- Web browsers: Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari and so on.
Starting from version 0.3.4, bhttp-js is available from the
JSR registry. From this version onwards, please use JSR import
instead of HTTPS import in Deno.
JSR imoprt (recommended on >=0.3.4):
Add bhttp-js package using the commands below:
deno add @dajiaji/bhttpThen, you can use the module from code like this:
import { BHttpDecoder, BHttpEncoder } from "@dajiaji/bhttp";Using npm, yarn or pnpm:
npm install bhttp-js
yarn add bhttp-js
pnpm install bhttp-jsUsing jsr:
npx jsr add @dajiaji/bhttp
yarn dlx jsr add @dajiaji/bhttp
pnpm dlx jsr add @dajiaji/bhttpUsing jsr:
npx jsr add @dajiaji/bhttp
yarn dlx jsr add @dajiaji/bhttp
pnpm dlx jsr add @dajiaji/bhttpUsing jsr:
bunx jsr add @dajiaji/bhttpFollowings are how to use with typical CDNs. Other CDNs can be used as well.
Using esm.sh:
<!-- use a specific version -->
<script type="module">
import { BHttpDecoder, BhttpEncoder } from "https://esm.sh/bhttp-js@<SEMVER>";
// ...
</script>
<!-- use the latest stable version -->
<script type="module">
import { BHttpDecoder, BhttpEncoder } from "https://esm.sh/bhttp-js";
// ...
</script>Using unpkg:
<!-- use a specific version -->
<script type="module">
import {
BHttpDecoder,
BhttpEncoder,
} from "https://unpkg.com/bhttp-js@<SEMVER>/esm/mod.js";
// ...
</script>This section shows some typical usage examples.
See samples/deno.
import { BHttpDecoder, BHttpEncoder } from "@dajiaji/bhttp";
const req = new Request("https://www.example.com/hello.txt", {
method: "GET",
headers: {
"User-Agent": "curl/7.16.3 libcurl/7.16.3 OpenSSL/0.9.7l zlib/1.2.3",
"Accept-Language": "en, mi",
},
});
// Encode a Request object to a BHTTP binary string.
const encoder = new BHttpEncoder();
const binReq = await encoder.encodeRequest(req);
// Decode the BHTTP binary string to a Request object.
const decoder = new BHttpDecoder();
const decodedReq = decoder.decodeRequest(binReq);See samples/node.
