.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP
Basic support for HTTP serving\&.
As Libevent is a library for dealing with event notification and most interesting applications are networked today, I have often found the need to write HTTP code\&. The following prototypes and definitions provide an application with a minimal interface for making HTTP requests and for creating a very simple HTTP server\&.
.SH "Macro Definition Documentation"
.PP
.SS "#define EVHTTP_URI_NONCONFORMANT 0x01"
.PP
Tolerate URIs that do not conform to RFC3986\&. Unfortunately, some HTTP clients generate URIs that, according to RFC3986, are not conformant URIs\&. If you need to support these URIs, you can do so by passing this flag to evhttp_uri_parse_with_flags\&.
.PP
Currently, these changes are:
.PD 0
.IP "\(bu" 2
Nonconformant URIs are allowed to contain otherwise unreasonable characters in their path, query, and fragment components\&.
.PP
.SH "Enumeration Type Documentation"
.PP
.SS "enum \fBevhttp_cmd_type\fP"
.PP
The different request types supported by evhttp\&. These are as specified in RFC2616, except for PATCH which is specified by RFC5789\&.
.PP
By default, only some of these methods are accepted and passed to user callbacks; use \fBevhttp_set_allowed_methods()\fP to change which methods are allowed\&.
.SH "Function Documentation"
.PP
.SS "int evhttp_accept_socket (struct evhttp *http, \fBevutil_socket_t\fPfd)"
.PP
Makes an HTTP server accept connections on the specified socket\&. This may be useful to create a socket and then fork multiple instances of an http server, or when a socket has been communicated via file descriptor passing in situations where an http servers does not have permissions to bind to a low-numbered port\&.
.PP
Can be called multiple times to have the http server listen to multiple different sockets\&.

\fBParameters:\fP
.RS 4
\fIhttp\fP a pointer to an evhttp object

\fIfd\fP a socket fd that is ready for accepting connections

\fIdecode_plus\fP determines whether we convert '+' to sapce\&.
.br
\fIsize_out\fP if size_out is not NULL, *size_out is set to the size of the returned string
.RE
.PP
\fBReturns:\fP
.RS 4
a newly allocated unencoded URI or NULL on failure

.SS "char* evhttp_uriencode (const char *str, ev_ssize_tsize, intspace_to_plus)"
.PP
As evhttp_encode_uri, but if 'size' is nonnegative, treat the string as being 'size' bytes long\&. This allows you to encode strings that may contain 0-valued bytes\&.
.PP
The returned string must be freed by the caller\&.
.PP
\fBParameters:\fP
.RS 4
\fIstr\fP an unencoded string
.br
\fIsize\fP the length of the string to encode, or -1 if the string is NUL-terminated
.br
\fIspace_to_plus\fP if true, space characters in 'str' are encoded as +, not %20\&.
