a simple HTTP / CGI server written in shell, using netcat for a socket
a sinatra-like web application framework, written in shell, with a CGI interface.
define handlers like this:
get "/" index; index () {
header "Content-Type" "text/html"
cat <<EOT
<html>
<head>
<title>hello world</title>
</head>
<body>
PATH_INFO=$PATH_INFO
</body>
</html>
EOT
}
get "/redirect" redirect_handler; redirect_handler () {
status 302
header "Location" "https://github.com/tlrobinson/martin.sh/"
}
get "/DeanMartin.jpg" dean_handler; dean_handler () {
header "Content-Type" "image/jpeg"
cat "DeanMartin.jpg"
}hopefully it's obvious, but these projects are for fun and not meant to be taken seriously. wwwoosh can only handle about 2 request per second (any additional fail completely), not to mention there's probably some pretty nasty security issues with it.
it is, however, a demonstration of the simplicity of HTTP, and the power of unix shells
