Getting started

To start using a framework, you must create a maven-project and paste address of the repository in pom.xml file and fill dependencies section like that:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
  <groupId>example.group.id</groupId>
  <version>0.1</version>
  <artifactId>exampleId</artifactId>
  <repositories>
      <repository>
          <id>jitpack.io</id>
          <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
      </repository>
  </repositories>
  <dependencies>
      <dependency>
	  <groupId>com.github.ummo93</groupId>
	  <artifactId>EasyWeb</artifactId>
          <version>1.0.0</version>
      </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</project>

Go to the sources directory to Main.java file and start with:

import com.appartika.easyweb.App;
import java.io.IOException;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        App app = new App();
        
        app.get("/", (req, res) -> {
            return res.send("ok", 200);
        });
        
        app.listen(5000);
    }
}

After that, if all is right, you will may open a browser at 'localhost:5000' address, and watch an "ok" message.

A few additional features:

/* Set a path for static files such as .ftl templates, .html, .json, etc... **/
app.setStaticPath("./src/main/resources/");
/* Set a path for public files such as scripts, which downloaded from static pages (.css, .js, etc...) **/
app.setPublicPath("./src/main/resources/public/");

If you want to better distribute the structure of your application, you can write handlers in one place, and handle them in another, for example:

app.get("/", Controller::mainPage);

Where Controller::mainPage is a the same thing as call Controller.mainPage(req, res). Thus you can process requests within the Controller class.

If you want to parse JSON String to Map you can use App.fromJson() method. And use a toJson() to reverse operation.
