hyper

A Modern HTTP library for Rust.

Documentation

Overview

Hyper is a fast, modern HTTP implementation written in and for Rust. It is a low-level typesafe abstraction over raw HTTP, providing an elegant layer over "stringly-typed" HTTP.

Hyper offers both an HTTP/S client and HTTP server which can be used to drive complex web applications written entirely in Rust.

The documentation is located at http://hyperium.github.io/hyper.

Example

Hello World Server:

```rust extern crate hyper;

use std::io::Write;

use hyper::Server; use hyper::server::Request; use hyper::server::Response; use hyper::net::Fresh;

fn hello(: Request, res: Response) { let mut res = res.start().unwrap(); res.writeall(b"Hello World!").unwrap(); res.end().unwrap(); }

fn main() { Server::http("127.0.0.1:3000").unwrap().handle(hello); } ```

Client:

```rust extern crate hyper;

use std::io::Read;

use hyper::Client; use hyper::header::Connection;

fn main() { // Create a client. let mut client = Client::new();

// Creating an outgoing request.
let mut res = client.get("http://www.gooogle.com/")
    // set a header
    .header(Connection::close())
    // let 'er go!
    .send().unwrap();

// Read the Response.
let mut body = String::new();
res.read_to_string(&mut body).unwrap();

println!("Response: {}", body);

} ```
