An HTTP wrapper for FiveM

FiveM Lua HTTP Wrapper

This is just something I created for personal use, but publishing since it seems to be so nifty.

This wrapper makes it very easy to create endpoints for you FiveM server. This only supports GET and POST requests for the time being.

For post requests, it will assume the body to be json and decode it to be available in req.body

There are some thing that could be made easier and will be in time!

Usage

require HTTP.lua in the fxmanifest.lua, i.e.

server_scripts {
    '@http-wrapper/HTTP.lua'
}

Example

curl -X POST http://localhost:30120/test-resource/

Should return

Hey, you sent a post request!

--- in resource [test-resource]
HTTP.Router:POST("/", function(req, res)
    res.send("Hey, you sent a post request!")
end)

curl -X POST http://localhost:30120/test-resource/myendpoint

Should return

{
    "message": "Hello there!"
}

--- in resource [test-resource]
HTTP.Router:POST('/myendpoint', function(req, res)
    local data = json.encode({
        message = "Hello there!"
    })
    HTTP.Headers:Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
    HTTP.Headers:Status(200)
    res.writeHead(HTTP._Status, HTTP.Headers:All())
    res.send(data)
end)
