Support for http 2.0

Hi,

will mormot2 support http 2.0 protocols?

I just noticed, that it likely does.
So let's rephrase: how do I enable it. How can I handle multiplex requests?

Regards,
Daniel

There is no native HTTP 2.0 support in mORMOt, even mORMot 2.

The usual configuration is to put a nginx reverse proxy in front of it, then force HTTP/1.0 connections to the mORMot local server on the loopback.
It is very efficient, especially if you use a unix sockets between the local server and nginx.

Re: Support for http 2.0

IMHO its very hard to implement HTTP/2 correctly. I remember many issues with HTTP/2 even in ngnx. But last 2 years it has been stable and, as @ab recommends, we use nginx as http2 reverse proxy for all our productions (some of them are very big).
And we cautiously start looking at http3 (QUIC)

libcurl backend supports http2.

Yes, libcurl is for the client side.

But I meant HTTP2.0 support for the server side.
