module: [kind=event] http_failure see: http.request To send an HTTP request.

The @{http_failure} event is fired when an HTTP request fails.

This event is normally handled inside @{http.get} and @{http.post}, but it can still be seen when using @{http.request}.

Return Values

  1. @{string}: The event name.
  2. @{string}: The URL of the site requested.
  3. @{string}: An error describing the failure.
  4. @{http.Response}|@{nil}: A response handle if the connection succeeded, but the server's response indicated failure.

Example

Prints an error why the website cannot be contacted:

local myURL = "https://does.not.exist.tweaked.cc"
http.request(myURL)
local event, url, err
repeat
    event, url, err = os.pullEvent("http_failure")
until url == myURL
print("The URL " .. url .. " could not be reached: " .. err)

Prints the contents of a webpage that does not exist:

local myURL = "https://tweaked.cc/this/does/not/exist"
http.request(myURL)
local event, url, err, handle
repeat
    event, url, err, handle = os.pullEvent("http_failure")
until url == myURL
print("The URL " .. url .. " could not be reached: " .. err)
print(handle.getResponseCode())
handle.close()
