http

Recently seen a rant about how FOSS devs should stop naming things because "eks em pee pee" is a terrible name.

I guess "eidj titty pee" is out as well then.

How I Write HTTP Servers

I have working handler functions for the hare-http library that work with the standard http::response_writer and http::request that needs no context of an actual server. There's a...

http::handle(h: *http::handler, wr: *http::response_writer, r: *http::request) void

That you can use with http::serve() and you can create handlers with basic functions, a route mux, and middleware chains that lets you build complex routing paths and middlewares. I just need to add support for path placeholder values for the mux.

I will probably send a patch at some point and offer to maintain it. I've been interested in becoming a maintainer on this for a while, so maybe it is time to inquire.
