Dispatch an HTTP request to the global HTTP thread pool.

void MTY_HttpAsyncRequest(
    uint32_t *   index,
    const char * url,
    const char * method,
    const char * headers,
    const void * body,
    size_t       bodySize,
    const char * proxy,
    uint32_t     timeout,
    bool         image
);

index (uint32_t *)

The thread index to dispatch the request on. This variable acts as a pseudo context as it should be initialized to 0, then is set to a new index internally. If a request is dispatched using an index already executing, the thread is automatically cleared and the new request is dispatched to a different thread.

url (const char *)

The URL for the request, the scheme must be either http or https.

method (const char *)

The HTTP method, i.e. GET or POST.

headers (const char *)

HTTP header key/value pairs in the format Key:Value separated by newline characters.

May be NULL for no additional headers.

body (const void *)

Request payload.

bodySize (size_t)

Size in bytes of body.

proxy (const char *)

The proxy URL including the port, i.e. http://example.com:1337, or NULL to use the OS's default proxy.

timeout (uint32_t)

Time the thread will wait in milliseconds for completion.

image (bool)

Attempt to decompress an image response. If successful, the size argument supplied to MTY_HttpAsyncPoll will be set to width | height << 16.
