type body = [

| `String of string
| `Stream of byte_stream
| `Void

]

Body of a response, either as a simple string, or a stream of bytes, or nothing (for server-sent events).

type t = {

code : Response_code.t;
(*
HTTP response code. See Response_code.
*)
headers : Headers.t;
(*
Headers of the reply. Some will be set by Tiny_httpd automatically.
*)
body : body;
(*
Body of the response. Can be empty.
*)

}

A response to send back to a client.

val make_raw : ?headers:Headers.t -> code:Response_code.t -> string -> t

Make a response from its raw components, with a string body. Use "" to not send a body at all.

val make_raw_stream : 
  ?headers:Headers.t ->
  code:Response_code.t ->
  byte_stream ->
  t

Same as make_raw but with a stream body. The body will be sent with the chunked transfer-encoding.

val make : ?headers:Headers.t -> (body, Response_code.t * string) result -> t

make r turns a result into a response.

make (Ok body) replies with 200 and the body.
make (Error (code,msg)) replies with the given error code and message as body.

val make_string : 
  ?headers:Headers.t ->
  (string, Response_code.t * string) result ->
  t

Same as make but with a string body.

val make_stream : 
  ?headers:Headers.t ->
  (byte_stream, Response_code.t * string) result ->
  t

Same as make but with a stream body.

val fail : 
  ?headers:Headers.t ->
  code:int ->
  ('a, unit, string, t) format4 ->
  'a

Make the current request fail with the given code and message. Example: fail ~code:404 "oh noes, %s not found" "waldo".

val fail_raise : code:int -> ('a, unit, string, 'b) format4 -> 'a

Similar to fail but raises an exception that exits the current handler. This should not be used outside of a (path) handler. Example: fail_raise ~code:404 "oh noes, %s not found" "waldo"; never_executed()

val pp : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

Pretty print the response.
