The ssl-url collection

This collection provides SSL-enabled variants of various functions from net/url. Each function’s name begins with ssl:, and works like the corresponding function from net/url, except that it uses SSL to communicate with the remote server.

Here’s a trivial call that doesn’t use SSL:

(call/input-url

(string->url "http://www.google.com/")

(curryr get-pure-port '())

(curryr copy-port (current-output-port)))

Here’s the SSL-enabled equivalent (the URL is different because https://www.google.com redirects there):

(call/input-url

(string->url "https://encrypted.google.com/")

(curryr ssl:get-pure-port '())

(curryr copy-port (current-output-port)))

Just for fun, here’s a list of the symbols that it exports. I suspect that only the ones whose names contain "port" are useful.

• ssl:call/input-url

• ssl:combine-url/relative
