httplike v1.0.2

httplike

node.js package for parsing http-like protocols

Installation

npm install httplike

Usage

var Parser = require('httplike');
var p = new Parser(socket);
p.on('message', function(msg) {
  console.log(msg.method);
  console.log(msg.headers);
  console.log(msg.content);
});

Protocol Assumptions

httplike assumes that the incoming protocol follows HTTP standards on using the Content-Length header to determine how many bytes to wait for in a response body.
