- .SH "DESCRIPTION"
- .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR initiates an \s-1HTTP\s0 session using the \fIbio\fR argument if not
- \&\s-1NULL,\s0 else by connecting to a given \fIserver\fR optionally via a \fIproxy\fR.
- .PP
- Typically the OpenSSL build supports sockets and the \fIbio\fR parameter is \s-1NULL.\s0
- In this case \fIrbio\fR must be \s-1NULL\s0 as well and the \fIserver\fR must be non-NULL.
- The function creates a network \s-1BIO\s0 internally using \fBBIO_new_connect\fR\|(3)
- for connecting to the given server and the optionally given \fIport\fR,
- defaulting to 80 for \s-1HTTP\s0 or 443 for \s-1HTTPS.\s0
- Then this internal \s-1BIO\s0 is used for setting up a connection
- and for exchanging one or more request and response.
- If \fIbio\fR is given and \fIrbio\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 then this \fIbio\fR is used instead.
- If both \fIbio\fR and \fIrbio\fR are given (which may be memory BIOs for instance)
- then no explicit connection is set up, but
- \&\fIbio\fR is used for writing requests and \fIrbio\fR for reading responses.
- As soon as the client has flushed \fIbio\fR the server must be ready to provide
- a response or indicate a waiting condition via \fIrbio\fR.
- .PP
- If \fIbio\fR is given, it is an error to provide \fIproxy\fR or \fIno_proxy\fR arguments,
- while \fIserver\fR and \fIport\fR arguments may be given to support diagnostic output.
- If \fIbio\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 the optional \fIproxy\fR parameter can be used to set an
- \&\s-1HTTP\s0(S) proxy to use (unless overridden by \*(L"no_proxy\*(R" settings).
- If \s-1TLS\s0 is not used this defaults to the environment variable \f(CW\*(C`http_proxy\*(C'\fR
- if set, else \f(CW\*(C`HTTP_PROXY\*(C'\fR.
- If \fIuse_ssl\fR != 0 it defaults to \f(CW\*(C`https_proxy\*(C'\fR if set, else \f(CW\*(C`HTTPS_PROXY\*(C'\fR.
- An empty proxy string \f(CW""\fR forbids using a proxy.
- Else the format is
- \&\f(CW\*(C`[http[s]://][userinfo@]host[:port][/path][?query][#fragment]\*(C'\fR,
- where any userinfo, path, query, and fragment given is ignored.
- The default proxy port number is 80, or 443 in case \*(L"https:\*(R" is given.
- The \s-1HTTP\s0 client functions connect via the given proxy unless the \fIserver\fR
- is found in the optional list \fIno_proxy\fR of proxy hostnames (if not \s-1NULL\s0;
- default is the environment variable \f(CW\*(C`no_proxy\*(C'\fR if set, else \f(CW\*(C`NO_PROXY\*(C'\fR).
- Proxying plain \s-1HTTP\s0 is supported directly,
- while using a proxy for \s-1HTTPS\s0 connections requires a suitable callback function
- such as \fBOSSL_HTTP_proxy_connect()\fR, described below.
- .PP
- If \fIuse_ssl\fR is nonzero a \s-1TLS\s0 connection is requested
- and the \fIbio_update_fn\fR parameter must be provided.
- .PP
- The parameter \fIbio_update_fn\fR, which is optional if \fIuse_ssl\fR is 0,
- may be used to modify the connection \s-1BIO\s0 used by the \s-1HTTP\s0 client,
- but cannot be used when both \fIbio\fR and \fIrbio\fR are given.
- \&\fIbio_update_fn\fR is a \s-1BIO\s0 connect/disconnect callback function with prototype
- .PP
- .Vb 1
- \& BIO *(*OSSL_HTTP_bio_cb_t)(BIO *bio, void *arg, int connect, int detail)
- .Ve
- .PP
- The callback function may modify the \s-1BIO\s0 provided in the \fIbio\fR argument,
- whereby it may use an optional custom defined argument \fIarg\fR,
- which can for instance point to an \fB\s-1SSL_CTX\s0\fR structure.
- During connection establishment, just after calling \fBBIO_do_connect_retry()\fR, the
- callback function is invoked with the \fIconnect\fR argument being 1 and
- \&\fIdetail\fR being 1 if \fIuse_ssl\fR is nonzero (i.e., \s-1HTTPS\s0 is requested), else 0.
- On disconnect \fIconnect\fR is 0 and \fIdetail\fR is 1 if no error occurred, else 0.
- For instance, on connect the callback may push an \s-1SSL BIO\s0 to implement \s-1HTTPS\s0;
- after disconnect it may do some diagnostic output and pop and free the \s-1SSL BIO.\s0
- .PP
- The callback function must return either the potentially modified \s-1BIO\s0 \fIbio\fR
- or \s-1NULL\s0 to indicate failure, in which case it should not modify the \s-1BIO.\s0
- .PP
- Here is a simple example that supports \s-1TLS\s0 connections (but not via a proxy):
- .PP
- .Vb 5
- \& BIO *http_tls_cb(BIO *bio, void *arg, int connect, int detail)
- \& {
- \& if (connect && detail) { /* connecting with TLS */
- \& SSL_CTX *ctx = (SSL_CTX *)arg;
- \& BIO *sbio = BIO_new_ssl(ctx, 1);
- \&
- \& bio = sbio != NULL ? BIO_push(sbio, bio) : NULL;
- \& } else if (!connect) { /* disconnecting */
- \& BIO *hbio;
- \&
- \& if (!detail) { /* an error has occurred */
- \& /* optionally add diagnostics here */
- \& }
- \& BIO_ssl_shutdown(bio);
- \& hbio = BIO_pop(bio);
- \& BIO_free(bio); /* SSL BIO */
- \& bio = hbio;
- \& }
- \& return bio;
- \& }
- .Ve
- .PP
- After disconnect the modified \s-1BIO\s0 will be deallocated using \fBBIO_free_all()\fR.
- The optional callback function argument \fIarg\fR is not consumed,
- so must be freed by the caller when not needed any more.
- .PP
- The \fIbuf_size\fR parameter specifies the response header maximum line length.
- A value <= 0 means that the \fB\s-1OSSL_HTTP_DEFAULT_MAX_LINE_LEN\s0\fR (4KiB) is used.
- \&\fIbuf_size\fR is also used as the number of content bytes that are read at a time.
- .PP
- If the \fIoverall_timeout\fR parameter is > 0 this indicates the maximum number of
- seconds the overall \s-1HTTP\s0 transfer (i.e., connection setup if needed,
- sending requests, and receiving responses) is allowed to take until completion.
- A value <= 0 enables waiting indefinitely, i.e., no timeout.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_proxy_connect()\fR may be used by an above \s-1BIO\s0 connect callback function
- to set up an \s-1SSL/TLS\s0 connection via an \s-1HTTPS\s0 proxy.
- It promotes the given \s-1BIO\s0 \fIbio\fR representing a connection
- pre-established with a \s-1TLS\s0 proxy using the \s-1HTTP CONNECT\s0 method,
- optionally using proxy client credentials \fIproxyuser\fR and \fIproxypass\fR,
- to connect with \s-1TLS\s0 protection ultimately to \fIserver\fR and \fIport\fR.
- If the \fIport\fR argument is \s-1NULL\s0 or the empty string it defaults to \*(L"443\*(R".
- If the \fItimeout\fR parameter is > 0 this indicates the maximum number of
- seconds the connection setup is allowed to take.
- A value <= 0 enables waiting indefinitely, i.e., no timeout.
- Since this function is typically called by applications such as
- \&\fBopenssl\-s_client\fR\|(1) it uses the \fIbio_err\fR and \fIprog\fR parameters (unless
- \&\s-1NULL\s0) to print additional diagnostic information in a user-oriented way.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_set1_request()\fR sets up in \fIrctx\fR the request header and content data
- and expectations on the response using the following parameters.
- If <rctx> indicates using a proxy for \s-1HTTP\s0 (but not \s-1HTTPS\s0), the server host
- (and optionally port) needs to be placed in the header; thus it must be present
- in \fIrctx\fR.
- For backward compatibility, the server (and optional port) may also be given in
- the \fIpath\fR argument beginning with \f(CW\*(C`http://\*(C'\fR (thus giving an absoluteURI).
- If \fIpath\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 it defaults to \*(L"/\*(R".
- If \fIreq\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 the \s-1HTTP GET\s0 method will be used to send the request
- else \s-1HTTP POST\s0 with the contents of \fIreq\fR and optional \fIcontent_type\fR, where
- the length of the data in \fIreq\fR does not need to be determined in advance: the
- \&\s-1BIO\s0 will be read on-the-fly while sending the request, which supports streaming.
- The optional list \fIheaders\fR may contain additional custom \s-1HTTP\s0 header lines.
- .PP
- If the \fIexpected_content_type\fR argument is not \s-1NULL,\s0
- the client will check that the specified content-type string
- is included in the \s-1HTTP\s0 header of the response and return an error if not.
- In the content-type header line the specified string should be present either
- as a whole, or in case the specified string does not include a \f(CW\*(C`;\*(C'\fR character,
- it is sufficient that the specified string appears as a prefix
- in the header line, followed by a \f(CW\*(C`;\*(C'\fR character and any further text.
- For instance, if \fIexpected_content_type\fR specifies \f(CW\*(C`text/html\*(C'\fR,
- this is matched by \f(CW\*(C`text/html\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`text/html; charset=UTF\-8\*(C'\fR, etc.
- .PP
- If the \fIexpect_asn1\fR parameter is nonzero,
- a structure in \s-1ASN.1\s0 encoding will be expected as response content.
- The \fImax_resp_len\fR parameter specifies the maximum allowed
- response content length, where the value 0 indicates no limit.
- If the \fItimeout\fR parameter is > 0 this indicates the maximum number of seconds
- the subsequent \s-1HTTP\s0 transfer (sending the request and receiving a response)
- is allowed to take.
- A value of 0 enables waiting indefinitely, i.e., no timeout.
- A value < 0 indicates that the \fIoverall_timeout\fR parameter value given
- when opening the \s-1HTTP\s0 transfer will be used instead.
- If \fIkeep_alive\fR is 0 the connection is not kept open
- after receiving a response, which is the default behavior for \s-1HTTP 1.0.\s0
- If the value is 1 or 2 then a persistent connection is requested.
- If the value is 2 then a persistent connection is required,
- i.e., an error occurs in case the server does not grant it.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_exchange()\fR exchanges any form of \s-1HTTP\s0 request and response
- as specified by \fIrctx\fR, which must include both connection and request data,
- typically set up using \fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR and \fBOSSL_HTTP_set1_request()\fR.
- It implements the core of the functions described below.
- If the \s-1HTTP\s0 method is \s-1GET\s0 and \fIredirection_url\fR
- is not \s-1NULL\s0 the latter pointer is used to provide any new location that
- the server may return with \s-1HTTP\s0 code 301 (\s-1MOVED_PERMANENTLY\s0) or 302 (\s-1FOUND\s0).
- In this case the function returns \s-1NULL\s0 and the caller is
- responsible for deallocating the \s-1URL\s0 with \fBOPENSSL_free\fR\|(3).
- If the response header contains one or more \*(L"Content-Length\*(R" header lines and/or
- an \s-1ASN\s0.1\-encoded response is expected, which should include a total length,
- the length indications received are checked for consistency
- and for not exceeding any given maximum response length.
- If an \s-1ASN\s0.1\-encoded response is expected, the function returns on success
- the contents buffered in a memory \s-1BIO,\s0 which does not support streaming.
- Otherwise it returns directly the read \s-1BIO\s0 that holds the response contents,
- which allows a response of indefinite length and may support streaming.
- The caller is responsible for freeing the \s-1BIO\s0 pointer obtained.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_get()\fR uses \s-1HTTP GET\s0 to obtain data from \fIbio\fR if non-NULL,
- else from the server contained in the \fIurl\fR, and returns it as a \s-1BIO.\s0
- It supports redirection via \s-1HTTP\s0 status code 301 or 302. It is meant for
- transfers with a single round trip, so does not support persistent connections.
- If \fIbio\fR is non-NULL, any host and port components in the \fIurl\fR are not used
- for connecting but the hostname is used, as usual, for the \f(CW\*(C`Host\*(C'\fR header.
- Any userinfo and fragment components in the \fIurl\fR are ignored.
- Any query component is handled as part of the path component.
- If the scheme component of the \fIurl\fR is \f(CW\*(C`https\*(C'\fR a \s-1TLS\s0 connection is requested
- and the \fIbio_update_fn\fR, as described for \fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR, must be provided.
- Also the remaining parameters are interpreted as described for \fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR
- and \fBOSSL_HTTP_set1_request()\fR, respectively.
- The caller is responsible for freeing the \s-1BIO\s0 pointer obtained.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_transfer()\fR exchanges an \s-1HTTP\s0 request and response
- over a connection managed via \fIprctx\fR without supporting redirection.
- It combines \fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR, \fBOSSL_HTTP_set1_request()\fR, \fBOSSL_HTTP_exchange()\fR,
- and \fBOSSL_HTTP_close()\fR.
- If \fIprctx\fR is not \s-1NULL\s0 it reuses any open connection represented by a non-NULL
- \&\fI*prctx\fR. It keeps the connection open if a persistent connection is requested
- or required and this was granted by the server, else it closes the connection
- and assigns \s-1NULL\s0 to \fI*prctx\fR.
- The remaining parameters are interpreted as described for \fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR
- and \fBOSSL_HTTP_set1_request()\fR, respectively.
- The caller is responsible for freeing the \s-1BIO\s0 pointer obtained.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_close()\fR closes the connection and releases \fIrctx\fR.
- The \fIok\fR parameter is passed to any \s-1BIO\s0 update function
- given during setup as described above for \fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR.
- It must be 1 if no error occurred during the \s-1HTTP\s0 transfer and 0 otherwise.
- .SH "NOTES"
- .IX Header "NOTES"
- The names of the environment variables used by this implementation:
- \&\f(CW\*(C`http_proxy\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`HTTP_PROXY\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`https_proxy\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`HTTPS_PROXY\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`no_proxy\*(C'\fR, and
- \&\f(CW\*(C`NO_PROXY\*(C'\fR, have been chosen for maximal compatibility with
- other \s-1HTTP\s0 client implementations such as wget, curl, and git.
- .PP
- When built with tracing enabled, \fBOSSL_HTTP_transfer()\fR and all functions using it
- may be traced using \fB\s-1OSSL_TRACE_CATEGORY_HTTP\s0\fR.
- See also \fBOSSL_trace_enabled\fR\|(3) and \*(L"\s-1ENVIRONMENT\*(R"\s0 in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1).
- .SH "RETURN VALUES"
- .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_open()\fR returns on success a \fB\s-1OSSL_HTTP_REQ_CTX\s0\fR, else \s-1NULL.\s0
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_proxy_connect()\fR and \fBOSSL_HTTP_set1_request()\fR
- return 1 on success, 0 on error.
- .PP
- On success, \fBOSSL_HTTP_exchange()\fR, \fBOSSL_HTTP_get()\fR, and \fBOSSL_HTTP_transfer()\fR
- return a memory \s-1BIO\s0 that buffers all the data received if an \s-1ASN\s0.1\-encoded
- response is expected, otherwise a \s-1BIO\s0 that may support streaming.
- The \s-1BIO\s0 must be freed by the caller.
- On failure, they return \s-1NULL.\s0
- Failure conditions include connection/transfer timeout, parse errors, etc.
- The caller is responsible for freeing the \s-1BIO\s0 pointer obtained.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_HTTP_close()\fR returns 0 if anything went wrong while disconnecting, else 1.
