Stability

All APIs in this module are stable and follow semantic versioning:

• New features in minor version updates
• Bug fixes in patch version updates

Usage

#include <kcenon/network/http/http_client.h>
#include <kcenon/network/http/websocket_server.h>
 
using namespace kcenon::network::http;
 
// HTTP Client
auto client = http_client::create(http_client_config{});
auto response = client->get("https://api.example.com/data");
 
// WebSocket Server
auto server = messaging_ws_server::create(ws_server_config{
    .port = 8080
});
server->start();

Migration from core/

If you were previously using includes from kcenon/network/core/:

Old Path	New Path
core/http_client.h	http/http_client.h
core/http_server.h	http/http_server.h
core/messaging_ws_client.h	http/websocket_client.h
core/messaging_ws_server.h	http/websocket_server.h

The old paths still work but will emit deprecation warnings.

Namespace

All types are in kcenon::network::http namespace:

namespace kcenon::network::http {
    class http_client;
    class http_server;
    class messaging_ws_client;
    class messaging_ws_server;
    // ... etc
}
