Client API
----------
The request callback is called in the same thread where HTTP request
is handled. And many connections shares the same thread, we cannot
directly run blocking tasks in request callback.
To run blocking tasks, use
``nghttp2::asio_http2::server::request::run_task``. The passed
callback will be executed in the different thread from the thread
where request callback was executed. So application can perform
blocking task there. The example follows:
To use client API, first include following header file:
.. code-block:: cpp
#include <unistd.h>
#include <nghttp2/asio_http2.h>
#include <nghttp2/asio_http2_client.h>
Also take a look at that header file :doc:`asio_http2_client.h`.
Here is the sample client code to access HTTP/2 server and print out
response header fields and response body to the console screen:
.. code-block:: cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <nghttp2/asio_http2_client.h>
using boost::asio::ip::tcp;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2::server;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2::client;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
http2 server;
boost::system::error_code ec;
boost::asio::io_service io_service;
server.num_concurrent_tasks(16);
// connect to localhost:3000
session sess(io_service, "localhost", "3000");
server.listen("*", 3000, [](const std::shared_ptr<request> &req,
const std::shared_ptr<response> &res) {
req->run_task([res](channel &channel) {
// executed in different thread than the thread where
// request callback was executed.
sess.on_connect([&sess](tcp::resolver::iterator endpoint_it) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
// using res directly here is not safe. Capturing it by
// value is safe because it is std::shared_ptr.
auto req = sess.submit(ec, "GET", "http://localhost:3000/");
sleep(1);
req->on_response([](const response &res) {
// print status code and response header fields.
std::cerr << "HTTP/2 " << res.status_code() << std::endl;
for (auto &kv : res.header()) {
std::cerr << kv.first << ": " << kv.second.value << "\n";
}
std::cerr << std::endl;
channel.post([res]() {
// executed in the same thread where request callback
// was executed.
res->write_head(200);
res->end("hello, world");
});
});
res.on_data([](const uint8_t *data, std::size_t len) {
std::cerr.write(reinterpret_cast<const char *>(data), len);
std::cerr << std::endl;
});
});
req->on_close([&sess](uint32_t error_code) {
// shutdown session after first request was done.
sess.shutdown();
});
});
sess.on_error([](const boost::system::error_code &ec) {
std::cerr << "error: " << ec.message() << std::endl;
});
io_service.run();
}
First we set the number of background threads which run tasks. By
default it is set to 1. In this example, we set it to 16, so at most
16 tasks can be executed concurrently without blocking handling new
requests.
``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::session`` object takes
``boost::asio::io_service`` object and remote server address. When
connection is made, the callback function passed to
``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::on_connect`` is invoked with connected
address as its paramter. After this callback call, use
``nghttp2::asio_http2::session::submit`` to send request to the
server. You can submit multiple requests at once without waiting for
the completion of previous request.
We call ``req->run_task()`` to execute task in background thread. In
the passed callback, we just simply sleeps 1 second. After sleep is
over, we schedule another callback to send response to the client.
Since the callback passed to ``req->run_task()`` is executed in the
different thread from the thread where request callback is called,
using ``req`` or ``res`` object directly there may cause undefined
behaviour. To avoid this issue, we can use
``nghttp2::asio_http2::channel::post`` by supplying a callback which
in turn get called in the same thread where request callback was
called.
The life time of req and res object ends after the callback set by
``nghttp2::asio_http2::server::request::on_close`` function.
Application must not use those objects after this call.
Normally, client does not stop even after all requests are done unless
connection is lost. To stop client, call
``nghttp2::asio_http2::server::session::shutdown()``.
Recieve server push and enable SSL/TLS

using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2;

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
boost::asio::io_service io_service;
boost::asio::ssl::context tls(boost::asio::ssl::context::sslv23);
tls.set_default_verify_paths();
// disabled to make development easier...
// tls_ctx.set_verify_mode(boost::asio::ssl::verify_peer);
configure_tls_context(ec, tls);
// connect to localhost:3000
session sess(io_service, tls, "localhost", "3000");
sess.on_connect([&sess](tcp::resolver::iterator endpoint_it) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
auto req = sess.submit(ec, "GET", "http://localhost:3000/");
req->on_response([&sess](const response &res) {
std::cerr << "response received!" << std::endl;
res.on_data([&sess](const uint8_t *data, std::size_t len) {
std::cerr.write(reinterpret_cast<const char *>(data), len);
std::cerr << std::endl;
});
});
req->on_push([](const request &push) {
std::cerr << "push request received!" << std::endl;
push.on_response([](const response &res) {
std::cerr << "push response received!" << std::endl;
res.on_data([](const uint8_t *data, std::size_t len) {
std::cerr.write(reinterpret_cast<const char *>(data), len);
std::cerr << std::endl;
});
});
});
});
sess.on_error([](const boost::system::error_code &ec) {
std::cerr << "error: " << ec.message() << std::endl;
});
io_service.run();
}
The above sample code demonstrates how to enable SSL/TLS and receive
server push. Currently,
``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::configure_tls_context`` function setups
NPN callbacks for SSL/TLS context for HTTP/2 use.
To receive server push, use
``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::request::on_push`` function to set
callback function which is invoked when server push request is
arrived. The callback function takes
``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::request`` object, which contains the
pushed request. To get server push response, set callback using
``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::request::on_response``.
As stated in the previous section, client does not stop automatically
as long as HTTP/2 session is fine and connection is alive. We don't
call ``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::session::shutdown`` in this
example, so the program does not terminate after all responses are
received. Hit Ctrl-C to terminate the program.
Multiple concurrent requests

.. code-block:: cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <nghttp2/asio_http2_client.h>
using boost::asio::ip::tcp;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2::client;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
boost::asio::io_service io_service;
// connect to localhost:3000
session sess(io_service, "localhost", "3000");
sess.on_connect([&sess](tcp::resolver::iterator endpoint_it) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
auto printer = [](const response &res) {
res.on_data([](const uint8_t *data, std::size_t len) {
std::cerr.write(reinterpret_cast<const char *>(data), len);
std::cerr << std::endl;
});
};
std::size_t num = 3;
auto count = std::make_shared<int>(num);
for (std::size_t i = 0; i < num; ++i) {
auto req = sess.submit(ec, "GET",
"http://localhost:3000/" + std::to_string(i + 1));
req->on_response(printer);
req->on_close([&sess, count](uint32_t error_code) {
if (--*count == 0) {
// shutdown session after |num| requests were done.
sess.shutdown();
}
});
}
});
sess.on_error([](const boost::system::error_code &ec) {
std::cerr << "error: " << ec.message() << std::endl;
});
io_service.run();
}
Here is the sample to send 3 requests at once. Depending on the
server settings, these requests are processed out-of-order. In this
example, we have a trick to shutdown session after all requests were
done. We made ``count`` object which is shared pointer to int and is
initialized to 3. On each request closure (the invocation of the
callback set by ``nghttp2::asio_http2::client::request::on_close``),
we decrement the count. If count becomes 0, we are sure that all
requests have been done and initiate shutdown.
