nightfly

This project is an ongoing effort to port the reqwest library to the lunatic runtime

What works:

• json, text and bytes for request and response bodies
• decompression with brotli, gzip and deflate
• redirect handling
• cookies
• chunked responses
• handling of multiple open tcp streams per client
• timeouts (needs some more testing)
• Piping of responses (requires chunk-encoding)
• pooling of connections (needs more usage of lib to find a good approach)
• proxy handling
• upgrade, socks5 support and websockets
• custom dns resolver

An ergonomic, batteries-included HTTP Client for the lunatic runtime written in Rust.

• Plain bodies, JSON, urlencoded, multipart (see examples)

• Redirects with different policies

• HTTPS via lunatic-native TLS (see examples)

• Cookie Store

• Customizable function-based redirect policy (IN PROGRESS)

• HTTP Proxies (IN PROGRESS)

Example

This example uses Lunatic and enables some optional features, so your Cargo.toml could look like this:

[dependencies]
nightfly = { "0.1.0" }
lunatic = { "0.12.0" }

And then the code:

use std::collections::HashMap;

#[lunatic::main]
fn main() {
    let resp = nightfly::get("https://httpbin.org/ip")
        .unwrap()
        .json::<HashMap<String, String>>()
        .unwrap();
    println!("{:#?}", resp);
    Ok(())
}

Requirements

• A running version of the lunatic VM.
