httplib
A simple and efficient HTTP library for ActionScript 3.0 which should lead to some more advanced and interesting code.
Here the focus is on the parsing of raw HTTP into structured objects and the opposite, from Object to well-formed HTTP.
This is the result of an earlier prototype which has been tested under Apache + CGI to serve the web site burrrn.com.
For the time being this library will encompass everything under
the net
package: net.http
, net.http.cgi
, etc.
When mature enough we will split the components in their respective libraries.
What to Expect ?
- serve/answer HTTP requests/responses under CGI
- small http client like curl, httpie
- basic http server that can proxy to Apache
(like you would do with node.js)
Quick Test
Create a symlink of redbean at the root of the project
$ ln -s /sdk/redtamarin/bin/redbean redbean
Build the library
./redbean
Run the test with as3shebang
./test_httplib
