RESTful web server

[DJuego]

Thank you for this project! Thank you for your effort!

Header-only, no dependencies. cross-platform, light and elegant... It's the closest thing to the solution I was looking for.

Only I miss a more complete interface (with PUT and DELETE and perhaps, others). Any reason not to implement those features?

In any case I am not an expert and I think that what your project offers is enough for my purposes. :-)

Thanks again!

@DJuego, thank you for the feedback. There wasn't any particular reason why I haven't implemented other methods like PUT and DELETE. I only needed GET and POST when I wrote this library. I may add missing HTTP methods in the future. Thanks for asking!

Also need OPTIONS (#62).

[yhirose]

Providing Server::delete method is not possible since delete is a C++ reserved keyword. So we have to compromise to choose a different name like del. Or we could use DELETE. If we choose such a word with all capital letters, I guess others like get, head and post also should be changed to GET, HEAD, and POST for consistency. It'll cause a breaking change, but it seems like that's the way we should take.

Yes. I like DELETE (and POST, GET, HEAD of course). I don´t like "del". I do not feel "standard".

Another option is "Delete" And so; Post, Get, Head,

I have no problems with breaking changes for this feature. It is a great step that deserves it.

I've been using cpp-httplib on Windows and I'm really satisfied. Now I want to try Linux. ;-)

I begin to feel the need for a more complete interface. I need to be able to respond to requests from other projects that make requests that I can not handle (PUT, DELETE ...)

Please, any progress in that regard would be greatly welcome!! Thanks
