Webby is a collection of common HTTP data structures and functionality. This includes things like Url, HttpHeaders, QueryParams etc.

URL parsing is similar to the browsers's window.location.
let
test = "foo://admin:hunter1@example.com:8042/over/there?name=ferret#nose"
url = parseUrl(test)
url.scheme == "foo"
url.username == "admin"
url.password == "hunter1"
url.hostname == "example.com"
url.port == "8042"
url.authority == "admin:hunter1@example.com:8042"
url.paths == @["over", "there"]
url.path == "/over/there"
url.search == "name=ferret"
url.query["name"] == "ferret"
url.fragment == "nose"
$url == testvar headers: HttpHeaders
headers["Content-Type"] = "image/png"
if "Content-Encoding" in headers:
echo headers["Content-Encoding"]
for (k, v) in headers:
echo k, ": ", vEntries are stored in the order they are added. Procs like in, [] and []= are not case sensitive.
let
search = "?name=ferret&age=12&leg=1&leg=2&leg=3&leg=4"
params = parseSearch(search)var params: QueryParams
params["hash"] = "17c6d60"
if "hash" in headers:
echo params["hash"]
for (k, v) in headers:
echo k, ": ", vEntries are stored in the order they are added. Procs like in, [] and []= are case sensitive.
