Hi Haskellers,
I'm pleased to announce the release of connection. Connection is the pinnacle of
most of my network related packages, and wrap together all the libraries needed
to provide a easy and smooth experience to open client connection.
It provides very simple access to SOCKS and TLS along with normal raw client
socket.
The goal is to hide most complicated settings either completely or re-expose
them more simply, and provide safe defaults.
repository: https://github.com/vincenthz/hs-connection
hackage: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/connection
Two simple examples (more can be find in the README on github):
- opening a raw connection to www.example.com port 80:
ctx <- initConnectionContext
connectTo ctx $ ConnectionParams
{ connectionHostname = "www.example.com"
, connectionPort = fromIntegral 80
, connectionUseSecure = Nothing
, connectionUseSocks = Nothing
}
- opening a TLS connection to www.example.com port 443:
ctx <- initConnectionContext
connectTo ctx $ ConnectionParams
{ connectionHostname = "www.example.com"
, connectionPort = fromIntegral 443
, connectionUseSecure = Just def
, connectionUseSocks = Nothing
}
Enjoy, do reports bug and suggestions the usual way (on github issue tracker or
by email)
