http

HTTP calls, off the frame: the reply arrives on a later tick as a map with status, headers and body, or with error, both to the node's on_response method and to whoever awaits the returned id. Options are method, headers, body and a timeout in seconds, which falls back to the project's [net] http_timeout.

1 function, 0 constants. Scripts reach it as http::.

Functions

Argument kinds are the script values a call passes: node is a node handle, any a table or value of any kind, fn a callback.

function	acts on	what it does
request(any, any?, any?) -> any	—	Start an HTTP request and return the id its reply carries, to await or to match inside the handler.
