http-kit

A flexible and ergonomic HTTP toolkit for Rust that provides high-level abstractions for HTTP operations while maintaining performance and type safety.

Features

• Type-safe HTTP primitives - Request, Response, Headers, and Body types with strong type checking
• Streaming support - Efficient handling of large payloads through streaming interfaces
• Body transformations - Convert between different body formats (JSON, form data, files) with zero-copy when possible
• Middleware system - Extensible middleware architecture for request/response processing
• Async/await ready - Built on top of futures-lite for async I/O operations

Optional Features

• json - JSON serialization/deserialization via serde_json
• form - Form data handling via serde_urlencoded
• fs - File upload support with MIME type detection
• mime - MIME type parsing and manipulation
• http_body - Implementation of http_body traits

Example

use http_kit::{Request, Response, Result};

async fn handler(mut req: Request) -> Result<Response> {
    // Parse JSON request body
    let user = req.into_json().await?;

    // Create JSON response
    Response::empty()
        .status(200)
        .json(&user)
}
