README

        
# httpx

This project is based on Dom96's perfect work on [httpbeast](https://github.com/dom96/httpbeast) and adds windows support(based on `wepoll` namely IOCP).

It is also used by [prologue](https://github.com/planety/prologue).

## Installation

```

nimble install httpx

```

## Notes

Notes that multi-threads may be slower than single-thread!

## Usage

### Change server info name

```

-d:serverInfo:serverName

```

### Enable threads

```

--threads:on

```

## Hello world

```nim

import options, asyncdispatch

import httpx

proc onRequest(req: Request): Future[void] =

  if req.httpMethod == some(HttpGet):

    case req.path.get()

    of "/":

      req.send("Hello World")

    else:

      req.send(Http404)

run(onRequest)
