I'm on the search for a new programming language to learn, so I thought I'd check out Racket, but I'm having a hard time trying to do a very common task that would make Racket practical for my use at work:
- Make a series of HTTP requests to an API that returns JSON responses - Reuse the HTTP connection to avoid creating new TCP connections for each request - Honors the `http_proxy`, `https_proxy`, and `no_proxy` environment variables - Maintains a "session" where cookies set by the server are sent back in subsequent requests My daily driver is Python, so I'm used to its `requests` library. Go and Rust have similar libraries. While I don't mind piecing some of this together, I'm struggling as a new user to figure out what libraries are recommended and, more importantly, how to put them together to accomplish the above points. Thank you. p.s. The Racket documentation is by far the best looking documentation I've read in any language. It's quite amazing! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
