sigil-http

HTTP/1.1 client and server library for Sigil.

Provides HTTP/1.1 support for building web applications and APIs. Primary use cases are serving documentation sites and game server APIs.

This package was extracted from the sigil monorepo — the in-tree history under packages/sigil-http/ is preserved here as master.

Usage

(import (sigil http))

;; Client — GET / POST / PUT / DELETE
(let ((response (http-get "https://example.com/")))
  (display (http-response-body response)))

(http-post "https://api.example.com/users"
           "{\"name\":\"Alice\"}"
           '(("Content-Type" . "application/json")))

;; Server
(http-serve
  port: 8080
  handler: (lambda (request)
             (http-response 200 '(("Content-Type" . "text/plain"))
                            "Hello, world!")))

See docs/http.md for the full API reference, including streaming bodies, Server-Sent Events, and low-level request/response manipulation.

Dependencies

• sigil-stdlib, sigil-socket, sigil-tls — pinned via from-git against the sigil monorepo (^0.13.1). Resolved automatically by sigil deps install.

Build

sigil deps install
sigil build
sigil test

Development against a local sigil checkout

dev-redirects.sgl redirects codeberg:sigil/sigil to ../sigil. Pass it to the build CLI when you need to test against unreleased monorepo changes:

sigil build --redirects dev-redirects.sgl

Otherwise, let sigil deps install pull the pinned monorepo tag.
