+##HTTP Interface
+LedisDB provides http interfaces for most commands.
+####Request
+The proper url format is
+
+    http://host:port[/db]/cmd/arg1/arg2/.../argN[?type=type]
+
+'db' and 'type' are optional. 'db' stands for ledis db index, ranges from 0 to 15, its default value is 0. 'type' is a custom content type, can be json, bson or msgpack,  json is default.
+
+
+####Response
+
+The response format is
+    
+    { cmd: return_value }
+
+or
+
+    { cmd: [success, message] }
+
+'return_value' stands for the output of 'cmd', it can be a number, a string, a list, or a hash. If the return value  is just a descriptive message, the second format will be taken, and 'success', a boolean value,  indicates whether it is successful. 
+
