== NAME
nng_http_req_add_header - add HTTP request header
== SYNOPSIS
[source, c]
----
#include <nng/nng.h>
#include <nng/supplemental/http/http.h>
int nng_http_req_add_header(nng_http_req *req, const char *key,
const char *val);
----
== DESCRIPTION
The `nng_http_req_add_header()` adds an HTTP header for the request
_req_ and the _key_ to the _val_. The _key_ and _val_ are copied.
If a header with the value of _key_ already exists, then a comma
and whitespace separate are appended to it, followed by _val_.
If no such header already exists, then one is created with the value _val_.
TIP: The HTTP specification requires that duplicate headers be treated
identically to a single header with multiple comma-delimited values.
TIP: See xref:nng_http_req_set_header.3http.adoc[`nng_http_req_set_header()`] if
replacement of an existing header rather than appending to it is desired.
The value of _key_ is case insensitive, and should not include the final
colon in an HTTP header.
For example, specifying `Host` or `hOSt` are
equivalent, whereas the value `Host:` is not a legal header key.
== RETURN VALUES
This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
== ERRORS
[horizontal]
`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient memory to perform the operation.
`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: No support for HTTP in the library.
