A simple server for testing an upcoming project
make build
or if you want to make a docker container:
make docker-build
./math_server -port=9090
This launches the server, listening on port 9090. If you don't specify a port, it defaults to 8080.
Using docker:
make docker-run
Launches the server on port 8080. To customize the port:
docker run -p 9090:9090 math_server:latest -port 9090
There's a single query parameter expression that expects an arithmetic expression. (, ), +, -, *, and / are supported.
Order of operations is respected.
There must be a space between each operator and number. If the expression is valid, the result is returned as a string with a status code 200.
If the expression is invalid, an error message is returned with a 400 status code.
From the command line:
curl -G --data-urlencode "expression= ( 2 + 2 ) * -10" localhost:8080
curl -G --data-urlencode "expression= 2 + 2 * -10" localhost:8080
