DESCRIPTION

Fast and simple asynchronous http client fornginx-perl. Supports keepalive.

EXPORT

ngx_httpngx_http_client

FUNCTIONS

ngx_http "$ip:$port:key=value;key=value...", $request, sub { }

Establishes new connection with$ip:$port and sends raw HTTP request.$request should be either scalar or scalar reference. Additionally there are two options available:timeout andssl. E.g.:

ngx_http "1.2.3.4:443:ssl=1;timeout=15", ...ngx_http "1.2.3.4:80:timeout=15", ...ngx_http "1.2.3.4:80", ...

Calls back with parsed response header in$_[0] and scalar reference to the body in$_[1].

$headers =  {  _status        => 503,               content-type   => ['text/html'],               content-length => [1234],               ...                              };$body = \"foobar";

$body is cleared right after the callback, so you have to copy its content if you want to use it later.

On error calls back without any arguments. Tries to reconnect on the next request.

For now every connection is cached forever. But you can usengx_http_client to create desired caching behaviour.

ngx_http "1.2.3.4:80", "GET / HTTP/1.1"   . "\x0d\x0a" .                       "Host: localhost"  . "\x0d\x0a" .                       ""                 . "\x0d\x0a"   , sub {        my ($headers, $body_ref) = @_;        unless ($headers) {        ngx_log_error $!, "error";        return;    }        ngx_log_notice 0, "got $headers->{'_status'}";    ...};
