markdown is used instead

Attach built-in HTTP event handler to the given connection. User-defined event handler will receive following extra events:

  • MG_EV_HTTP_REQUEST: HTTP request has arrived. Parsed HTTP request is passed as struct http_message through the handler's void *ev_data pointer.
  • MG_EV_HTTP_MULTIPART_REQUEST: A multipart POST request has received. This event is sent before body is parsed. After this user should expect a sequence of MG_EV_HTTP_PART_BEGIN/DATA/END requests. This is also the last time when headers and other request fields are accessible.
  • MG_EV_HTTP_REPLY: HTTP reply has arrived. Parsed HTTP reply is passed as struct http_message through the handler's void *ev_data pointer.
  • MG_EV_HTTP_CHUNK: HTTP chunked-encoding chunk has arrived. Parsed HTTP reply is passed as struct http_message through the handler's void *ev_data pointer. http_message::body would contain incomplete, reassembled HTTP body. It will grow with every new chunk arrived, and potentially can consume a lot of memory. An event handler may process the body as chunks are coming, and signal Mongoose to delete processed body by setting MG_F_DELETE_CHUNK in mg_connection::flags. When the last zero chunk is received, Mongoose sends MG_EV_HTTP_REPLY event with full reassembled body (if handler did not signal to delete chunks) or with empty body (if handler did signal to delete chunks).
  • MG_EV_WEBSOCKET_HANDSHAKE_REQUEST: server has received websocket handshake request. ev_data contains parsed HTTP request.
  • MG_EV_WEBSOCKET_HANDSHAKE_DONE: server has completed Websocket handshake. ev_data is NULL.
  • MG_EV_WEBSOCKET_FRAME: new websocket frame has arrived. ev_data is struct websocket_message *
  • MG_EV_HTTP_PART_BEGIN: new part of multipart message is started, extra parameters are passed in mg_http_multipart_part
  • MG_EV_HTTP_PART_DATA: new portion of data from multiparted message no additional headers are available, only data and data size
  • MG_EV_HTTP_PART_END: final boundary received, analogue to maybe used to find the end of packet Note: Mongoose should be compiled with MG_ENABLE_HTTP_STREAMING_MULTIPART to enable MG_EV_HTTP_MULTIPART_REQUEST, MG_EV_HTTP_REQUEST_END, MG_EV_HTTP_REQUEST_CANCEL, MG_EV_HTTP_PART_BEGIN, MG_EV_HTTP_PART_DATA, MG_EV_HTTP_PART_END constants
