API Documentation: SMODS.https

The SMODS.https module is a module designed to be compatible with the lua-https module. The main difference between this and the built in https module is that SMODS.https works on more platforms out of the box, compared to Balatro's shipped https modules (which is only availible on Windows by default).

Usage

To use this module you must first require it, like so:

local https = require "SMODS.https"

API Methods

• https.request(url, options) -> code, body, headers

  • url: The URL to request.
  • options: Additional optional options for the request.
    • headers: Additional headers to add to the request as key-value pairs.
    • method (One of "GET"|"POST"|"HEAD"|"PUT"|"DELETE"|"PATCH"): HTTP method. If absent, it's either "GET" or "POST" depending on the data field.
    • data: Optional additional data to send as application/x-www-form-urlencoded (unless specified otherwise in Content-Type header).
    • Return values:
      • code: HTTP status code, or 0 on failure.
      • body: The response body on success. Either nil or a description of the error on failure.
      • headers: HTTP response headers as key-value pairs, or nil on failure.

• https.asyncRequest(url, optionsOrCallback, callback)

  • url: The URL to request.
  • optionsOrCallback: If callback is nil, this can be set to a function instead of the callback. Otherwise is treated like option (see http.request)
  • callback: A function to call when the request is done, or nil if the callback is set in optionsOrCallback.
    • callback(code, body, headers) - The callback to call. For meanings on the values, see http.request's return values

Example Usage

local https = require "SMODS.https"

print(https.request("https://example.com")) -- Sync request

https.asyncRequest("https://example.com", print)) -- Async request
