HTTP

🌶️🌶️ - HTTP sample pack

Shows how to use the HTTP related APIs in System.Net.

Please note that samples are offered in "pairs": one for wired connected targets and another one for Wi-Fi connected targets.

Scenarios

HTTP listener

🌶️🌶️ - Http Listener on how to implement a HTTP listener to reply to incoming HTTP requests. 🌶️🌶️ - Http Listener with wifi on how to implement a HTTP listener to reply to incoming HTTP requests for Wi-Fi connected targets..

Note: this is NOT an HTTP server, just a sample to illustrate how to use the HTTP Listener class.

HTTP Web Request

🌶️🌶️ - Http Web Request on how to perform a HTTP Web requests. Optionally to secured (TLS) servers. 🌶️🌶️ - Http Web Request with wifi on how to perform a HTTP Web requests for Wi-Fi connected targets. Optionally to secured (TLS) servers.

HTTP Azure Get

Hardware requirements

An hardware device with networking capabilities running a nanoFramework image. This sample is coded to use the STM32F769IDiscovery target board, but can be easily changed to any other target that has networking capabilities.

NOTE: When working with a target with Wi-Fi capabilities, make sure to add HAS_WIFI into the DefineConstants, like this:

<DefineConstants>$(DefineConstants);HAS_WIFI;</DefineConstants>
