Does anybody know if there is a [httpclient] object that allows one to fetch url's from within pd? I want to grab small bits of XML feeds into my patch.
I started to try to use the [netclient] object by making requests to port 80 on servers, but I'm just curious if somebody created something that runs from with in pd already?
Thanks! Chipp
Look at [mrpeach/tcpclient]. The help file does that. You need to format the strings as lists of bytes, probably tables are the best way to do that, although if you have Pd-extended the [mrpeach/str tolist] object will do it. Or just use text files with the request strings. Then load the response into a table and parse it there.

Here's a sketch to start with. It works sometimes, but seems to be a
bit flaky:

Ah, right, here's an updated version, that will also disconnect if
there's no response within 5000ms.
