gd-rpc-threaded

Threaded Web requests in GDScript for Godot game engine.

Installation

rpc-threaded and rpcresponse are GDScripts, so all you need is to drop them into your Godot project's resource directory. rpc-threaded inherits from Node and is to be added to your node-tree, rpcresponse is a standalone class inherits from built-in type.

Use

rpc

var RPC = preload("rpc.gd")
var www

func _init():
    www = RPC.new() # use "localhost", on port 80
    # or for "http://myhost.example:1234":
    www = RPC.new("myhost.example", 1234)

func _ready():
    add_child(www)  # NOTE: It's important to add rpc as a node to your tree

By default, the www object has a user-agent header set. You may set your own headers. This is done separate from any actual request.

# remove user agent
www.resetHeaders()

# set one header
www.setHeader("Authorization", authToken)

# set many headers
www.setHeaders({
    "Accept": "*",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
})

With host, port, and headers configured, make your HTTP request.

r = www.get("/users")
r = www.post("/ratings/" + id, '{"rating":4,"review":"ok"}')
r = www.delete("/reviews/12")

rpcresponse

Every request (using get, post, put, delete) returns a RpcResponse object, a data container with the response's HTTP Status code, body, and headers. Check for errors before assuming all went well;

response = www.get("/something")
if( response.isError() ):
    handleError( response.getResponseCode() )
else:
    handleSuccess( response.getBody() )

#TODO

• Optional form encoding for http-post
• Optional url encoding for http-get param dictionaries
• SSL support
• support for binaries and bigger files (chunked get/post)
• handle Redirects
