NAME

Plack::HTTPParser - Parse HTTP headers

SYNOPSIS

  use Plack::HTTPParser qw(parse_http_request);

  my $ret = parse_http_request($header_str, \%env);
  # see HTTP::Parser::XS docs

DESCRIPTION

Plack::HTTPParser is a wrapper class to dispatch parse_http_request to Kazuho Oku's XS based HTTP::Parser::XS or pure perl fallback based on David Robins HTTP::Parser.

If you want to force the use of the slower pure perl version even if the fast XS version is available, set the environment variable PLACK_HTTP_PARSER_PP to 1.
