Consuming HTTP endpoint using Common Lisp
3 projects | dev.to | 17 Oct 2022

We will reuse connection between http requests to save time on SSL handshake and overall load of target server. We are talking to some Tomcat server that has setup of 120 seconds for keep-alive. This means that we should take care of that and properly close and re-open connection when keep-alive expires. After some experiments, we defined base minimum function that wraps drakma calls.

If it uses Drakma, it won't work with https on Windows.

HTTP over unix sockets in Common Lisp

FYI, I have used Dexador instead of Drakma to send HTTP requests by using the same stream object. The API of Dexador is pretty much similar to Drakma. And to parse the JSON response I use yason and returning the output as an Alist (association list).
woo or dexador?
2 projects | /r/lisp | 11 Dec 2021

New to lisp. Can you give me just the brief difference between Woo and Dexador? Pros and cons? Which one would be faster? Or more resource efficient?
