http.response

The http module is experimental.

Represents an HTTP response. This extra level of indirection — as opposed to as, for instance, making it part of http.socket — makes it easier to map semantics such as HTTP pipelining w/o imposing even more confusing state machines.

Functions

`new() → http.response`

Constructor.

Attributes

`status: integer`

The HTTP status code.

`reason: string`

The HTTP reason phrase.

`headers: http.headers`

The HTTP headers.

`body: string`

The HTTP body.

That’s a clunky abstraction actually. It’ll be replaced in a future release for a proper byte span abstraction (e.g. Go’s slices).

`trailers: http.headers`

The HTTP trailers.
