juce_linux_Network.cpp

Linux
#1

i’ve coded one platform specific file, the one that makes the URL class working. actually i’ve introduced a http URL GET based on sockets,
with redirects and proxy support. actually the only thing that isn’t supported is the chunking Transfer-Encoding, but this will soon follows.
hey jules, give it an eye, and feel free to take something for the new juce release !

UPDATED:

  • now supports http proxies with no authentication

Hey, thanks for that, kraken. I’d actually forgotten all about needing to implement that stuff on linux! I’ll take a look as soon as I get a chance.

#3

yes i needed that URL worked in linux also: actually is not complete (lots of sites have chunked encoding and that possibility is not handled in my code, also there is no check for environment variable http_proxy but i’m writing them out as speaking) but for basic sites is working good enough.
i think i should have used juce::Socket instead of the standard sys/socket.h plain C library. but again this shouldn’t matter too much…

#4

What is wrong with using urllib as the backend?
Or just opening the address as a file, which, in any non-windows system I use, will cause it to fetch the webpage/file…

#5

mmh, surely i and jules don’t want to add urllib or any other libraries that are not in anyone linux distro by default. at least not in mine…
just a call to fopen would do it ? it handles redirects ? it handle chunked encoding ? it posts data instead of get also ?
can you show me the right way to do it with file ?

gr8 to know that something can be done in a simpler way. i’ll try it.

#6

I’m used to just doing pure socket read/writes, so open a socket (which is handled as file in most things non-windows), write the full http header to retrieve what you want (so it can be get, post, whatever), and read back. Gets a little more complicated if you want it async, but still simple enough.

#7

actually, i’m just doing this…

#8

edit!
