llhttp in python

pyllhttp

Python wrapper for llhttp

A simple Python wrapper around llhttp, the HTTP parser for Node.js.

from pprint import pprint

pprint({"version": llhttp.version})

This project is a toy, started to reacquaint myself with Python c-api modules. If you find it useful, let me know.

The version number tracks the version of the incorporated llhttp.
