kl-http

A lightweight converter for taking a TcpStream and converting into a http::Request or http::Response.

While crates such as tokio or hyper offer great functionality and features, there is extra work in handling Futures and parsing into a workable HTTP request or response. This crate is focused on a simple, easy-to-use conversion of a TcpStream into a HTTP request. It uses http crate to construct the http::Request and http::Response. It uses a standard Vec<u8> as the body of the requests/response.


Example

```rust extern crate http; extern crate kl_http;

use kl_http::{HttpRequest, HttpSerialise}; use std::io::BufReader;

fn main() { use std::io::Write;

let incoming_request = b"GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nuser-agent: Dart/2.0 (dart:io)\r\ncontent-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8\r\naccept-encoding: gzip\r\ncontent-length: 11\r\nhost: 10.0.2.2:8080\r\n\r\nHello world";

let listening_thread = ::std::thread::spawn(move || {
    let listener = ::std::net::TcpListener::bind("127.0.0.1:8080").unwrap();

    for stream in listener.incoming() {
        let mut http_request = HttpRequest::from_tcp_stream(stream.unwrap()).unwrap();

        println!(
            "{}",
            String::from_utf8_lossy(&http_request.request.to_http())
        );

        let mut response = http::Response::builder();
        response.status(http::StatusCode::OK);
        let response = response.body("hello me".as_bytes().to_vec()).unwrap();

        http_request.respond(response).unwrap();
    }
});

let mut s = ::std::net::TcpStream::connect("127.0.0.1:8080").unwrap();

s.write(incoming_request).unwrap();

let response = {
    let mut reader = BufReader::new(&mut s);
    kl_http::parse_into_response(&mut reader)
};

println!("{}", String::from_utf8_lossy(&response.unwrap().to_http()));

listening_thread.join().expect("Thread joining failed.");

} ```
