<p>This crate is a general purpose library for common types found when working
with the HTTP protocol. Youll find <code>Request</code> and <code>Response</code> types for
working as either a client or a server as well as all of their components.
Notably youll find <code>Uri</code> for what a <code>Request</code> is requesting, a <code>Method</code>
for how its being requested, a <code>StatusCode</code> for what sort of response came
back, a <code>Version</code> for how this was communicated, and
<code>HeaderName</code>/<code>HeaderValue</code> definitions to get grouped in a <code>HeaderMap</code> to
work with request/response headers.</p>
<p>You will notably <em>not</em> find an implementation of sending requests or
spinning up a server in this crate. Its intended that this crate is the
“standard library” for HTTP clients and servers without dictating any
particular implementation. Note that this crate is still early on in its
lifecycle so the support libraries that integrate with the <code>http</code> crate are
a work in progress! Stay tuned and well be sure to highlight crates here
in the future.</p>
<h3 id="requests-and-responses"><a href="#requests-and-responses">Requests and Responses</a></h3>
<p>Perhaps the main two types in this crate are the <code>Request</code> and <code>Response</code>
types. A <code>Request</code> could either be constructed to get sent off as a client
or it can also be received to generate a <code>Response</code> for a server. Similarly
as a client a <code>Response</code> is what you get after sending a <code>Request</code>, whereas
on a server youll be manufacturing a <code>Response</code> to send back to the client.</p>
<p>Each type has a number of accessors for the component fields. For as a
server you might want to inspect a requests URI to dispatch it:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">use </span>http::{Request, Response};
<span class="kw">fn </span>response(req: Request&lt;()&gt;) -&gt; http::Result&lt;Response&lt;()&gt;&gt; {
<span class="kw">match </span>req.uri().path() {
<span class="string">"/" </span>=&gt; index(req),
<span class="string">"/foo" </span>=&gt; foo(req),
<span class="string">"/bar" </span>=&gt; bar(req),
<span class="kw">_ </span>=&gt; not_found(req),
}
}</code></pre></div>
<p>On a <code>Request</code> youll also find accessors like <code>method</code> to return a
<code>Method</code> and <code>headers</code> to inspect the various headers. A <code>Response</code>
has similar methods for headers, the status code, etc.</p>
<p>In addition to getters, request/response types also have mutable accessors
to edit the request/response:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">use </span>http::{HeaderValue, Response, StatusCode};
<span class="kw">use </span>http::header::CONTENT_TYPE;
<span class="kw">fn </span>add_server_headers&lt;T&gt;(response: <span class="kw-2">&amp;mut </span>Response&lt;T&gt;) {
response.headers_mut()
.insert(CONTENT_TYPE, HeaderValue::from_static(<span class="string">"text/html"</span>));
<span class="kw-2">*</span>response.status_mut() = StatusCode::OK;
}</code></pre></div>
<p>And finally, one of the most important aspects of requests/responses, the
body! The <code>Request</code> and <code>Response</code> types in this crate are <em>generic</em> in
what their body is. This allows downstream libraries to use different
representations such as <code>Request&lt;Vec&lt;u8&gt;&gt;</code>, <code>Response&lt;impl Read&gt;</code>,
<code>Request&lt;impl Stream&lt;Item = Vec&lt;u8&gt;, Error = _&gt;&gt;</code>, or even
<code>Response&lt;MyCustomType&gt;</code> where the custom type was deserialized from JSON.</p>
<p>The body representation is intentionally flexible to give downstream
libraries maximal flexibility in implementing the body as appropriate.</p>
<h3 id="http-headers"><a href="#http-headers">HTTP Headers</a></h3>
<p>Another major piece of functionality in this library is HTTP header
interpretation and generation. The <code>HeaderName</code> type serves as a way to
define header <em>names</em>, or whats to the left of the colon. A <code>HeaderValue</code>
conversely is the header <em>value</em>, or whats to the right of a colon.</p>
<p>For example, if you have an HTTP request that looks like:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="language-http"><code>GET /foo HTTP/1.1
Accept: text/html
</code></pre></div>
<p>Then <code>&quot;Accept&quot;</code> is a <code>HeaderName</code> while <code>&quot;text/html&quot;</code> is a <code>HeaderValue</code>.
Each of these is a dedicated type to allow for a number of interesting
optimizations and to also encode the static guarantees of each type. For
example a <code>HeaderName</code> is always a valid <code>&amp;str</code>, but a <code>HeaderValue</code> may
not be valid UTF-8.</p>
<p>The most common header names are already defined for you as constant values
in the <code>header</code> module of this crate. For example:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">use </span>http::header::{<span class="self">self</span>, HeaderName};
<span class="kw">let </span>name: HeaderName = header::ACCEPT;
<span class="macro">assert_eq!</span>(name.as_str(), <span class="string">"accept"</span>);</code></pre></div>
<p>You can, however, also parse header names from strings:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">use </span>http::header::{<span class="self">self</span>, HeaderName};
<span class="kw">let </span>name = <span class="string">"Accept"</span>.parse::&lt;HeaderName&gt;().unwrap();
<span class="macro">assert_eq!</span>(name, header::ACCEPT);</code></pre></div>
<p>Header values can be created from string literals through the <code>from_static</code>
function:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">use </span>http::HeaderValue;
<span class="kw">let </span>value = HeaderValue::from_static(<span class="string">"text/html"</span>);
<span class="macro">assert_eq!</span>(value.as_bytes(), <span class="string">b"text/html"</span>);</code></pre></div>
<p>And header values can also be parsed like names:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">use </span>http::HeaderValue;
<span class="kw">let </span>value = <span class="string">"text/html"</span>;
<span class="kw">let </span>value = value.parse::&lt;HeaderValue&gt;().unwrap();</code></pre></div>
<p>Most HTTP requests and responses tend to come with more than one header, so
its not too useful to just work with names and values only! This crate also
provides a <code>HeaderMap</code> type which is a specialized hash map for keys as
<code>HeaderName</code> and generic values. This type, like header names, is optimized
for common usage but should continue to scale with your needs over time.</p>
<h2 id="uris"><a href="#uris">URIs</a></h2>
<p>Each HTTP <code>Request</code> has an associated URI with it. This may just be a path
like <code>/index.html</code> but it could also be an absolute URL such as
<code>https://www.rust-lang.org/index.html</code>. A <code>URI</code> has a number of accessors to
interpret it:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">use </span>http::Uri;
<span class="kw">use </span>http::uri::Scheme;
<span class="kw">let </span>uri = <span class="string">"https://www.rust-lang.org/index.html"</span>.parse::&lt;Uri&gt;().unwrap();
<span class="macro">assert_eq!</span>(uri.scheme(), <span class="prelude-val">Some</span>(<span class="kw-2">&amp;</span>Scheme::HTTPS));
<span class="macro">assert_eq!</span>(uri.host(), <span class="prelude-val">Some</span>(<span class="string">"www.rust-lang.org"</span>));
<span class="macro">assert_eq!</span>(uri.path(), <span class="string">"/index.html"</span>);
<span class="macro">assert_eq!</span>(uri.query(), <span class="prelude-val">None</span>);</code></pre></div>
