http.compat.prosody

Provides usage similar to prosody's net.http

request(url, ex, callback) {#http.compat.prosody.request}

A few key differences to the prosody net.http.request:

• must be called from within a running cqueue
• The callback may be called from a different thread in the cqueue
• The returned object will be a http.request object
  • This object is passed to the callback on errors and as the fourth argument on success
• The default user-agent will be from lua-http (rather than "Prosody XMPP Server")
• lua-http features (such as HTTP2) will be used where possible

Example {#http.compat.prosody-example}

local prosody_http = require "http.compat.prosody"
local cqueues = require "cqueues"
local cq = cqueues.new()
cq:wrap(function()
    prosody_http.request("http://httpbin.org/ip", {}, function(b, c, r)
        print(c) --> 200
        print(b) --> {"origin": "123.123.123.123"}
    end)
end)
assert(cq:loop())
