  1. Overview
  2. Docs

The Client module implements an HTTP client interface using asynchronous XmlHttpRequests. The response body is returned in chucked form with 128Kb / chunk. Body data is treated as raw bytes. withCredentials property of XHR is set to false.

type ctx
val set_cache : Cohttp_lwt.S.call -> unit

Provide a function used to process requests. Please see call. The provided function is only used when no ctx argument is passed to the convenience functions below.

val call : ?ctx:ctx -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> ?body:Cohttp_lwt.Body.t -> ?chunked:bool -> Http.Method.t -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt.t

call ?ctx ?headers ?body ?chunked meth uri

  • returns

    (response, response_body) Consume response_body in a timely fashion. Please see call about how and why.

  • parameter chunked

    use chunked encoding if true. The default is false for compatibility reasons.

  • parameter ctx

    If provided, no connection cache is used, but Connection_cache.Make_no_cache.create is used to resolve uri and create a dedicated connection with ctx.

    In most cases you should use the more specific helper calls in the interface rather than invoke this function directly. See head, get and post for some examples.

val head : ?ctx:ctx -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> Uri.t -> Http.Response.t Lwt.t
val get : ?ctx:ctx -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt.t
val delete : ?ctx:ctx -> ?body:Cohttp_lwt.Body.t -> ?chunked:bool -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt.t
val post : ?ctx:ctx -> ?body:Cohttp_lwt.Body.t -> ?chunked:bool -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt.t
val put : ?ctx:ctx -> ?body:Cohttp_lwt.Body.t -> ?chunked:bool -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt.t
val patch : ?ctx:ctx -> ?body:Cohttp_lwt.Body.t -> ?chunked:bool -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt.t
val post_form : ?ctx:ctx -> ?headers:Http.Header.t -> params:(string * string list) list -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt.t
val callv : ?ctx:ctx -> Uri.t -> (Http.Request.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt_stream.t -> (Http.Response.t * Cohttp_lwt.Body.t) Lwt_stream.t Lwt.t
