145: Max response size is enforced post‑hoc and can still exhaust memory

The setMaxResponseSize comment says Vert.x “just buffers” and suggests the limit is mostly advisory, yet doSend now fails the handler when body.length() > maxLength. Two issues:

  1. Comment vs behavior mismatch – the comment implies “warning / buffer handles it,” but the code actually treats exceeding maxLength as a hard failure (failedFuture(new IResponse.HttpResponseException(...))). The comment should be updated to match this behavior.

  2. Memory protection regression vs Jetty – Vert.x WebClient will still buffer the entire response body into memory before body.length() is checked. For very large responses this can still lead to excessive memory usage or OOM, whereas Jetty’s BufferingResponseListener(maxLength) stopped buffering once the limit was hit.

Short term, I recommend:

  • Aligning the comment with the actual post‑hoc failure behavior.
  • Explicitly documenting that this is a logical size guard, not a streaming cap.

Longer term, if you need real memory protection, consider a streaming approach (e.g. Vert.x core HttpClient with manual byte counting, or a BodyCodec.pipe option) to stop reading once maxLength is exceeded.

Also applies to: 172-201


153-170: Async send(ICompleteListener) never signals failures; fix callback behavior

Currently:

  • send() (sync) correctly surfaces failures via HttpRequestException (through future.completeExceptionally).
  • send(ICompleteListener) logs errors in the else branch of doSend but never invokes completeListener when the request fails (network error, timeout, maxLength violation). Async callers can hang indefinitely waiting for a callback that never comes.

You should ensure the listener is always invoked, even on failure. One pragmatic approach is to construct a synthetic error response:

        public void send(final ICompleteListener completeListener) {
-            doSend(ar -> {
-                if (ar.succeeded()) {
-                    try {
-                        completeListener.onComplete(ar.result());
-                    } catch (IResponse.HttpResponseException e) {
-                        log.error(e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
-                    }
-                } else {
-                     log.error(ar.cause().getLocalizedMessage(), ar.cause());
-                }
-            });
+            doSend(ar -> {
+                IResponse response;
+                if (ar.succeeded()) {
+                    response = ar.result();
+                } else {
+                    log.error(ar.cause().getLocalizedMessage(), ar.cause());
+                    ResponseWrapper errorResponse = new ResponseWrapper();
+                    errorResponse.setHttpCode(0);
+                    errorResponse.setHttpCodeMessage(ar.cause().getMessage());
+                    errorResponse.setContentAsString("");
+                    errorResponse.setHttpHeader(Collections.emptyMap());
+                    response = errorResponse;
+                }
+
+                try {
+                    completeListener.onComplete(response);
+                } catch (IResponse.HttpResponseException e) {
+                    log.error(e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
+                }
+            });

If the API contract prefers explicit error signaling, an alternative is to extend ICompleteListener with an error callback, but the key point is: async callers must not be left without any completion signal on failure.

src/main/java/ai/labs/eddi/engine/httpclient/impl/VertxHttpClient.java (1)

3-18: Consider making VertxHttpClient immutable (no setters, final fields)

VertxHttpClient is effectively a simple holder for infrastructure objects and is produced via the all-args constructor; the no-args ctor and setters are not required and allow mutation of the Vertx/WebClientSession references at runtime. Making the fields final and dropping @Setter (and potentially @NoArgsConstructor) would simplify the type and reduce accidental reconfiguration.

src/main/java/ai/labs/eddi/engine/httpclient/impl/HttpClientWrapper.java (1)

39-49: Name webClient field consistently with its type

webClient is a WebClientSession, not a plain WebClient. For readability it might be clearer to rename the field (and ctor param) to webClientSession to match the type and distinguish it from raw WebClient usage elsewhere.

220-275: Request/response logging helpers and header conversion look consistent

The updated toMap(), toString() methods and convertHeaderToMap(MultiMap) correctly reflect the Vert.x-based fields:

  • Method, query params and user-agent are included in toMap() and RequestWrapper.toString().
  • truncateAndClean is reused for both request and response bodies to keep logs compact.
  • Header conversion from MultiMap to Map<String, String> is straightforward and adequate for single-valued header usage.

No issues here from a behavior or maintainability standpoint.

The idleTimeout conversion logic may lose precision for timeout values between 1 and 999 milliseconds. For example, an idleTimeout of 500ms would be converted to 0 seconds, then adjusted to 1 second (doubling the intended timeout). Consider documenting this behavior or using a more precise conversion that preserves the millisecond granularity if Vert.x supports it, or at least warning users about this limitation in configuration documentation.

The maximum response size validation has a potential issue: it checks Content-Length header and actual body length, but if the header is missing or incorrect, a large response could still be buffered entirely in memory before the check on line 206 is performed. For true protection against large payloads, consider using Vert.x's streaming API with byte counting to abort downloads that exceed the limit, rather than buffering the entire response first.

Behavior change in error handling: When the HTTP request fails (e.g., network error, timeout), the code creates a synthetic HTTP 500 response (lines 276-280) instead of propagating the error. This may mask the actual error type and make it harder for callers to distinguish between server errors (actual 500 responses) and client-side failures (network issues). Consider documenting this behavior or using a different status code (e.g., 503 for network issues) to differentiate error sources.

The configuration property httpClient.maxConnectionsQueued is no longer used after migrating to Vert.x but still exists in application.properties (line 13). Similarly, httpClient.requestBufferSize, httpClient.responseBufferSize, and httpClient.disableWWWAuthenticationValidation are no longer consumed. Consider documenting which configuration properties are deprecated or removing them from the configuration file to avoid confusion.

The realm and preemptive parameters are ignored in the Vert.x implementation of basic authentication. While there's a comment explaining this, the implementation always sends credentials preemptively. This is a behavior change from the Jetty implementation which could handle non-preemptive authentication (waiting for 401 challenge). This breaking change should be documented, or non-preemptive authentication should be implemented using a different approach if needed.

Potential redundancy: response.body() is called on line 205 and stored in body, then response.bodyAsString() is called on line 215. Since body is already available as a Buffer, consider using body.toString() instead of response.bodyAsString() to avoid potentially re-reading the body. This may also ensure consistency between the size check and the actual string conversion.

Suggested change
responseWrapper.setContentAsString(response.bodyAsString());
responseWrapper.setContentAsString(body.toString());

Missing timeout on blocking call: The synchronous send() method uses future.get() without a timeout parameter (line 167). If the Vert.x request timeout fails to trigger for any reason, this could block indefinitely. Consider using future.get(timeout, timeUnit) with a reasonable timeout value, possibly based on the timeout set via setTimeout(), to prevent indefinite blocking.

Missing resource cleanup: The old Jetty implementation had a shutdown hook to properly stop the HttpClient (removed code at lines 55-72 in the original). The new Vert.x implementation doesn't have any cleanup for the WebClient or WebClientSession. Consider adding a @PreDestroy method to close the WebClient and WebClientSession when the bean is destroyed to prevent resource leaks.

The requestEncoding is treated as a charset name string in Buffer.buffer(requestBody, requestEncoding), but if the encoding is invalid or unsupported, this could throw an uncaught exception. The Jetty implementation used Charset.forName(encoding) which would also throw but was more explicit. Consider wrapping this in a try-catch to provide a better error message, or validating the encoding when it's set in setBodyEntity().

Suggested change
Buffer buffer = requestEncoding != null ? Buffer.buffer(requestBody, requestEncoding) : Buffer.buffer(requestBody);
Buffer buffer;

buffer = requestEncoding != null ? Buffer.buffer(requestBody, requestEncoding) : Buffer.buffer(requestBody);

When wrapping exceptions from ExecutionException, the code loses the root cause information by calling e.getLocalizedMessage(). This can make debugging difficult since ExecutionException is just a wrapper. Consider using e.getCause() to get the underlying exception, e.g., Throwable cause = e instanceof ExecutionException ? e.getCause() : e; throw new HttpRequestException(cause.getLocalizedMessage(), cause); This would preserve the actual exception that occurred during the async operation.

Suggested change
throw new HttpRequestException(e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
Throwable cause = (e instanceof ExecutionException && e.getCause() != null) ? e.getCause() : e;
throw new HttpRequestException(cause.getLocalizedMessage(), cause);

The dispose method only closes the WebClientSession but doesn't close the underlying WebClient that was created on line 43. According to Vert.x documentation, both the session and the base WebClient should be closed to properly release resources. Consider also closing the base WebClient or storing a reference to it in VertxHttpClient for proper cleanup.

The query parameters from the URI are parsed manually on lines 85-94 but they're not URL-decoded. If the URI contains encoded query parameters (e.g., key=hello%20world), they will remain encoded in the queryParamsMap. Consider using URLDecoder.decode() to properly decode both keys and values when parsing the query string.

The idle timeout conversion from milliseconds to seconds has potential issues. When idleTimeout is between 1 and 999 milliseconds, the result will be 0, which is then changed to 1 second on line 35. However, when idleTimeout is exactly 0, it bypasses the check and sets the timeout to 0 seconds. This inconsistency could cause unexpected behavior. Consider handling the conversion more consistently: if the input is > 0 but < 1000, round up to 1 second; if it's 0, keep it as 0 (which typically means no timeout).

Suggested change
int idleTimeoutSeconds = idleTimeout / 1000;
if (idleTimeout > 0 && idleTimeoutSeconds == 0) {
idleTimeoutSeconds = 1;
int idleTimeoutSeconds;
if (idleTimeout == 0) {
idleTimeoutSeconds = 0; // No timeout
} else if (idleTimeout > 0 && idleTimeout < 1000) {
idleTimeoutSeconds = 1; // Round up to 1 second
} else {
idleTimeoutSeconds = (int) Math.ceil(idleTimeout / 1000.0); // Round up to nearest second

The comments on lines 139-146 are excessively verbose and contain internal deliberation ("For now, we will assume...", "Actually, as(BodyCodec.string()) or similar doesn't limit"). These should be condensed to a concise explanation of what the implementation does and any known limitations, e.g., "Note: Vert.x WebClient buffers the entire response by default. Size limits are validated in handleResponse() after the response is received."

The comment states that 'realm' and 'preemptive' parameters are ignored, but this is a change in behavior from the previous Jetty implementation which supported non-preemptive authentication. This could be a breaking change for users who relied on non-preemptive basic authentication (preemptive=false). Consider documenting this breaking change more prominently or implementing a workaround if non-preemptive auth is required.

The HttpRequest<Buffer> object is mutable and shared across multiple method calls that modify it (e.g., putHeader, addQueryParam, timeout). If the same RequestWrapper instance is reused and send() or send(ICompleteListener) is called multiple times, the request will accumulate headers and query parameters from previous calls, leading to incorrect behavior. Consider either: 1) documenting that RequestWrapper should not be reused after sending, or 2) cloning/recreating the request for each send operation to ensure idempotency.
