NAME

Net::Analysis::Listener::HTTP - an HTTP listener

SYNOPSIS

Listens for:
tcp_session_start
tcp_session_end
tcp_monologue Emits:
http_transaction

CONFIGURATION

 v - verbosity. If >0, print out sample one-line summary for each transaction

EMITTED EVENTS

"http_transaction"

Marries together two <tcp_monologues> that correspond to a HTTP request and response. The event will contain the following arguments:

 socketpair_key - uniquely identifies the TCP session
 req            - HTTP::Request object
 resp           - HTTP::Response object
 t_start        - Net::Analysis::Time object, start of xaction
 t_end          - Net::Analysis::Time object, end of xaction
 t_elapsed      - Net::Analysis::Time object, duration of xaction
 req_mono       - Net::Analysis::TCPMonologue object for the request
 resp_mono      - Net::Analysis::TCPMonologue object for the response

If you need packet level info, you can dig it out of the TCPMonologue objects. Note that this particular module does not currently support HTTP pipelining; it expects requests/responses to correspond to back-and-forth monologues. Look at the Net::Analysis::Listener::HTTPPipelining for an alpha implementation of handling pipelined HTTP.
