httpq is a small (~32KB) package to parse, modify, and compile HTTP/1.1 messages with a built-in state machine.

## Installing

```
pip install httpq
```

## Documentation

Documentation can be found [here](https://synchronizing.github.io/httpq/).

## Using

`httpq` has three methods to initialize a `httpq.Request` and `httpq.Response` object.

#### `__init__`

```python
import httpq

req = httpq.Request(
    method="GET",
    target="/get",
    protocol="HTTP/1.1",
    headers={
        "Host": "httpbin.org",
        "Content-Length": 12,
        "Accept": ["Accept: application/json", "Accept: text/plain"],
    },
    body="Hello world!",
)

resp = httpq.Response(
    protocol="HTTP/1.1",
    status=200,
    reason="OK",
    headers={"Content-Length": 12, "Content-Type": "text/plain"},
    body="Hello world!",
)
```

#### `parse`

```python
req = httpq.Request.parse(
    b"GET /get HTTP/1.1\r\n"
    b"Host: httpbin.org\r\n"
    b"Content-Length: 12\r\n"
    b"Accept: application/json\r\n"
    b"Accept: text/plain\r\n"
    b"\r\n"
    b"Hello world!"
)

resp = httpq.Response.parse(
    b"HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n"
    b"Content-Length: 12\r\n"
    b"Content-Type: text/plain\r\n"
    b"\r\n"
    b"Hello world!"
)
```

#### `feed`

```python
req = httpq.Request()
req.feed(b"GET /get HTTP/1.1\r\n")
req.feed(b"Host: httpbin.org\r\n")
req.feed(b"Content-Length: 18\r\n")
req.feed(b"Accept: application/json\r\n")
req.feed(b"Accept: text/plain\r\n")
req.feed(b"\r\n")
req.feed(b"Hello world!")

resp = httpq.Response()
resp.feed(b"HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n")
resp.feed(b"Content-Length: 12\r\n")
resp.feed(b"Content-Type: text/plain\r\n")
resp.feed(b"\r\n")
resp.feed(b"Hello world!")
```

The feed mechanism comes with a simple built-in state machine. The state machine can be in one of three states:

* `TOP`: The feed cursor is at the top of the message.
* `HEADER`: The feed cursor is at the headers.
* `BODY`: The feed cursor is at the body.

Once at the body it's the user's responsibility to keep track of the message length.

```python
import socket
import httpq

s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect(("httpbin.org", 80))

req = httpq.Request(
    method="GET",
    target="/get",
    protocol="HTTP/1.1",
    headers={"Host": "httpbin.org"},
)
s.sendall(req.raw)

resp = httpq.Response()
while resp.state != httpq.state.BODY:
    resp.feed(s.recv(10))

# At this stage we have a response that has read the top line and headers. It's the user's
# responsibility to keep track of the rest of the message's length. In this case, we'll just
# use the `Content-Length` header.
while len(resp.body) != resp.headers["Content-Length"]:
    resp.feed(s.recv(10))

print(resp)
```

Outputs:

```
← HTTP/1.1 200 OK
← Date: Sun, 12 Mar 2023 03:05:55 GMT
← Content-Type: application/json
← Content-Length: 197
← Connection: keep-alive
← Server: gunicorn/19.9.0
← Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
← Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
← 
← {
←   "args": {}, 
←   "headers": {
←     "Host": "httpbin.org", 
←     "X-Amzn-Trace-Id": "Root=1-640d4193-650c50825ec4415732dacde8"
←   }, 
←   "origin": "xx.xx.xx.xxx", 
←   "url": "http://httpbin.org/get"
← }
```

Note that the feed mechanism is used in conjunction with the `state` property. We can use this parse until the body of the message, and then use the captured headers to parse the body.

### Modifying and Comparisons

`httpq` also comes with an intuitive method to modify and compare message values:

```python
import httpq

req = httpq.Request(
    method="GET",
    target="/get",
    protocol="HTTP/1.1",
    headers={"Host": "httpbin.org", "Content-Length": 12},
    body="Hello world!",
)

resp = httpq.Response(
    protocol="HTTP/1.1",
    status=404,
    reason="Not Found",
    headers={"Content-Length": 12},
    body="Hello world!",
)

# string, bytes, and int are all valid values for any field.
req.method = "POST"
req.target = b"/"

resp.status = 200
resp.reason = "OK"
resp.headers += {"Accept": "*/*"}
```

Internally every value of a request or response is saved as an `Item`, a special object type that allows easy setting and comparisons on the fly.

```python
resp.status == 200      # >>> True
resp.status == "200"    # >>> True
resp.status == b"200"   # >>> True
```

Once the object is modified to the user's preference utilizing the `Request` and `Response` object is as easy as calling a property (specifically `.raw`):

```python
print(req.raw)
print(resp.raw)
```

```
b'POST / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: httpbin.org\r\nContent-Length: 12\r\n\r\nHello world!'
b'HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: 12\r\nAccept: */*\r\n\r\nHello world!'
```

Uniquely, the `__str__` method returns the objects with arrows to make obvious of its type:

```python
print(req)
print(resp)
```

```
→ POST / HTTP/1.1
→ Host: httpbin.org
→ Content-Length: 12
→ 
→ Hello world!

← HTTP/1.1 200 OK
← Content-Length: 12
← Accept: */*
← 
← Hello world!
```
