HTTPageboy Server

Minimal HTTP server package for handling request/response transmission.

Request: any HTTP request. Route: path + method + handler → returns Response. Response: bytes with content-type, sent to browser.

Example

// lib.rs is the actual implementation of the server. // main.rs is this following example ready for execution. Just run cargo run on the terminal. and go to http://127.0.0.1:7878.

Creating a simple server:

use httpageboy::{Request, Response, Rt, Server, StatusCode}; // Rt is alias for ResponseType

fn main() {
  let serving_url: &str = "127.0.0.1:7878";
  let threads_number: u8 = 10;
  let mut server = Server::new(serving_url, threads_number, None).unwrap();
  server.add_route("/", Rt::GET, demo_get);
  server.add_files_source("res"); //this points to the /res folder in the project root
  server.run();
}

fn demo_get(_request: &Request) -> Response {
  return Response {
    status: StatusCode::Ok.to_string(),
    content_type: String::new(),
    content: "get".as_bytes().to_vec(),
  };
}

Dependencies

There are no external dependencies for production. :) There are two deps used on the tests only. Just remove them.
