Packeteer

Packeteer is a library that can handle structurally organising protocol packets like HTTP 1.x requests and responses as well as generating, structuring, unpacking and potentially more features depending on the protocol.

Supported protocols

• HTTP/1.x
• Gemini
• FTP
• DNS

What Packeteer is not

• a TCP/UDP stream handling library
• a server
• a protocol client
• the only way to do this, probably

A note on licensing

This library changed from the LGPLv3 to MPLv2 as a result of LGPL's requirements for freedom of source on static linking which rustc does.

I've chosen to use the MPL as it is a weaker but still copyleft license that allows you to statically link.

The MPL applies retroactively to all previous versions of this library and will be used for all future versions.
