http.compat.socket
Provides compatibility with luasocket's http.request module.
Differences:
- Will automatically be non-blocking when run inside a cqueues managed coroutine
- lua-http features (such as HTTP2) will be used where possible
Example {#http.compat.socket-example}
Using the 'simple' interface as part of a normal script:
local socket_http = require "http.compat.socket"
local body, code = assert(socket_http.request("http://lua.org"))
print(code, #body) --> 200, 2514
