Data.ByteString.Builder.HTTP.Chunked

HTTP/1.1 chunked transfer encoding as defined in RFC 7230 Section 4.1

Documentation

chunkedTransferEncoding :: Builder -> Builder

Transform a builder such that it uses chunked HTTP transfer encoding.

>>> :set -XOverloadedStrings
>>> import Data.ByteString.Builder as B
>>> let f = B.toLazyByteString . chunkedTransferEncoding . B.lazyByteString
>>> f "data"
"004\r\ndata\r\n"

>>> f ""
""

Note: While for many inputs, the bytestring chunks that can be obtained from the output via toChunks . toLazyByteString each form a chunk in the sense of RFC 7230 Section 4.1, this correspondence doesn't hold in general.

chunkedTransferTerminator :: Builder

The zero-length chunk 0\r\n\r\n signalling the termination of the data transfer.
