Introduction

I am a beginer in background development. After I take look into¡¶TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 1¡·, I decide to create a mini http server. This is version 0.1, so that There is only little server.In this project, I use some other library, such as libevent, tinyhttp.There project have two function. First, You can use API to register [url and callback] and the library get http message from socket and parse it. Then It return a REQUEST object(which include url, method and so on) to callback function. The callback just only return a RESPONSE(include raw character). Second, If the library never find url in list, It will search html file or cgi program.

Build

cd miniserver
make

It will build a static library(libminiserver.a) and a miniserver.h file.

API

• serverInit: init the sever.
• urlhandle_add: add the [url, callback].
• urlhandle_del: delete the [url, callback].
• urlhandle_set: set the parameter of [url, callback].
• serverStartUp: start the server.

TODO

• add the JSON function
• support more function of HTTP protocol
