Ochenta: HTTP library
=====================

- HTTP abstractions: use request/response objects instead of superglobals.
- HTTP middlewares: intersect the process of creating a response from a request.
- HTTP responders: actionable views that build responses.

Hello World
-----------

```php
use ochenta\ServerRequest;
use function ochenta\{emit, responder_of};

emit(new ServerRequest, responder_of('Hello World'));
```

Usage
-----

```php
$req = new ServerRequest;
```

It could also be created with it's defaults values:

```php
$req = new ServerRequest($_SERVER, $_GET, $_POST, $_FILES, $_COOKIE, fopen('php://input', 'rb'));
```

That's a incoming request.
Superglobals are available as `$req->getQuery()`, `$req->getParsedBody()` and `$req->getFiles()`.

Then the low-level `Request` abstraction provides many more methods:

- `$req->getMethod()` and `$req->getTarget()` from the request line.
- `$req->getHeaders()` to get all headers and `$req->getHost()` for the normalized domain.
- `$req->getMediaType()` and `$req->getCharset()` from the `Content-Type` header.
- `$req->getAccept*()` returns the parsed Accept* headers.

There is also `Response` object, but the response will be given by a responder.

Responders
----------

When working in SAPI environment, you could define a response with a responder:

```php
function hola(ServerRequest $req, callable $open) {
$name = $req->getQuery()['name'] ?? 'World';
$open(200, ['Content-Language' => ['en', 'es']]);
yield "Hola $name";
}
```

Or using `ochenta\Response` wrapper:

```php
function hola(ServerRequest $req, callable $open) {
$name = $req->getQuery()['name'] ?? 'World';
$res = new Response(200, ['Content-Language' => ['en', 'es']], "Hola $name");
return responder_of($response)($req, $open);
}
```

Using a `ochenta\emit` function, the responder could be emitted:

```php
emit(new ServerRequest, @hola);
```

Middlewares
-----------

Use them to wrap your `request -> responder` process. This is what it look like:

```php
function timeit(callable $handler): callable {
return function(ServerRequest $req, callable $open) use($handler) {
$time = -microtime(TRUE);
$res = yield from $handler($req, $open);
$time += microtime(TRUE);
yield sprintf("

%.7F secs
", $time);
return $res;
};
}
```

Decorating your app responder:

```php
$app = @hola;
$app = timeit($app);

emit(new ServerRequest, $app);
```

When options are needed, could be wrapped in yet another function.

```php
function add_header(string $name, string $value): callable {
return function(callable $handler) use($name, $value): callable {
return function(ServerRequest $req, callable $open) use($name, $value, $handler) {
return $handler($req, function(int $status, array $headers) use($name, $value, $open) {
$headers[$name] = [$value];
$open($status, $headers);
});
};
};
}
```

Complex? This middleware exists at `ochenta\header`. This is how to use it:

```php
$app = add_header('X-Frame-Options', 'SAMEORIGIN')($app);
```

What a hassle! Better use `ochenta\stack` to do stacks of middlewares:

```php
$app = stack(@hola, [
add_header('X-Xss-Protection', '1; mode=block'),
add_header('X-Frame-Options', 'SAMEORIGIN'),
@timeit,
]);
```

You got this far. Look at [example.php](example.php) to see the complete code.

API
---

```php
responder_of(Response $resource) // creates a responder from a Response
responder_of(resource $resource) // ... from a resource
responder_of(scalar $resource) // ... from content

emit(ServerRequest $req, callable $handler) // emits a responder

stack(callable $responder, array $stack) // expects stack items to be a function(callable $next)
stack(callable $responder, callable $resolver, array $stack) // ... use resolver as function(callable $prev, $handler)

// MIDDLEWARES

header(string $name, array $values) // adds a header to responder
header(string $name, string $value) // ... with single value

cookie(Cookie $cookie) // sets cookie into responder

append(string $content) // adds content before body
append(string $content, string $tag) // ... before every given tag

// RESPONDERS

redirect(string $uri) // redirect to the given url
redirect(string $uri, int $statusCode) // ... with given status code

// CONTENT NEGOTATION

accept\mediatypes(Request $req, array $available) // negotiate media types
accept\charsets(Request $req, array $available) // ... charsets
accept\encodings(Request $req, array $available) // ... encodings
accept\languages(Request $req, array $available) // ... languages

// HELPERS

stream_of(scalar $resource) // creates tmp file with $resouce content
```
