[drakma-devel] Sending content without loading it all in memory?
by Zach Beane 28 Oct '08

Is there any way to send a non-chunked request without having the entire content in memory at once? I'm working on an Amazon S3 client based on Drakma, but sometimes I want to upload (via PUT) very large files and I'd prefer to determine the content-length via FILE-LENGTH and upload the body buffer-by-buffer instead of all at once.

[drakma-devel] Calculating the progress of the file sent through POST request
by Andrei Stebakov 10 Sep '08

I've always wanted to show the user some progress bar when I have to upload a large file to the remote site using http-request. My first attempts to figure out where to plug the progress indicators didn't bring my any success. I'll give it another try, I just would like to know if it's technically possible? Thank you, Andrew

[drakma-devel] digest authentication
by Milan Cermak 10 Sep '08

Hi, is anybody planning to add digest authentication do Drakma in the near future (say, 1 month)? If not, I would do it myself, because I need it. However it would be a poor's man implementation, not the whole RFC. I'd appreciate some tips how to integrate the functionality into the Drakma source code so I can send a clean patch, not just a dirty hack (I already know about http://weitz.de/patches.html) Milan

When trying this: (drakma:http-request "http://news.ycombinator.com/rss") I get and end-of-file error. I can pull this page with curl and firefox, and can't figure out the problem with Drakma. Any ideas? -- Dimitre Liotev
