This is an implementation of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol version 2 in C.
The framing layer of HTTP/2 is implemented as a reusable C library. On top of that, we have implemented an HTTP/2 client, server and proxy. We have also developed load test and benchmarking tools for HTTP/2.
An HPACK encoder and decoder are available as a public API.
An experimental high level C++ library is also available.
We have Python bindings of this library, but we do not have full code coverage yet.
We have implemented RFC 7540 HTTP/2 and RFC 7541 HPACK - Header Compression for HTTP/2
The nghttp2 code base was forked from the spdylay (https://github.com/tatsuhiro-t/spdylay) project.
The following endpoints are available to try out our nghttp2 implementation.
https://nghttp2.org/ (TLS + ALPN/NPN)
This endpoint supports h2
, h2-16
, h2-14
, and
http/1.1
via ALPN/NPN and requires TLSv1.2 for HTTP/2
connection.
http://nghttp2.org/ (HTTP Upgrade and HTTP/2 Direct)
h2c
and http/1.1
.
The following package is required to build the libnghttp2 library:
To build and run the unit test programs, the following package is required:
To build the documentation, you need to install:
If you need libnghttp2 (C library) only, then the above packages are
all you need. Use --enable-lib-only
to ensure that only
libnghttp2 is built. This avoids potential build error related to
building bundled applications.
To build and run the application programs (nghttp
, nghttpd
,
nghttpx
and h2load
) in the src
directory, the following packages
are required:
ALPN support requires OpenSSL >= 1.0.2 (released 22 January 2015). LibreSSL >= 2.2.0 can be used instead of OpenSSL, but OpenSSL has more features than LibreSSL at the time of this writing.
To enable -a
option (getting linked assets from the downloaded
resource) in nghttp
, the following package is required:
To enable systemd support in nghttpx, the following package is required:
The HPACK tools require the following package:
To build sources under the examples directory, libevent is required:
To mitigate heap fragmentation in long running server programs
(nghttpd
and nghttpx
), jemalloc is recommended:
jemalloc
Note
Alpine Linux currently does not support malloc replacement due to musl limitations. See details in issue #762.
libnghttp2_asio C++ library requires the following packages:
The Python bindings require the following packages:
If you are using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or Debian 8 (jessie) and above, run the following to install the required packages:
sudo apt-get install g++ make binutils autoconf automake autotools-dev libtool pkg-config \
zlib1g-dev libcunit1-dev libssl-dev libxml2-dev libev-dev libevent-dev libjansson-dev \
libc-ares-dev libjemalloc-dev libsystemd-dev \
cython python3-dev python-setuptools
To enable mruby support for nghttpx, mruby is required. We need to build
mruby with C++ ABI explicitly turned on, and probably need other
mrgems, mruby is manged by git submodule under third-party/mruby
directory. Currently, mruby support for nghttpx is disabled by
default. To enable mruby support, use --with-mruby
configure
option. Note that at the time of this writing, libmruby-dev and mruby
packages in Debian/Ubuntu are not usable for nghttp2, since they do
not enable C++ ABI. To build mruby, the following packages are
required:
nghttpx supports neverbleed,
privilege separation engine for OpenSSL / LibreSSL. In short, it
minimizes the risk of private key leakage when serious bug like
Heartbleed is exploited. The neverbleed is disabled by default. To
enable it, use --with-neverbleed
configure option.
Compiling libnghttp2 C source code requires a C99 compiler. gcc 4.8 is known to be adequate. In order to compile the C++ source code, gcc >= 6.0 or clang >= 6.0 is required. C++ source code requires C++14 language features.
Note
To enable mruby support in nghttpx, and use --with-mruby
configure option.
Note
Mac OS X users may need the --disable-threads
configure option to
disable multi-threading in nghttpd, nghttpx and h2load to prevent
them from crashing. A patch is welcome to make multi threading work
on Mac OS X platform.
Note
To compile the associated applications (nghttp, nghttpd, nghttpx
and h2load), you must use the --enable-app
configure option and
ensure that the specified requirements above are met. Normally,
configure script checks required dependencies to build these
applications, and enable --enable-app
automatically, so you
don't have to use it explicitly. But if you found that
applications were not built, then using --enable-app
may find
that cause, such as the missing dependency.
Note
In order to detect third party libraries, pkg-config is used
(however we don't use pkg-config for some libraries (e.g., libev)).
By default, pkg-config searches *.pc
file in the standard
locations (e.g., /usr/lib/pkgconfig). If it is necessary to use
*.pc
file in the custom location, specify paths to
PKG_CONFIG_PATH
environment variable, and pass it to configure
script, like so:
$ ./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/pkgconfig
For pkg-config managed libraries, *_CFLAG
and *_LIBS
environment variables are defined (e.g., OPENSSL_CFLAGS
,
OPENSSL_LIBS
). Specifying non-empty string to these variables
completely overrides pkg-config. In other words, if they are
specified, pkg-config is not used for detection, and user is
responsible to specify the correct values to these variables. For
complete list of these variables, run ./configure -h
.
The nghttp2 project regularly releases tar archives which includes nghttp2 source code, and generated build files. They can be downloaded from Releases page.
Building nghttp2 from git requires autotools development packages. Building from tar archives does not require them, and thus it is much easier. The usual build step is as follows:
$ tar xf nghttp2-X.Y.Z.tar.bz2
$ cd nghttp2-X.Y.Z
$ ./configure
$ make
Building from git is easy, but please be sure that at least autoconf 2.68 is used:
$ git submodule update --init
$ autoreconf -i
$ automake
$ autoconf
$ ./configure
$ make
The easiest way to build native Windows nghttp2 dll is use cmake. The free version of Visual C++ Build Tools works fine.
cmake
.cmake --build
to build library.Note that the above steps most likely produce nghttp2 library only. No bundled applications are compiled.
Under Mingw environment, you can only compile the library, it's
libnghttp2-X.dll
and libnghttp2.a
.
If you want to compile the applications(h2load
, nghttp
,
nghttpx
, nghttpd
), you need to use the Cygwin environment.
Under Cygwin environment, to compile the applications you need to compile and install the libev first.
Secondly, you need to undefine the macro __STRICT_ANSI__
, if you
not, the functions fdopen
, fileno
and strptime
will not
available.
the sample command like this:
$ export CFLAGS="-U__STRICT_ANSI__ -I$libev_PREFIX/include -L$libev_PREFIX/lib"
$ export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS
$ ./configure
$ make
If you want to compile the applications under examples/
, you need
to remove or rename the event.h
from libev's installation, because
it conflicts with libevent's installation.
After installing nghttp2 tool suite with make install
one might experience a similar error:
nghttpx: error while loading shared libraries: libnghttp2.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This means that the tool is unable to locate the libnghttp2.so
shared library.
To update the shared library cache run sudo ldconfig
.
Note
Documentation is still incomplete.
To build the documentation, run:
$ make html
The documents will be generated under doc/manual/html/
.
The generated documents will not be installed with make install
.
The online documentation is available at https://nghttp2.org/documentation/
Unit tests are done by simply running make check
.
We have the integration tests for the nghttpx proxy server. The tests are written in the Go programming language and uses its testing framework. We depend on the following libraries:
Go modules will download these dependencies automatically.
To run the tests, run the following command under
integration-tests
directory:
$ make it
Inside the tests, we use port 3009 to run the test subject server.
nghttp2 v1.0.0 introduced several backward incompatible changes. In this section, we describe these changes and how to migrate to v1.0.0.
h2
and h2c
Previously we announced h2-14
and h2c-14
. v1.0.0 implements
final protocol version, and we changed ALPN ID to h2
and h2c
.
The macros NGHTTP2_PROTO_VERSION_ID
,
NGHTTP2_PROTO_VERSION_ID_LEN
,
NGHTTP2_CLEARTEXT_PROTO_VERSION_ID
, and
NGHTTP2_CLEARTEXT_PROTO_VERSION_ID_LEN
have been updated to
reflect this change.
Basically, existing applications do not have to do anything, just recompiling is enough for this change.
We use "client connection preface" to mean first 24 bytes of client connection preface. This is technically not correct, since client connection preface is composed of 24 bytes client magic byte string followed by SETTINGS frame. For clarification, we call "client magic" for this 24 bytes byte string and updated API.
NGHTTP2_CLIENT_CONNECTION_PREFACE
was replaced with
NGHTTP2_CLIENT_MAGIC
.NGHTTP2_CLIENT_CONNECTION_PREFACE_LEN
was replaced with
NGHTTP2_CLIENT_MAGIC_LEN
.NGHTTP2_BAD_PREFACE
was renamed as NGHTTP2_BAD_CLIENT_MAGIC
The already deprecated NGHTTP2_CLIENT_CONNECTION_HEADER
and
NGHTTP2_CLIENT_CONNECTION_HEADER_LEN
were removed.
If application uses these macros, just replace old ones with new ones. Since v1.0.0, client magic is sent by library (see next subsection), so client application may just remove these macro use.
Previously nghttp2 library did not send client magic, which is first
24 bytes byte string of client connection preface, and client
applications have to send it by themselves. Since v1.0.0, client
magic is sent by library via first call of nghttp2_session_send()
or nghttp2_session_mem_send()
.
The client applications which send client magic must remove the relevant code.
Alt-Svc specification is not finalized yet. To make our API stable, we have decided to remove all Alt-Svc related API from nghttp2.
NGHTTP2_EXT_ALTSVC
was removed.nghttp2_ext_altsvc
was removed.We have already removed the functionality of Alt-Svc in v0.7 series and they have been essentially noop. The application using these macro and struct, remove those lines.
Previously nghttp2_on_invalid_frame_recv_cb_called
took the
error_code
, defined in nghttp2_error_code
, as parameter. But
they are not detailed enough to debug. Therefore, we decided to use
more detailed nghttp2_error
values instead.
The application using this callback should update the callback
signature. If it treats error_code
as HTTP/2 error code, update
the code so that it is treated as nghttp2_error
.
Previously nghttp2 did not process client magic (24 bytes byte
string). To make it deal with it, we had to use
nghttp2_option_set_recv_client_preface()
. Since v1.0.0, nghttp2
processes client magic by default and
nghttp2_option_set_recv_client_preface()
was removed.
Some application may want to disable this behaviour, so we added
nghttp2_option_set_no_recv_client_magic()
to achieve this.
The application using nghttp2_option_set_recv_client_preface()
with nonzero value, just remove it.
The application using nghttp2_option_set_recv_client_preface()
with zero value or not using it must use
nghttp2_option_set_no_recv_client_magic()
with nonzero value.
The src
directory contains the HTTP/2 client, server and proxy programs.
nghttp
is a HTTP/2 client. It can connect to the HTTP/2 server
with prior knowledge, HTTP Upgrade and NPN/ALPN TLS extension.
It has verbose output mode for framing information. Here is sample
output from nghttp
client:

Using the -r
option, nghttp
writes more detailed timing data to
the given file in HAR format.
nghttpd
is a multi-threaded static web server.
By default, it uses SSL/TLS connection. Use --no-tls
option to
disable it.
nghttpd
only accepts HTTP/2 connections via NPN/ALPN or direct
HTTP/2 connections. No HTTP Upgrade is supported.
The -p
option allows users to configure server push.
Just like nghttp
, it has a verbose output mode for framing
information. Here is sample output from nghttpd

nghttpx
is a multi-threaded reverse proxy for HTTP/2, and
HTTP/1.1, and powers http://nghttp2.org and supports HTTP/2 server
push.
We reworked nghttpx
command-line interface, and as a result, there
are several incompatibles from 1.8.0 or earlier. This is necessary to
extend its capability, and secure the further feature enhancements in
the future release. Please read Migration from nghttpx v1.8.0 or
earlier
to know how to migrate from earlier releases.
nghttpx
implements important performance-oriented features in TLS, such as
session IDs, session tickets (with automatic key rotation), OCSP
stapling, dynamic record sizing, ALPN/NPN, forward secrecy and HTTP/2.
nghttpx
also offers the functionality to share session cache and
ticket keys among multiple nghttpx
instances via memcached.
nghttpx
has 2 operation modes:
Mode option | Frontend | Backend | Note |
---|---|---|---|
default mode | HTTP/2, HTTP/1.1 | HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2 | Reverse proxy |
--http2-proxy |
HTTP/2, HTTP/1.1 | HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2 | Forward proxy |
The interesting mode at the moment is the default mode. It works like a reverse proxy and listens for HTTP/2, and HTTP/1.1 and can be deployed as a SSL/TLS terminator for existing web server.
In all modes, the frontend connections are encrypted by SSL/TLS by
default. To disable encryption, use the no-tls
keyword in
--frontend
option. If encryption is disabled, incoming HTTP/1.1
connections can be upgraded to HTTP/2 through HTTP Upgrade. On the
other hard, backend connections are not encrypted by default. To
encrypt backend connections, use tls
keyword in --backend
option.
nghttpx
supports a configuration file. See the --conf
option and
sample configuration file nghttpx.conf.sample
.
In the default mode, nghttpx
works as reverse proxy to the backend
server:
Client <-- (HTTP/2, HTTP/1.1) --> nghttpx <-- (HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2) --> Web Server
[reverse proxy]
With the --http2-proxy
option, it works as forward proxy, and it
is so called secure HTTP/2 proxy:
Client <-- (HTTP/2, HTTP/1.1) --> nghttpx <-- (HTTP/1.1) --> Proxy
[secure proxy] (e.g., Squid, ATS)
The Client
in the above example needs to be configured to use
nghttpx
as secure proxy.
At the time of this writing, both Chrome and Firefox support secure HTTP/2 proxy. One way to configure Chrome to use a secure proxy is to create a proxy.pac script like this:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
return "HTTPS SERVERADDR:PORT";
}
SERVERADDR
and PORT
is the hostname/address and port of the
machine nghttpx is running on. Please note that Chrome requires a valid
certificate for secure proxy.
Then run Chrome with the following arguments:
$ google-chrome --proxy-pac-url=file:///path/to/proxy.pac --use-npn
The backend HTTP/2 connections can be tunneled through an HTTP proxy.
The proxy is specified using --backend-http-proxy-uri
. The
following figure illustrates how nghttpx talks to the outside HTTP/2
proxy through an HTTP proxy:
Client <-- (HTTP/2, HTTP/1.1) --> nghttpx <-- (HTTP/2) --
--===================---> HTTP/2 Proxy
(HTTP proxy tunnel) (e.g., nghttpx -s)
The h2load
program is a benchmarking tool for HTTP/2. The UI of
h2load
is heavily inspired by weighttp
(https://github.com/lighttpd/weighttp). The typical usage is as
follows:
$ h2load -n100000 -c100 -m100 https://localhost:8443/

time to 1st byte: 209.11ms 254.80ms 241.51ms 7.94ms 63.00%
The above example issued total 100,000 requests, using 100 concurrent
clients (in other words, 100 HTTP/2 sessions), and a maximum of 100 streams
per client. With the -t
option, h2load
will use multiple native
threads to avoid saturating a single core on client side.
Warning
Don't use this tool against publicly available servers. That is considered a DOS attack. Please only use it against your private servers.
The src
directory contains the HPACK tools. The deflatehd
program is a
command-line header compression tool. The inflatehd
program is a
command-line header decompression tool. Both tools read input from
stdin and write output to stdout. Errors are written to stderr.
They take JSON as input and output. We (mostly) use the same JSON data
format described at https://github.com/http2jp/hpack-test-case.
The deflatehd
program reads JSON data or HTTP/1-style header fields from
stdin and outputs compressed header block in JSON.
For the JSON input, the root JSON object must include a cases
key.
Its value has to include the sequence of input header set. They share
the same compression context and are processed in the order they
appear. Each item in the sequence is a JSON object and it must
include a headers
key. Its value is an array of JSON objects,
which includes exactly one name/value pair.
Example:
{
"cases":
[
{
"headers": [
{ ":method": "GET" },
{ ":path": "/" }
]
},
{
"headers": [
{ ":method": "POST" },
{ ":path": "/" }
]
}
]
}
With the -t
option, the program can accept more familiar HTTP/1 style
header field blocks. Each header set is delimited by an empty line:
Example:
:method: GET
:scheme: https
:path: /
:method: POST
user-agent: nghttp2
The output is in JSON object. It should include a cases
key and its
value is an array of JSON objects, which has at least the following keys:
output_length
/ input_length
* 100Examples:

"cases":

},
{

},
{

}
],
"header_table_size": 4096
}
]
}
The output can be used as the input for inflatehd
and
deflatehd
.
With the -d
option, the extra header_table
key is added and its
associated value includes the state of dynamic header table after the
corresponding header set was processed. The value includes at least
the following keys:
referenced
is true
, it
is in the reference set. The size
includes the overhead (32
bytes). The index
corresponds to the index of header table.
The name
is the header field name and the value
is the
header field value.max_deflate_size
.max_size
. In this case, the encoder only uses up to first
max_deflate_size
buffer. Since the header table size is still
max_size
, the encoder has to keep track of entries outside the
max_deflate_size
but inside the max_size
and make sure
that they are no longer referenced.Example:

The inflatehd
program reads JSON data from stdin and outputs decompressed
name/value pairs in JSON.
The root JSON object must include the cases
key. Its value has to
include the sequence of compressed header blocks. They share the same
compression context and are processed in the order they appear. Each
item in the sequence is a JSON object and it must have at least a
wire
key. Its value is a compressed header block as a hex string.
Example:
{
"cases":
[
{ "wire": "8285" },
{ "wire": "8583" }
]
}
The output is a JSON object. It should include a cases
key and its
value is an array of JSON objects, which has at least following keys:
Example:
{
"cases":
[
{
"seq": 0,
"wire": "01881f3468e5891afcbf83868a3d856659c62e3f",

}
The output can be used as the input for deflatehd
and
inflatehd
.
With the -d
option, the extra header_table
key is added and its
associated value includes the state of the dynamic header table after the
corresponding header set was processed. The format is the same as
deflatehd
.
libnghttp2_asio is C++ library built on top of libnghttp2 and provides high level abstraction API to build HTTP/2 applications. It depends on the Boost::ASIO library and OpenSSL. Currently libnghttp2_asio provides both client and server APIs.
libnghttp2_asio is not built by default. Use the --enable-asio-lib
configure flag to build libnghttp2_asio. The required Boost libraries
are:
The server API is designed to build an HTTP/2 server very easily to utilize C++14 anonymous functions and closures. The bare minimum example of an HTTP/2 server looks like this:
#include <iostream>
#include <nghttp2/asio_http2_server.h>
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2::server;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
http2 server;
server.handle("/", [](const request &req, const response &res) {
res.write_head(200);
res.end("hello, world\n");
});
if (server.listen_and_serve(ec, "localhost", "3000")) {
std::cerr << "error: " << ec.message() << std::endl;
}
}
Here is sample code to use the client API:
#include <iostream>
#include <nghttp2/asio_http2_client.h>
using boost::asio::ip::tcp;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2;
using namespace nghttp2::asio_http2::client;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
boost::asio::io_service io_service;
// connect to localhost:3000
session sess(io_service, "localhost", "3000");
sess.on_connect([&sess](tcp::resolver::iterator endpoint_it) {
boost::system::error_code ec;
auto req = sess.submit(ec, "GET", "http://localhost:3000/");
req->on_response([](const response &res) {
// print status code and response header fields.
std::cerr << "HTTP/2 " << res.status_code() << std::endl;
for (auto &kv : res.header()) {
std::cerr << kv.first << ": " << kv.second.value << "\n";
}
std::cerr << std::endl;
res.on_data([](const uint8_t *data, std::size_t len) {
std::cerr.write(reinterpret_cast<const char *>(data), len);
std::cerr << std::endl;
});
});
req->on_close([&sess](uint32_t error_code) {
// shutdown session after first request was done.
sess.shutdown();
});
});
sess.on_error([](const boost::system::error_code &ec) {
std::cerr << "error: " << ec.message() << std::endl;
});
io_service.run();
}
For more details, see the documentation of libnghttp2_asio.
The python
directory contains nghttp2 Python bindings. The
bindings currently provide HPACK compressor and decompressor classes
and an HTTP/2 server.
The extension module is called nghttp2
.
make
will build the bindings and target Python version is
determined by the configure
script. If the detected Python version is not
what you expect, specify a path to Python executable in a PYTHON
variable as an argument to configure script (e.g., ./configure
PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3.8
).
The following example code illustrates basic usage of the HPACK compressor and decompressor in Python:
import binascii
import nghttp2
deflater = nghttp2.HDDeflater()
inflater = nghttp2.HDInflater()
data = deflater.deflate([(b'foo', b'bar'),
(b'baz', b'buz')])
print(binascii.b2a_hex(data))
hdrs = inflater.inflate(data)
print(hdrs)
The nghttp2.HTTP2Server
class builds on top of the asyncio event
loop. On construction, RequestHandlerClass must be given, which
must be a subclass of nghttp2.BaseRequestHandler
class.
The BaseRequestHandler
class is used to handle the HTTP/2 stream.
By default, it does nothing. It must be subclassed to handle each
event callback method.
The first callback method invoked is on_headers()
. It is called
when HEADERS frame, which includes the request header fields, has arrived.
If the request has a request body, on_data(data)
is invoked for each
chunk of received data.
Once the entire request is received, on_request_done()
is invoked.
When the stream is closed, on_close(error_code)
is called.
The application can send a response using send_response()
method.
It can be used in on_headers()
, on_data()
or
on_request_done()
.
The application can push resources using the push()
method. It must be
used before the send_response()
call.
The following instance variables are available:
The following example illustrates the HTTP2Server and BaseRequestHandler usage:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import io, ssl
import nghttp2
class Handler(nghttp2.BaseRequestHandler):
def on_headers(self):
self.push(path='/css/bootstrap.css',
request_headers = [('content-length', '3')],
status=200,
body='foo')
self.push(path='/js/bootstrap.js',
method='GET',
request_headers = [('content-length', '10')],
status=200,
body='foobarbuzz')
self.send_response(status=200,
headers = [('content-type', 'text/plain')],
body=io.BytesIO(b'nghttp2-python FTW'))
ctx = ssl.SSLContext(ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23)
ctx.options = ssl.OP_ALL | ssl.OP_NO_SSLv2
ctx.load_cert_chain('server.crt', 'server.key')
# give None to ssl to make the server non-SSL/TLS
server = nghttp2.HTTP2Server(('127.0.0.1', 8443), Handler, ssl=ctx)
server.serve_forever()
