http.transport

HTTP transport helpers for the webapp request handler.

These utilities centralize UTF-8 response writing and JSON body parsing so the request handler can focus on route dispatch and endpoint behavior.

Functions

send_text(handler, content, *[, status, content_type])	Write a UTF-8 text response through a BaseHTTPRequestHandler-like object.
send_bytes(handler, payload, *[, status, content_type])	Write raw binary data through a BaseHTTPRequestHandler-like object.
send_json(handler, payload, *[, status])	Serialize and write a JSON object response.
read_json_body(handler)	Read and validate a JSON object request body from the handler stream.
