Custom HTTP Parser

A custom HTTP Parser that attempts to be compliant with some of HTTP Semantics defined as of RFC 9110. Furthermore the focus will be on HTTP/1.1 as per RFC 9112

This is built purely for educational purposes as to get a deeper understanding for how the HTTP protocol works underneath the hood.

TODO

• Body parsing
  • Partially implemented. Support for text/plain
• Streaming
• Error handling
• Etc?

Example of using the library

c, err := http.NewHttpClient(http.TcpDialContext("example.com:80"))
if err != nil {
  slog.Error("Error while creating http client", "err", err)
  return
}

resp, err := c.Get("/")
if err != nil {
  slog.Error("Error calling GET on uri", "err", err)
  return
}

slog.Info("Received response", "body", string(resp.Body))
