httpclient_new_from_proxy() is a variant of httpclient_new() which
allows to create the requests from a different proxy.
The proxy and its 2 servers are now stored in the httpclient structure.
The proxy must have been created with httpclient_create_proxy() to be
used.
The httpclient_postcheck() callback will finish the initialization of
all proxies created with PR_CAP_HTTPCLIENT.
Add the ability to set a "server timeout" on the httpclient with either
the httpclient_set_timeout() API or the timeout argument in a request.
Issue #1470.
This patch add a way to handle HTTP requests streaming using a
callback.
The end of the data must be specified by using the "end" parameter in
httpclient_req_xfer().
httpclient_stop_and_destroy() tries to destroy the httpclient structure
if the client was stopped.
In the case the client wasn't stopped, it ask the client to stop itself
and to destroy the httpclient structure itself during the release of the
applet.
This commit implements a very simple HTTP Client API.
A client can be operated by several functions:
- httpclient_new(), httpclient_destroy(): create
and destroy the struct httpclient instance.
- httpclient_req_gen(): generate a complete HTX request using the
the absolute URL, the method and a list of headers. This request
is complete and sets the HTX End of Message flag. This is limited
to small request we don't need a body.
- httpclient_start() fill a sockaddr storage with a IP extracted
from the URL (it cannot resolve an fqdm for now), start the
applet. It also stores the ptr of the caller which could be an
appctx or something else.
- hc->ops contains a list of callbacks used by the
HTTPClient, they should be filled manually after an
httpclient_new():
* res_stline(): the client received a start line, its content
will be stored in hc->res.vsn, hc->res.status, hc->res.reason
* res_headers(): the client received headers, they are stored in
hc->res.hdrs.
* res_payload(): the client received some payload data, they are
stored in the hc->res.buf buffer and could be extracted with the
httpclient_res_xfer() function, which takes a destination buffer
as a parameter
* res_end(): this callback is called once we finished to receive
the response.
