◆ Cookies

using clients::http::Request::Cookies = std::unordered_map<std::string, std::string, utils::StrCaseHash>

Request cookies container type.

Definition at line 79 of file request.hpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ async_perform()

ResponseFuture clients::http::Request::async_perform ( utils::impl::SourceLocation location = utils::impl::SourceLocation::Current() )

Perform request asynchronously.

Works well with engine::WaitAny, engine::WaitAnyFor, and engine::WaitUntil functions:

std::size_t ProcessReadyRequests(std::vector<clients::http::ResponseFuture>& requests, engine::Deadline deadline) {
    std::size_t processed_requests = 0;
 
    while (auto indx = engine::WaitAnyUntil(deadline, requests)) {
        ++processed_requests;
 
        std::shared_ptr<clients::http::Response> response = requests[*indx].Get();
        EXPECT_TRUE(response->IsOk());
    }
 
    return processed_requests;
}

Request object could be reused after retrieval of data from ResponseFuture, all the setup holds:

std::string DifferentUrlsRetry(
    std::string data,
    clients::http::Client& http,
    std::chrono::milliseconds timeout,
    std::initializer_list<std::string> urls_list
) {
    auto request = http.CreateRequest()
                       .post()
                       .data(std::move(data))  // no copying
                       .retry(1)
                       .http_version(USERVER_NAMESPACE::http::HttpVersion::k11)
                       .timeout(timeout);
 
    for (const auto& url : urls_list) {
        request.url(url);  // set URL
        auto future = request.async_perform();
 
        // ... do something while the request if being performed
 
        try {
            auto res = future.Get();
            if (res->IsOk()) {
                return std::move(*res).body();  // no copying
            }
        } catch (const clients::http::TimeoutException&) {
        }
    }
 
    throw std::runtime_error("No alive servers");
}

◆ async_perform_stream_body()

StreamedResponse clients::http::Request::async_perform_stream_body	(	const std::shared_ptr< concurrent::StringStreamQueue > &	queue,
		utils::impl::SourceLocation	location = utils::impl::SourceLocation::Current() )

Perform a request with streamed response body.

The HTTP client uses queue producer. StreamedResponse uses queue consumer.

◆ client_key_cert()

Request & clients::http::Request::client_key_cert	(	crypto::PrivateKey	pkey,
		crypto::Certificate	cert ) &

Set private client key and certificate for request.

Warning: Do not use this function on MacOS as it may cause Segmentation Fault on that platform.

◆ connect_to() [1/2]

Request & clients::http::Request::connect_to ( const ConnectTo & connect_to ) &

Set CURLOPT_CONNECT_TO option

Warning: connect_to argument must outlive Request

◆ connect_to() [2/2]

template<typename T >

std::enable_if_t< std::is_same_v< ConnectTo, T >, Request & > clients::http::Request::connect_to ( T && )

inline

Definition at line 242 of file request.hpp.

◆ DisableReplyDecoding()

Request & clients::http::Request::DisableReplyDecoding ( ) &

Disable auto-decoding of received replies. Useful to proxy replies 'as is'.

◆ perform()

std::shared_ptr< Response > clients::http::Request::perform ( utils::impl::SourceLocation location = utils::impl::SourceLocation::Current() )

Calls async_perform and wait for timeout_ms on a future. Default time for waiting will be timeout value if it was set. If error occurred it will be thrown as exception.

Request object could be reused after return from perform(), all the setup holds:

std::string DifferentUrlsRetry(
    std::string data,
    clients::http::Client& http,
    std::chrono::milliseconds timeout,
    std::initializer_list<std::string> urls_list
) {
    auto request = http.CreateRequest()
                       .post()
                       .data(std::move(data))  // no copying
                       .retry(1)
                       .http_version(USERVER_NAMESPACE::http::HttpVersion::k11)
                       .timeout(timeout);
 
    for (const auto& url : urls_list) {
        request.url(url);  // set URL
 
        try {
            auto res = request.perform();
            if (res->IsOk()) {
                return std::move(*res).body();  // no copying
            }
        } catch (const clients::http::TimeoutException&) {
        }
    }
 
    throw std::runtime_error("No alive servers");
}

Examples: libraries/easy/samples/4_custom_dependency/main.cpp, and libraries/easy/samples/5_pg_service_template/src/main.cpp.

◆ retry()

Request & clients::http::Request::retry	(	short	retries = 3,
		bool	on_fails = true ) &

Specify number of retries on incorrect status, if on_fails is True retry on network error too. Retries = 3 means that maximum 3 request will be performed.

Retries use exponential backoff with jitter - an exponentially increasing randomized delay is added before each retry of this request.

◆ SetDestinationMetricName()

Request & clients::http::Request::SetDestinationMetricName ( const std::string & destination ) &

Set destination name in metric "httpclient.destinations.<name>". If not set, defaults to HTTP path. Should be called for all requests with parameters in HTTP path.

◆ SetLoggedUrl()

Request & clients::http::Request::SetLoggedUrl ( std::string url ) &

Override log URL. Useful for "there's a secret in the query".

Warning: The query might be logged by other intermediate HTTP agents (nginx, L7 balancer, etc.).

◆ SetTracingManager()

Request & clients::http::Request::SetTracingManager ( const tracing::TracingManagerBase & ) &

Override the default tracing manager from HTTP client for this particular request.

◆ timeout() [1/2]

Request & clients::http::Request::timeout ( std::chrono::milliseconds timeout_ms ) &

inline

Definition at line 190 of file request.hpp.

◆ timeout() [2/2]

Request clients::http::Request::timeout ( std::chrono::milliseconds timeout_ms ) &&

inline

Definition at line 191 of file request.hpp.

◆ unix_socket_path()

Request & clients::http::Request::unix_socket_path ( const std::string & path ) &

Set unix domain socket as connection endpoint and provide path to it When enabled, request will connect to the Unix domain socket instead of establishing a TCP connection to a host.
