lazyhttp

A simple HTTP library to handle common stream objects (TcpStream, TlsStream, etc) sending HTTP data. This library is very simple and is intended to make reading raw HTTP less repetitive, and as such it does not handle responding or networking.

lazyhttp

An easy library to handle stream objects (TcpStream, TlsStream, etc) transferring HTTP data, providing functions which return a Request from the http crate.

This library does not handle networking or responding. This is really intended to remove a snippet of code that I find myself copying and pasting over and over again.

Important: This library will also only accept bodies if they are sent with a Content-Length header.

Example

let listener = TcpListener::bind("addr");

for stream in listener.incoming() {
    let stream = stream.unwrap();

    if let Ok(req) = lazyhttp::handle_stream(&stream) {
        // Do something with req
    }
}

Note, this is not a good example for production code. Remember proper error handling and some form of async or multithreading for a server environment.
