22 (** Minimal implementation of an HTTP 1.0/1.1 client. Interface is similar to
23 * Gerd Stoplmann's Http_client module. Implementation is simpler and doesn't
24 * handle HTTP redirection, proxies, ecc. The only reason for the existence of
25 * this module is for performances and incremental elaboration of response's
28 exception Http_error of (int * string) (* code, body *)
30 (** @param url an HTTP url
31 * @return HTTP response's body
32 * @raise Http_error when response code <> 200 *)
33 val get: string -> string
35 (** as above but iter callback function on HTTP response's body instead of
36 * returning it as a string *)
37 val get_iter: (string -> unit) -> string -> unit
39 (** @param url an HTTP url
40 * @return HTTP HEAD raw response
41 * @raise Http_error when response code <> 200 *)
42 val head: string -> string
