http (client and server requests)

Provides http client requests to remote server and request-response objects for (Fast)CGI calls.

Usage:

var http=require("http");

Making client request (GET):

var http=require("http");

var req=new http.ClientRequest("https://google.com/");
var resp=req.send(true);
system.stdout.writeLine("Response status is:"+resp.status);
system.stdout.writeLine("Response is:");
system.stdout.writeLine(resp.data.toString("utf-8"));

Making client request (POST):

var http=require("http");

var req=new http.ClientRequest("https://google.com/");
req.header({"User-Agent":"My Agent"});
req.method="POST";
req.post={
    "login":"bbb",
    "password":"ddd"
};
var resp=req.send(true);
system.stdout.writeLine("Headers are:");
var resp_h=resp.headers();
for (var k in resp_h) {
    system.stdout.writeLine("    "+k+"="+resp_h[k]);
}
system.stdout.writeLine("Response is:");
system.stdout.writeLine(resp.data.toString("utf-8"));

Server-side:

function T(text)
{
    return t.replace(/&/g,"&amp;").replace(/</g,"&lt;").replace(/>/g,"&gt;");
}
var html=[];
html.push("<html><body>");

html.push("<h1>Request method is "+request.method+"</h1>");
var args=request[request.method.toLowerCase()];
html.push("<h2>Arguments are:</h2>")
for (var k in args) {
    html.push("<p>"+T(k)+"="+T(args[k])+"</p>");
}
html.push("</body></html>");
response.status(200);
response.header({"Content-Type":"text/html"});
response.write(html.join("\n"));
