I had some time today so I wrote some docs for https://github.com/bogdanp/racket-http-easy\|http-easy: https://docs.racket-lang.org/http-easy/index.html What do you guys think?
A few thoughts: 0. It looks really great. 1. It needs a little bit of a guide at the top. 2. Could uri’s allow bytes? too? 3. Can you make get be the first entry? 4. There are of course other things that it would be nice to add, but they can come later.
More thoughts: 5. The docs should maybe mention the following issues (even if to say they aren’t handled, or are dealt with elsewhere): HTTPS, compression, cookies, proxies.
Thanks! I’ll implement all of those suggestions.
A guide section at the beginning with a few examples would be great.
Other things that I find myself wanting when building http requests: 1. managing authorization headers 2. posting json
- Setting the User-Agent (would be great to have a parameter for doing this)
