== NAME

nng_http_req_alloc - allocate HTTP request structure

== SYNOPSIS

[source, c]
----
#include <nng/nng.h>
#include <nng/supplemental/http/http.h>

int nng_http_req_alloc(nng_http_req **reqp, const nng_url *url);
----

== DESCRIPTION

The `nng_http_req_alloc()` function allocates a new HTTP request structure
and stores a pointer to it in __reqp__.
The request will be initialized
to perform an HTTP/1.1 `GET` operation using the URL specified in __url__.

TIP: It is possible to specify `NULL` for the URL.
In this case the URI for the request must be specified by a subsequent call
to `<<nng_http_req_set_uri.3http#,nng_http_req_set_uri()>>`.

== RETURN VALUES

This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.

== ERRORS

[horizontal]
`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient free memory exists to allocate a message.
`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: HTTP support not configured.
