Module connection 

HTTP Connection header handling.

This module provides proper parsing and handling of the HTTP Connection header per RFC 7230, including:

• Parsing comma-separated connection tokens
• Handling close, keep-alive, and upgrade directives
• Extracting hop-by-hop header names for stripping
• HTTP version-aware default behavior

Connection Header Semantics

The Connection header is a comma-separated list of tokens. Each token is either:

• A connection option (close, keep-alive, upgrade)
• The name of a hop-by-hop header field to be stripped when forwarding

Example

use fastapi_http::connection::{ConnectionInfo, parse_connection_header};

let info = parse_connection_header(Some(b"keep-alive, X-Custom-Header"));
assert!(info.keep_alive);
assert!(info.hop_by_hop_headers.contains(&"x-custom-header".to_string()));

Structs

ConnectionInfo

Parsed Connection header information.

Constants

STANDARD_HOP_BY_HOP_HEADERS

Standard hop-by-hop headers that should always be stripped when forwarding.
