13 =head1 DESCRIPTION
14
15 This module is an L<AnyEvent> user, you need to make sure that you use and
16 run a supported event loop.
17
18 This module implements a simple, stateless and non-blocking HTTP
19 client. It supports GET, POST and other request methods, cookies and more,
20 all on a very low level. It can follow redirects supports proxies and
21 automatically limits the number of connections to the values specified in
22 the RFC.
23
24 It should generally be a "good client" that is enough for most HTTP
25 tasks. Simple tasks should be simple, but complex tasks should still be
26 possible as the user retains control over request and response headers.
27
28 The caller is responsible for authentication management, cookies (if
29 the simplistic implementation in this module doesn't suffice), referer
30 and other high-level protocol details for which this module offers only
31 limited support.

73 =item http_get $url, key => value..., $cb->($data, $headers)
74
75 Executes an HTTP-GET request. See the http_request function for details on
76 additional parameters and the return value.
77
78 =item http_head $url, key => value..., $cb->($data, $headers)
79
80 Executes an HTTP-HEAD request. See the http_request function for details
81 on additional parameters and the return value.
82
83 =item http_post $url, $body, key => value..., $cb->($data, $headers)
84
85 Executes an HTTP-POST request with a request body of C<$body>. See the
86 http_request function for details on additional parameters and the return
87 value.
88
89 =item http_request $method => $url, key => value..., $cb->($data, $headers)
90
91 Executes a HTTP request of type C<$method> (e.g. C<GET>, C<POST>). The URL
92 must be an absolute http or https URL.
93
94 When called in void context, nothing is returned. In other contexts,
95 C<http_request> returns a "cancellation guard" - you have to keep the
96 object at least alive until the callback get called. If the object gets
97 destroyed before the callbakc is called, the request will be cancelled.
98
99 The callback will be called with the response body data as first argument
100 (or C<undef> if an error occured), and a hash-ref with response headers as
101 second argument.
102
103 All the headers in that hash are lowercased. In addition to the response
104 headers, the "pseudo-headers" C<HTTPVersion>, C<Status> and C<Reason>
105 contain the three parts of the HTTP Status-Line of the same name. The
106 pseudo-header C<URL> contains the original URL (which can differ from the
107 requested URL when following redirects).
108
109 If the server sends a header multiple times, then their contents will be
110 joined together with a comma (C<,>), as per the HTTP spec.
111
112 If an internal error occurs, such as not being able to resolve a hostname,
113 then C<$data> will be C<undef>, C<< $headers->{Status} >> will be C<59x>
114 (usually C<599>) and the C<Reason> pseudo-header will contain an error
115 message.
116
117 A typical callback might look like this:
118
119 sub {
120 my ($body, $hdr) = @_;
121
122 if ($hdr->{Status} =~ /^2/) {
123 ... everything should be ok
124 } else {
125 print "error, $hdr->{Status} $hdr->{Reason}\n";
126 }
127 }
128
129 Additional parameters are key-value pairs, and are fully optional. They
130 include:
131
132 =over 4
133
134 =item recurse => $count (default: $MAX_RECURSE)
135
136 Whether to recurse requests or not, e.g. on redirects, authentication
137 retries and so on, and how often to do so.
138
139 =item headers => hashref
140
141 The request headers to use. Currently, C<http_request> may provide its
142 own C<Host:>, C<Content-Length:>, C<Connection:> and C<Cookie:> headers
143 and will provide defaults for C<User-Agent:> and C<Referer:>.
144
145 =item timeout => $seconds
146
147 The time-out to use for various stages - each connect attempt will reset
148 the timeout, as will read or write activity. Default timeout is 5 minutes.
149
150 =item proxy => [$host, $port[, $scheme]] or undef
151
152 Use the given http proxy for all requests. If not specified, then the
153 default proxy (as specified by C<$ENV{http_proxy}>) is used.
154
155 C<$scheme> must be either missing or C<http> for HTTP, or C<https> for
156 HTTPS.
157
158 =item body => $string
159
160 The request body, usually empty. Will be-sent as-is (future versions of
161 this module might offer more options).
162
163 =item cookie_jar => $hash_ref
164
165 Passing this parameter enables (simplified) cookie-processing, loosely
166 based on the original netscape specification.
167
168 The C<$hash_ref> must be an (initially empty) hash reference which will
169 get updated automatically. It is possible to save the cookie_jar to
170 persistent storage with something like JSON or Storable, but this is not
171 recommended, as expiry times are currently being ignored.
172
173 Note that this cookie implementation is not of very high quality, nor
174 meant to be complete. If you want complete cookie management you have to
175 do that on your own. C<cookie_jar> is meant as a quick fix to get some
176 cookie-using sites working. Cookies are a privacy disaster, do not use
177 them unless required to.
178
179 =item tls_ctx => $scheme | $tls_ctx
180
181 Specifies the AnyEvent::TLS context to be used for https connections. This
182 parameter follows the same rules as the C<tls_ctx> parameter to
183 L<AnyEvent::Handle>, but additionally, the two strings C<low> or
184 C<high> can be specified, which give you a predefined low-security (no
185 verification, highest compatibility) and high-security (CA and common-name
186 verification) TLS context.
187
188 The default for this option is C<low>, which could be interpreted as "give
189 me the page, no matter what".
190
191 =item on_header => $callback->($headers)
192
193 When specified, this callback will be called with the header hash as soon
194 as headers have been successfully received from the remote server (not on
195 locally-generated errors).
196
197 It has to return either true (in which case AnyEvent::HTTP will continue),
198 or false, in which case AnyEvent::HTTP will cancel the download (and call
199 the finish callback with an error code of C<598>).
200
201 This callback is useful, among other things, to quickly reject unwanted
202 content, which, if it is supposed to be rare, can be faster than first
203 doing a C<HEAD> request.
204
205 Example: cancel the request unless the content-type is "text/html".
206
207 on_header => sub {
208 $_[0]{"content-type"} =~ /^text\/html\s*(?:;|$)/
209 },
210
211 =item on_body => $callback->($partial_body, $headers)
212
213 When specified, all body data will be passed to this callback instead of
214 to the completion callback. The completion callback will get the empty
215 string instead of the body data.
216
217 It has to return either true (in which case AnyEvent::HTTP will continue),
218 or false, in which case AnyEvent::HTTP will cancel the download (and call
219 the completion callback with an error code of C<598>).
220
221 This callback is useful when the data is too large to be held in memory
222 (so the callback writes it to a file) or when only some information should
223 be extracted, or when the body should be processed incrementally.
224
225 It is usually preferred over doing your own body handling via
226 C<want_body_handle>.
227
228 =item want_body_handle => $enable
229
230 When enabled (default is disabled), the behaviour of AnyEvent::HTTP
231 changes considerably: after parsing the headers, and instead of
232 downloading the body (if any), the completion callback will be
233 called. Instead of the C<$body> argument containing the body data, the
234 callback will receive the L<AnyEvent::Handle> object associated with the
235 connection. In error cases, C<undef> will be passed. When there is no body
236 (e.g. status C<304>), the empty string will be passed.
237
238 The handle object might or might not be in TLS mode, might be connected to
239 a proxy, be a persistent connection etc., and configured in unspecified
240 ways. The user is responsible for this handle (it will not be used by this
241 module anymore).
242
243 This is useful with some push-type services, where, after the initial
244 headers, an interactive protocol is used (typical example would be the
245 push-style twitter API which starts a JSON/XML stream).
246
247 If you think you need this, first have a look at C<on_body>, to see if
248 that doesn'T solve your problem in a better way.

252 Example: make a simple HTTP GET request for http://www.nethype.de/
253
254 http_request GET => "http://www.nethype.de/", sub {
255 my ($body, $hdr) = @_;
256 print "$body\n";
257 };
258
259 Example: make a HTTP HEAD request on https://www.google.com/, use a
260 timeout of 30 seconds.
261
262 http_request
263 GET => "https://www.google.com",
264 timeout => 30,

273 cancel it.

726 string of the form C<http://host:port> (optionally C<https:...>).
727
728 =item $AnyEvent::HTTP::MAX_RECURSE
729
730 The default value for the C<recurse> request parameter (default: C<10>).
731
732 =item $AnyEvent::HTTP::USERAGENT
733
734 The default value for the C<User-Agent> header (the default is
735 C<Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; U; AnyEvent-HTTP/$VERSION; +http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/AnyEvent)>).
736
737 =item $AnyEvent::HTTP::MAX_PERSISTENT
738
739 The maximum number of persistent connections to keep open (default: 8).

741 Not implemented currently.
742
743 =item $AnyEvent::HTTP::PERSISTENT_TIMEOUT
744
745 The maximum time to cache a persistent connection, in seconds (default: 2).
746
747 Not implemented currently.
748
749 =item $AnyEvent::HTTP::ACTIVE
750
751 The number of active connections. This is not the number of currently
752 running requests, but the number of currently open and non-idle TCP
753 connections. This number of can be useful for load-leveling.
