HTTP_DETACH(3)		    libdill Library Functions		  HTTP_DETACH(3)

NAME
     http_detach - terminates HTTP protocol and returns the underlying socket

SYNOPSIS
	    #include <libdill.h>

	    int http_detach(
		int s,
		int64_t deadline);

DESCRIPTION
     WARNING:  This  is experimental functionality and the API may change in the
     future.

     HTTP is an application-level protocol described in RFC 7230.   This  imple-
     mentation handles only the request/response exchange.  Whatever comes after
     that must be handled by a different protocol.

     This  function does the terminal handshake and returns underlying socket to
     the user.	The socket is closed even in the case of error.

     s: Handle of the SUFFIX socket.

     deadline: A point in time when the operation should time out, in  millisec-
     onds.  Use the now function to get your current point in time.  0 means im-
     mediate  timeout, i.e., perform the operation if possible or return without
     blocking if not.  -1 means no deadline, i.e., the call will  block  forever
     if the operation cannot be performed.

     This  function is not available if libdill is compiled with --disable-sock-
     ets option.

RETURN VALUE
     In case of success the function returns underlying socket handle.	In  case
     of error it returns -1 and sets errno to one of the values below.

ERRORS
     * EBADF: Invalid handle.

     * ECANCELED: Current coroutine was canceled.

     * ECONNRESET: Broken connection.

     * ENOTSUP: The handle is not an HTTP protocol handle.

     * ETIMEDOUT: Deadline was reached.

EXAMPLE
	    int s = tcp_connect(&addr, -1);
	    s = http_attach(s);
	    http_sendrequest(s, "GET", "/", -1);
	    http_sendfield(s, "Host", "www.example.org", -1);
	    http_done(s, -1);
	    char reason[256];
	    http_recvstatus(s, reason, sizeof(reason), -1);
	    while(1) {
		char name[256];
		char value[256];
		int rc = http_recvfield(s, name, sizeof(name), value, sizeof(value), -1);
		if(rc == -1 && errno == EPIPE) break;
	    }
	    s = http_detach(s, -1);
	    tcp_close(s);
