Xamarin Forms PCL - 干净、简单的网络请求方法？

我正在使用便携式类库构建 Android/iOS xamarin 表单应用程序。我正在寻找在 PCL 项目中执行此示例的最佳方法：

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Text;

namespace Examples.System.Net
{
    public class WebRequestGetExample
    {
        public static void Main ()
        {
            // Create a request for the URL. 
            WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create (
              "http://www.contoso.com/default.html");
            // If required by the server, set the credentials.
            request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
            // Get the response.
            WebResponse response = request.GetResponse ();
            // Display the status.
           Console.WriteLine(((HttpWebResponse)response).StatusDescription);
            // Get the stream containing content returned by the server.
            Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream ();
            // Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
            StreamReader reader = new StreamReader (dataStream);
            // Read the content.
            string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd ();
            //do something with the response string

            // Clean up the streams and the response.
            reader.Close ();
            response.Close ();
        }
    }
}

Flul.Http http://tmenier.github.io/Flurl/fluent-http（免责声明：我是作者）是一个与 Xamarin 兼容的 PCL，它使此类事情变得非常简单：

string s = await "http://www.contoso.com/default.html".GetStringAsync();

穿上它NuGet https://www.nuget.org/packages/Flurl.Http.
