| Description |
This HTTP extension aims to provide a convenient and powerful
set of functionality for one of PHPs major applications.
It eases handling of HTTP urls, dates, redirects, headers and
messages, provides means for negotiation of clients preferred
language and charset, as well as a convenient way to send any
arbitrary data with caching and resuming capabilities.
It provides powerful request functionality, if built with CURL
support. Parallel requests are available for PHP 5 and greater. |
Release notes
Version 2.0.0dev2
(devel) |
This is to become v2 of the known pecl_http extension.
It is completely incompatible to previous version.
Try it, or let it be. If you are not sure, let it be. Really.
List of changes (TBD):
* Everything lives below the http namespace
* Supported request libraries: curl, neon
* The message body is implemented as a temp stream instead of a chunk of memory
* The utterly misunderstood HttpResponse class has been reimplemented in the http\env namespace
* There's only http\Exception
* Every instance follows http\Object::$defaultErrorHandling or inherited http\Object->errorHandling, but only for errors generated by the extension itself |
