ark::comms::HttpRequestParser

Defined in header “ark/comms/http_request.hh”.

---

A very simple class meant for decoding HTTP requests. You can use this class to consume bytes from a socket and decode them into requests, or generate your own requests.

Methods

• void add_bytes(const std::string & bytes)
  Adds bytes onto the given HTTP request. As you consume bytes, you can check to see when the request is ready, and then generate it.

• bool ready()
  Returns true if we have consumed enough bytes to produce a valid HTTP request, or false otherwise.

• HttpRequest parse()
  Parses the bytes that have been received to date, in order to produce a valid HTTP request.

• size_t size()
  Returns the number of bytes in the buffer to date.

• core::ByteBuffer & data()
  Return a reference to the underlying byte buffer, to support more efficient reads.
