laminas-http
============

[](#laminas-http)

laminas-http provides the HTTP message abstraction used by [laminas-mvc](https://docs.laminas.dev/laminas-mvc/), and also provides an extensible, adapter-driven HTTP client library.

This library **does not** support [PSR-7](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7), as it predates that specification. For PSR-7 support, please see our [Diactoros component](https://docs.laminas.dev/laminas-diactoros/).

Installation
