基于c++的Simple-Web-Server程序

A very simple, fast, multithreaded, platform independent HTTP and HTTPS server and client library implemented using C++11 and Boost.Asio. Created to be an easy way to make REST resources available from C++ applications. 

This project has moved to https://gitlab.com/eidheim/Simple-Web-Server.

A very simple, fast, multithreaded, platform independent HTTP and HTTPS server and client library implemented using C++11 and Asio (both Boost.Asio and standalone Asio can be used). Created to be an easy way to make REST resources available from C++ applications.
See https://gitlab.com/eidheim/Simple-WebSocket-Server for an easy way to make WebSocket/WebSocket Secure endpoints in C++. Also, feel free to check out the new C++ IDE supporting C++11/14/17: https://gitlab.com/cppit/jucipp.

Features

• Asynchronous request handling
• Thread pool if needed
• Platform independent
• HTTPS support
• HTTP persistent connection (for HTTP/1.1)
• Client supports chunked transfer encoding
• Timeouts, if any of Server::timeout_request and Server::timeout_content are >0 (default: Server::timeout_request=5 seconds, and Server::timeout_content=300 seconds)
• Simple way to add REST resources using regex for path, and anonymous functions

Usage

See http_examples.cpp or https_examples.cpp for example usage.
See particularly the JSON-POST (using Boost.PropertyTree) and the GET /match/[number] examples, which are most relevant.

Dependencies

• Boost.Asio or standalone Asio
• Boost is required to compile the examples
• For HTTPS: OpenSSL libraries

Compile and run

Compile with a C++11 compliant compiler:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
cd ..

HTTP

Run the server and client examples: ./build/http_examples
Direct your favorite browser to for instance http://localhost:8080/

HTTPS

Before running the server, an RSA private key (server.key) and an SSL certificate (server.crt) must be created. Follow, for instance, the instructions given here (for a self-signed certificate): http://www.akadia.com/services/ssh_test_certificate.html
Run the server and client examples: ./build/https_examples
Direct your favorite browser to for instance https://localhost:8080/
