High-Performance Erlang HTTP 1.1 Client
[](https://travis-ci.org/lpgauth/buoy.svg?branch=dev)
[](https://coveralls.io/github/lpgauth/buoy?branch=dev)
## Disclaimer:
This HTTP client has been designed for HTTP 1.1 with keep-alive. For performance reasons, it only implements a subset of RFC2616.
### Unsupported Features:
- Doesn't accept an arbitrary number of new lines in headers
- Doesn't accept random capitalization of content-length header
- Doesn't protect against malicious servers
- Doesn't support chunked encoding
