You can now say the following in your redbean Lua code:
status,headers,payload = Fetch("https://foo.example")
The following Lua APIs have been introduced:
- Fetch(str) → str,{str:str},str
- GetHttpReason(int) → str
- GetHttpReason(int) → str
- ProgramSslFetchVerify(bool)
- ProgramSslClientVerify(bool)
The following flags have been introduced:
- `-j` enables client SSL verification
- `-k` disables Fetch() SSL verification
- `-t INT` may now be passed a negative value for keepalive
Lua exceptions now invoke Cosmopolitan's garbage collector when
unwinding the stack. So it's now safe to use _gc() w/ Lua 𝔱𝔥𝔯𝔬𝔴
See #97
Your redbean can now interoperate with clients that require TLS crypto.
This is accomplished using a protocol polyglot that lets us distinguish
between HTTP and HTTPS regardless of the port number. Certificates will
be generated automatically, if none are supplied by the user. Footprint
increases by only a few hundred kb so redbean in MODY=tiny is now 1.0mb

- Add all the mbedtls test suites and make them go 3x faster
- Support opendir() / readdir() / closedir() on ZIP executable
- Use Everest for ECDHE-ECDSA because it's so good it's so good

- Source entropy on Windows from the proper interface everyone uses
We're continuing to outperform NGINX and other servers on raw message
throughput. Using SSL means that instead of 1,000,000 qps you can get
around 300,000 qps. However redbean isn't as fast as NGINX yet at SSL
handshakes, since redbean can do 2,627 per second and NGINX does 4.3k
Right now, the SSL UX story works best if you give your redbean a key
signing key since that can be easily generated by openssl using a one
liner then redbean will do all the things that are impossibly hard to
do like signing ecdsa and rsa certificates that'll work in chrome. We
should integrate the let's encrypt acme protocol in the future.

This change brings page faults for precompressed static asset serving
down from 27 to 20 (or fewer) after fork. This is more of an art than
science. Hopefully Blinkenlights can visualize page faults soon.
