http_status_reply

[Stephen Coda]

Does anyone have an example using http_status_reply at all?

I have a handler that looks something like this:

notfound(Request):-

current_output(Stream),

http_status_reply(not_found('http://127.0.0.1:8000/SomeBadUrl'),Stream,_A,_B).

But I get a lot of different errors depending on what I try and the documentation is incomplete. Is anyone using it?

Thanks for your time.

The entire library(http_header) says: "The library
library(http/http_header) provides primitives for parsing and composing
HTTP headers. Its functionality is normally hidden by the other parts of
the HTTP server and client libraries."

In this case, you simply do http_404([], Request). You can access all the
codes from http_status_reply using

throw(http_reply(Term))

E.g., (you typically only pass the path):

throw(http_reply(not_found('SomeBadUrl')))

I do agree this needs better documentation :-(

Ahh okay thanks! 

My fault as I didn't understand the proper use.

The documentation is mostly excellent btw. :)
