Parsing HTTP Responses

When you make a request to a server, you get back a response which is essentially a text file in a predictable format.

Your mission is to create a class called HttpResponseParser (test-driven) that can parse these HTTP responses. Every HTTP response is setup in the same way:

• The first line contains the status code
• There is a blank line in between the list of headers and the body

Run the rspec test 'parse_response_spec.rb" in the spec directory.

Follow the error messages and inspect the individual tests to guide your development.

Goal

To create a class / method to parse HTTP responses, and parse HTTP requests.

The request object should have methods for:

• path (string)

• verb (string)

• headers (returns a hash)

• body (string)

• querystring (string)

• params (hash that includes: parsed query string, parsed body)

• version

The response object:

• status (integer)
• headers (hash)
• body (string)
• http version
