A MirageOS with Paf
This simple unikernel shows how to use paf and MirageOS as a client. We
describe a new device http_client which is a composition of several modules
such as happy-eyeballs (to be able to resolve domain name)
and ca-certs to introduce an authenticator.
The usage of this unikernel is simple:
$ opam pin add -y https://github.com/dinosaure/paf-le-chien
$ git clone https://github.com/dinosaure/paf-le-chien
$ cp -r paf-le-chien/unikernel/client/* paf-unikernel/
$ cd paf-unikernel
$ mirage configure -t unix
$ make depends
$ mirage build
$ ./dist/minipaf -u https://www.google.com/
This unikernel is able to talk via http/1.1 and h2 (as paf can do). It prints
out the response and the body (in hexadecimal format, thanks to [hxd][hxd]).
The API of Http_mirage_client comes from the great project
http-lwt-client which does the same but specially for the
unix platform.
