# HTTP
HTTP core types for Zig inspired by Rust [http](https://github.com/hyperium/http).
[](https://travis-ci.org/ducdetronquito/http) [](https://github.com/ducdetronquito/http#license) [](https://ziglang.org/)
⚠️ I'm currently renovating an old house which does not allow me to work on [requestz](https://github.com/ducdetronquito/requestz/), [h11](https://github.com/ducdetronquito/h11/) and [http](https://github.com/ducdetronquito/http) anymore. Feel free to fork or borrow some ideas if there are any good ones :)
## Installation
*http* is available on [astrolabe.pm](https://astrolabe.pm/) via [gyro](https://github.com/mattnite/gyro)
```
gyro add ducdetronquito/http
```
## Usage
Create an HTTP request
```zig
const Request = @import("http").Request;
const std = @import("std");
var request = try Request.builder(std.testing.allocator)
.get("https://ziglang.org/")
.header("GOTTA-GO", "FAST")
.body("");
defer request.deinit();
```
Create an HTTP response
```zig
const Response = @import("http").Request;
const StatusCode = @import("http").StatusCode;
const std = @import("std");
var response = try Response.builder(std.testing.allocator)
.status(.Ok)
.header("GOTTA-GO", "FAST")
.body("");
defer response.deinit();
```
## API Reference
### Structures
#### `Headers`
##### An HTTP header list
```zig
// The default constructor
fn init(allocator: *Allocator) Headers
```
```zig
// Add a header name and value
fn append(self: *Headers, name: []const u8, value: []const u8) !void
```
```zig
// Retrieve the first matching header
fn get(self: Headers, name: []const u8) ?Header
```
```zig
// Retrieve a list of matching headers
fn list(self: Headers, name: []const u8) ![]Header
```
```zig
// Retrieve the number of headers
fn len(self: Headers) usize
```
```zig
// Retrieve all headers
fn items(self: Headers) []Header
```
Header issues are tracked here: [#2](https://github.com/ducdetronquito/http/issues/2)
#### `Request`
##### An HTTP request object produced by the request builder.
```zig
const Request = struct {
method: Method,
uri: Uri,
version: Version,
headers: Headers,
body: []const u8,
};
```
```zig
// The default constructor to start building a request
fn builder(allocator: *Allocator) RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Release the memory allocated by the headers
fn deinit(self: *Request) void
```
#### `RequestBuilder`
##### The request builder.
```zig
// The default constructor
default(allocator: *Allocator) RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Set the request's payload.
// This function returns the final request objet or a potential error
// collected during the build steps
fn body(self: *RequestBuilder, value: []const u8) RequestError!Request
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define a CONNECT request to the provided URI
fn connect(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define a DELETE request to the provided URI
fn delete(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define a GET request to the provided URI
fn get(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define an HEAD request to the provided URI
fn head(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Set a request header name and value
fn header(self: *RequestBuilder, name: []const u8, value: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Set the request's method
fn method(self: *RequestBuilder, value: Method) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define an OPTIONS request to the provided URI
fn options(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define a PATCH request to the provided URI
fn patch(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define a POST request to the provided URI
fn post(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define a PUT request to the provided URI
fn put(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Shortcut to define a TRACE request to the provided URI
fn trace(self: *RequestBuilder, _uri: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Set the request's URI
fn uri(self: *RequestBuilder, value: []const u8) *RequestBuilder
```
```zig
// Set the request's protocol version
fn version(self: *RequestBuilder, value: Version) *RequestBuilder
```
#### `Response`
##### An HTTP response object produced by the response builder.
```zig
const Response = struct {
status: StatusCode,
version: Version,
headers: Headers,
body: []const u8,
};
```
```zig
// The default constructor to start building a response
fn builder(allocator: *Allocator) ResponseBuilder
```
#### `ResponseBuilder`
##### The response builder.
```zig
// The default constructor
default(allocator: *Allocator) ResponseBuilder
```
```zig
// Set the response's payload.
// This function returns the final response objet or a potential error
// collected during the build steps
fn body(self: *ResponseBuilder, value: []const u8) ResponseError!Response
```
```zig
// Set a response header name and value
fn header(self: *ResponseBuilder, name: []const u8, value: []const u8) *ResponseBuilder
```
```zig
// Set the response's status code
fn status(self: *ResponseBuilder, value: StatusCode) *ResponseBuilder
```
```zig
// Set the response's protocol version
fn version(self: *ResponseBuilder, value: Version) *ResponseBuilder
```
#### `Uri`
##### A valid URI object
