Package description

What is parse-headers?

The parse-headers npm package is a utility for parsing raw headers from HTTP requests or responses into a JavaScript object. It can be used to easily access header values without manually splitting and trimming strings.

What are parse-headers's main functionalities?

Parse HTTP headers

This feature allows you to convert a raw string of HTTP headers into a JavaScript object where each property corresponds to a header field. The code sample demonstrates how to parse a string of headers and log the resulting object.

const parseHeaders = require('parse-headers');
const rawHeaders = 'Content-Type: text/html\nContent-Length: 123';
const headers = parseHeaders(rawHeaders);
console.log(headers);
