HTTP and RFC822 Message Object Model

messy is a JavaScript library providing a robust object model for parsing, manipulating, and serializing HTTP messages (requests and responses) and RFC822 (email) messages. It aims to simplify interaction with these complex message formats by abstracting header parsing, body handling, and common operations into a coherent API. The current stable version, 7.0.0, was released in November 2020. Given the last release date, the package is likely in a maintenance state, indicating stability rather than active feature development. It differentiates itself by offering a unified approach to both HTTP and email message structures, which often share similar header-based formats, making it suitable for applications requiring deep inspection or modification of network and mail protocols.
