It lets you set up - HTTP connections, transmitting requests and processing the responses coming back, all - from within the comforts of Haskell. It's dependent on the network package to operate, - but other than that, the implementation is all written in Haskell. - - A basic API for issuing single HTTP requests + receiving responses is provided. On top - of that, a session-level abstraction is also on offer (the @BrowserAction@ monad); - it taking care of handling the management of persistent connections, proxies, - state (cookies) and authentication credentials required to handle multi-step - interactions with a web server. - - The representation of the bytes flowing across is extensible via the use of a type class, - letting you pick the representation of requests and responses that best fits your use. - Some pre-packaged, common instances are provided for you (@ByteString@, @String@.) - - Here's an example use: - - > - > do - > rsp <- Network.HTTP.simpleHTTP (getRequest "http://www.haskell.org/") - > -- fetch document and return it (as a 'String'.) - > fmap (take 100) (getResponseBody rsp) - > - > do - > rsp <- Network.Browser.browse $ do - > setAllowRedirects True -- handle HTTP redirects - > request $ getRequest "https://google.com/" - > fmap (take 100) (getResponseBody rsp) - > - - Git repository available at <https://github.com/haskell/HTTP.git> - </longdescription> <upstream> + <remote-id type="hackage">HTTP</remote-id> <remote-id type="github">haskell/HTTP</remote-id> </upstream> </pkgmetadata> |
