-- Client-side HTTP library.
--
-- The return value of each function in this module is a table with the
-- following keys: status
, status-line
,
-- header
, and body
. status
is a number
-- representing the HTTP status code returned in response to the HTTP request.
-- In case of an unhandled error, status
is nil
.
-- status-line
is the entire status message which includes the HTTP
-- version, status code, and reason phrase. The header
value is a
-- table containing key-value pairs of HTTP headers received in response to the
-- request. The header names are in lower-case and are the keys to their
-- corresponding header values (e.g. header.location
=
-- "http://nmap.org/"
). Multiple headers of the same name are
-- concatenated and separated by commas. The body
value is a string
-- containing the body of the HTTP response.
-- @copyright Same as Nmap--See http://nmap.org/book/man-legal.html
-- @args http-max-cache-size The maximum memory size (in bytes) of the cache.
--
-- @args http.useragent The value of the User-Agent header field sent with
-- requests. By default it is
-- "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Nmap Scripting Engine; http://nmap.org/book/nse.html)"
.
-- A value of the empty string disables sending the User-Agent header field.
-- @args pipeline If set, it represents the number of HTTP requests that'll be
-- pipelined (ie, sent in a single request). This can be set low to make
-- debugging easier, or it can be set high to test how a server reacts (its
-- chosen max is ignored).
