serve

Arguments

:: Int

port number to listen on

-> Handler IO

handler

-> IO ()

listen on a port and handle Requests

serveSocket

Arguments

:: Socket

socket to listen on

-> Handler IO

handler

-> IO ()

requestLoop

Arguments

:: Bool

is this an HTTPS connection

-> SockAddr

ip of the client

-> (() -> Server ProxyFast () ByteString IO ())

Server to read data (Request) from

-> (() -> Client ProxyFast () ByteString IO ())

Client to write data (Response) to

-> Handler IO

handler

-> IO ()

this is where we construct the pipe that reads from the socket, processes the request, and sends the response

httpPipe

Arguments

:: Bool

is this an HTTPS connection

-> SockAddr

-> Handler IO

-> ()

-> StateP ByteString ProxyFast () ByteString () ByteString IO b

and this is the real heart of things
