http

The http library provides functions for making asynchronous web requests.

http.Get(string: url, table: headers, function: callback)

Performs an asynchronous HTTP GET request.

• url: The URL to send the request to.

• headers: A table of request headers (e.g., {["Content-Type"] = "application/json"}).

• callback: A function to be called with the response body (as a string) when the request is complete.

local headers = {
    ["Accept"] = "*/*",
    ["User-Agent"] = "MySuperSecureClient/1.0"
}

http.Get("https://api.example.com/data", headers, function(response)
    if response then
        print("Received data:", response)
    else
        print("The request failed.")
    end
end)

http.Post(string: url, table: headers, string: body, function: callback)

Performs an asynchronous HTTP POST request.

• url: The URL to send the request to.

• headers: A table of request headers.

• body: The string data to send in the request body.

• callback: A function to be called with the response body (as a string) when the request is complete.

local headers = {
    ["Content-Type"] = "application/json"
}
local json_body = '{"username": "MyUser", "score": 100}'

http.Post("https://api.example.com/submit", headers, json_body, function(response)
    if response then
        print("Server responded:", response)
    else
        print("The POST request failed.")
    end
end)
