.request(method, host, path = "/", headers = {}) ⇒ Object

:call-seq: Builder.request(method, host, path=“/”, headers={}) -> string

Returns a HTTP request line and headers.

Builder.request(:get, "example.com")
#=> "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: example.com\r\n\r\n"

def request(method, host, path="/", headers={})
  "#{method.to_s.upcase} #{path} HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: #{host}\r\n#{
    format_headers(headers)}\r\n"
end

.response(code, headers = {}) ⇒ Object

:call-seq: Builder.response(status, headers={}) -> string

Returns a HTTP status line and headers. Status can be a HTTP status code as an integer, or a HTTP status message as a lowercase, underscored symbol.

Builder.response(200, "Content-Type" => "text/html")
#=> "HTTP/1.1 200 ok\r\nContent-Type: text/html\r\n\r\n"

Builder.response(:internal_server_error)
#=> "HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error\r\n\r\n"

To send multiple headers with the same name:

Builder.response(:ok, "Set-Cookie" => ["a=b", "c=d"])
Builder.response(:ok, "Set-Cookie" => "a=b\nc=d")
