Crate simple_server

Source
Expand description

A simple webserver.

The simple-server crate is designed to give you the tools to to build an HTTP server, based around the http crate, blocking I/O, and a threadpool.

We call it ‘simple’ want to keep the code small, and easy to understand. This is why we’re only using blocking I/O. Depending on your needs, you may or may not want to choose another server. However, just the simple stuff is often enough for many projects.

§Examples

At its core, simple-server contains a Server. The Server is passed a handler upon creation, and the listen method is used to start handling connections.

The other types are from the http crate, and give you the ability to work with various aspects of HTTP. The Request, Response, and ResponseBuilder types are used by the handler you give to Server, for example.

To see examples of this crate in use, please consult the examples directory.
