Module Cohttp_lwt_jsoo.Client_sync

The Client_sync module implements an HTTP client interface using synchronous XmlHttpRequests. The response is not chunked and treated as raw bytes. withCredentials property of XHR is set to false.

type ctx
  • 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.

include Cohttp.Generic.Client.S with type 'a io = 'a Lwt.t and type body = Cohttp_lwt.Body.t and type 'a with_context = ?ctx:ctx -> 'a
type 'a io = 'a Lwt.t
type 'a with_context = ?ctx:ctx -> 'a
type body = Cohttp_lwt.Body.t
val map_context : 'a with_context -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'b with_context
val call : (?headers:Http.Header.t -> ?body:body -> ?chunked:bool -> Http.Method.t -> Uri.t -> (Http.Response.t * body) io) with_context

call ?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.

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.
