neon is an HTTP and WebDAV client library, with a C language API.
|
|
|
|
Mailing list: neon@lists.manyfish.co.uk || Web site: http://www.webdav.org/neon/
|
|
|
|
PLEASE NOTE: The neon API is subject to backwards-incompatible change
|
|
over minor releases (0.23.x -> 0.24.x) until the 1.0.0 release, but
|
|
maintains source and binary backwards compatibility through patch
|
|
releases (0.24.0 -> 0.24.7).
|
|
|
|
Current features:
|
|
|
|
- High-level interface to HTTP and WebDAV methods.
|
|
- Low-level interface to HTTP request handling, to allow implementing
|
|
new methods easily.
|
|
- Persistent connection support (HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/1.0 aware)
|
|
- Basic and digest authentication (RFC2617) (including auth-int, md5-sess)
|
|
- Proxy support (including basic/digest authentication)
|
|
- SSL/TLS support using OpenSSL (including client certificate support)
|
|
- Generic WebDAV 207 XML response handling mechanism
|
|
- XML parsing using expat or libxml (1.x or 2.x) parser
|
|
- Easy generation of error messages from 207 error responses
|
|
- Basic HTTP/1.1 methods: GET, PUT, HEAD, OPTIONS, conditional PUT
|
|
- WebDAV resource manipulation: MOVE, COPY, DELETE, MKCOL.
|
|
- WebDAV metadata support: set and remove properties (PROPPATCH), query
|
|
any set of properties (PROPFIND).
|
|
- WebDAV locking support
|
|
- Autoconf macros supplied for easily embedding neon directly inside
|
|
an application source tree.
|
|
|
|
Provides lower-level interfaces to directly implement new HTTP
|
|
methods, and higher-level interfaces so that you don't have to worry
|
|
about the lower-level stuff.
