=head1 NAME

OSSL_HTTP_adapt_proxy,
OSSL_parse_url,
OSSL_HTTP_parse_url,
OCSP_parse_url
- http utility functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/http.h>

 const char *OSSL_HTTP_adapt_proxy(const char *proxy, const char *no_proxy,
                                   const char *server, int use_ssl);

 int OSSL_parse_url(const char *url, char **pscheme, char **puser, char **phost,
                    char **pport, int *pport_num,
                    char **ppath, char **pquery, char **pfrag);
 int OSSL_HTTP_parse_url(const char *url,
                         int *pssl, char **puser, char **phost,
                         char **pport, int *pport_num,
                         char **ppath, char **pquery, char **pfrag);

The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:

 int OCSP_parse_url(const char *url, char **phost, char **pport, char **ppath,
                    int *pssl);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

OSSL_HTTP_adapt_proxy() takes an optional proxy hostname I<proxy>
and returns it transformed according to the optional I<no_proxy> parameter,
I<server>, I<use_ssl>, and the applicable environment variable, as follows.
If I<proxy> is NULL, take any default value from the C<http_proxy>
environment variable, or from C<https_proxy> if I<use_ssl> is nonzero.
If this still does not yield a proxy hostname,
take any further default value from the C<HTTP_PROXY>
environment variable, or from C<HTTPS_PROXY> if I<use_ssl> is nonzero.
If I<no_proxy> is NULL, take any default exclusion value from the C<no_proxy>
environment variable, or else from C<NO_PROXY>.
Return the determined proxy host unless the exclusion value,
which is a list of proxy hosts separated by C<,> and/or whitespace,
contains I<server>.
Otherwise return NULL.
When I<server> is a string delimited by C<[> and C<]>, which are used for IPv6
addresses, the enclosing C<[> and C<]> are stripped prior to comparison.

OSSL_parse_url() parses its input string I<url> as a URL of the form
C<[scheme://][userinfo@]host[:port][/path][?query][#fragment]> and splits it up
into scheme, userinfo, host, port, path, query, and fragment components.
The host (or server) component may be a DNS name or an IP address
where IPv6 addresses must be enclosed in square brackets C<[> and C<]>.
The port component is optional and defaults to C<0>.
If given, it must be in decimal form.  If the I<pport_num> argument is not NULL
the integer value of the port number is assigned to I<*pport_num> on success.
The path component is also optional and defaults to C</>.
Each non-NULL result pointer argument I<pscheme>, I<puser>, I<phost>, I<pport>,
I<ppath>, I<pquery>, and I<pfrag>, is assigned the respective url component.
Any IPv6 address in I<*phost> is enclosed in C<[> and C<]>.
On success, they are guaranteed to contain non-NULL string pointers, else NULL.
It is the responsibility of the caller to free them using L<OPENSSL_free(3)>.
If I<pquery> is NULL, any given query component is handled as part of the path.
A string returned via I<*ppath> is guaranteed to begin with a C</> character.
For absent scheme, userinfo, port, query, and fragment components
an empty string is provided.

OSSL_HTTP_parse_url() is a special form of OSSL_parse_url()
where the scheme, if given, must be C<http> or C<https>.
If I<pssl> is not NULL, I<*pssl> is assigned 1 in case parsing was successful
and the scheme is C<https>, else 0.
The port component is optional and defaults to C<443> if the scheme is C<https>,
else C<80>.
Note that relative paths must be given with a leading C</>,
otherwise the first path element is interpreted as the host.

Calling the deprecated function OCSP_parse_url(url, host, port, path, ssl)
is equivalent to
OSSL_HTTP_parse_url(url, ssl, NULL, host, port, NULL, path, NULL, NULL).

=head1 RETURN VALUES

OSSL_HTTP_adapt_proxy() returns NULL if no proxy is to be used,
otherwise a constant proxy hostname string,
which is either the proxy name handed in or an environment variable value.

OSSL_parse_url(), OSSL_HTTP_parse_url(), and OCSP_parse_url()
return 1 on success, 0 on error.
