Hello @dudzio12 - thank you for this PR and all the hard work you put into it. In general, I am incredibly thankful that this library is still being used and you took the time to update it! I candidly haven't developed on the esp8266 for the last 3 years so my maintenance has not been good. With all that said, I found a few area I think we should discuss/address before I could accept this PR. Take a look and let me know what you think. Thanks again!

What is the purpose of this delay?

Why add this delay? Probably should remove the comment on HTTP_DEBUG_PRINT as well - lets keep the original debug output consistent.

Its silly, but the original grammar is correct: "you are" starting a new line

I would rather not revert all this debugging.

I don't think you want this extra || client.available() here. While it should never be true if connected() is false it incorrectly tells other developers that we should execute this block even if the client is not connected.

Perhaps a slightly better name would be getLastRequestRaw

According to the spec https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec4.html the end of the end of the headers should be \r\n\r\n

The consumer may still call setContentType so we should keep the conditional logic around these
if (!contentType) {
contentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"; // default
}
Hi,
Thanks for updating repository. Since that the original one is no longer working on newest libs - I prepared PR on your forked repo.
I've added 2 new methods, you can check it on updated readme.md.
