UNETWORK

Introduction

unetwork is a networking library for Common Lisp. Its goal is to provide a simple, easy to use interface to various functionalities and protocols:

• TCP and UDP sockets
• name resolution
• HTTP, FTP, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, NNTP, IRC
• and more...

unetwork is distributed under the terms of the Lisp Lesser General Public License ( LLGPL).

Current status

So far, only CMUCL and SBCL are supported. Platform specific code being relatively short, we expect other implementations to be supported soon.

Protocol support:

• HTTP (GET and HEAD requests only)
• POP3
• SMTP
• NNTP (no posting)

URL-streams: for relevant protocols (only HTTP so far).

(with-uri-input-stream (stream "http://www.common-lisp.net")
  (loop as line = (read-line stream nil nil)
        until (null line)
        do (format t "Line: ~A~%" line)))
    

Questions and comments are welcome (and expected).
