HTTPParser

HTTPParser is an HTTP (RFC 2616) parser for Swift 3.0.

Features

• Asynchronous parsing
• Handles persistent streams (keep-alive)
• Decodes chunked encoding
• Defends against buffer overflow attacks

HTTPParser wraps the C library http_parser used by node.js.

Usage

The parser works asynchronously so you should keep feeding it data that until it returns a request/response.

let parser = RequestParser()

while true {
    do {
        let data = getDataFromSomewhere()
        if let request = try parser.parse(data) {
            // do something with request
        }
    } catch {
        // something bad happened :(
        break
    }
}

Parser works the same way for requests and responses.

let parser = ResponseParser()

while true {
    do {
        let data = getDataFromSomewhere()
        if let response = try parser.parse(data) {
            // do something with response
        }
    } catch {
        // something bad happened :(
        break
    }
}
