Polyweb

A web framework utilizing Polynet.

Quick Examples

pn::init();

pw::Server server;

server.route("/hello_world",
    pw::HTTPRoute {
        [](const pw::Connection& conn, const pw::HTTPRequest& req, void* data) {
            return pw::HTTPResponse(200, "Hello, World!", {{"Content-Type", "text/plain"}});
        },
    });

// Since this is a wildcard route, anything may come after /wildcard/
server.route("/wildcard/",
    pw::HTTPRoute {
        [](const pw::Connection& conn, const pw::HTTPRequest& req, void* data) {
            return pw::HTTPResponse(200, req.target, {{"Content-Type", "text/plain"}});
        },
        true,
    });

server.route("/multiply",
    pw::HTTPRoute {
        [](const pw::Connection& conn, const pw::HTTPRequest& req, void* data) {
            int x = std::stoi(req.query_parameters->find("x")->second);
            int y = std::stoi(req.query_parameters->find("y")->second);
            return pw::HTTPResponse(200, std::to_string(x * y), {{"Content-Type", "text/plain"}});
        },
    });

if (server.bind("0.0.0.0", 8000) == PN_ERROR) {
    std::cerr << "Error: " << pn::universal_strerror() << std::endl;
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

if (server.listen() == PN_ERROR) {
    std::cerr << "Error: " << pw::universal_strerror() << std::endl;
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

server.close();
pn::quit();

Note that Polyweb functions/methods throw Polyweb errors while methods inherited from Polynet throw Polynet errors. Do not do anything with the conn argument unless you know what you are doing. The data argument can be used to pass user data to the callbacks, avoiding the use of lambda captures. See polyweb.h to check out more ways to use Polyweb.
