Answer 1

HttpClient is deprecated. So new way to do: First, add the two dependencies in build.gradle:

compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.4.1'
compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5'

Then write this code in ASyncTask in doBackground method.

 URL url = new URL("http://localhost:8080/web/get?key=value");
 HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
 urlConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
 int statusCode = urlConnection.getResponseCode();
 if (statusCode ==  200) {
      InputStream it = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream());
      InputStreamReader read = new InputStreamReader(it);
      BufferedReader buff = new BufferedReader(read);
      StringBuilder dta = new StringBuilder();
      String chunks ;
      while((chunks = buff.readLine()) != null)
      {
         dta.append(chunks);
      }
 }
 else
 {
     //Handle else
 }

Note: Don't forget to handle the Exceptions in code .
