Crate use_method 

use-method

Small HTTP method utilities for RustUse.

Experimental

use-method is experimental while the use-web workspace remains below 0.3.0. Expect small API adjustments during the first release wave.

Example

use use_method::{is_safe_method, parse_method};

assert!(is_safe_method("GET"));
assert_eq!(parse_method("patch"), Some(use_method::HttpMethod::Patch));

Scope

• Lightweight method parsing and normalization.
• Small helpers for HTTP semantics such as safety and idempotency.
• Graceful handling for unknown but valid method tokens.

Non-goals

• Routing.
• Middleware.
• Request execution.
• Policy engines.
