OnionLibonion - Lightweight C library to add web server functionality to your programlibonion is a lightweight library to help you create webservers in C programming language. These webservers may be a web application, a means of expanding your own application to give it web functionality or even a fully featured webserver. The user can create new handlers that serve reading data from a file or creating them. However, there are many default handlers included to address the most frequently required needs. The name libonion comes from the idea that the path transversal is being done using many layers of handlers: on one layer you set the auth control, on another you check the server hostname (so that you could have virtual hosts) and on yet another a regular expression sends you across to one or another path... Check on examples for how to do it. For example a custom file server, with basic access permissions thought PAM (the standard Pluggable Permission Module used in almost all linux), is just 15 lines. We have also an awesome web unix terminal at Onion Terminal. It is actively developed and in use. Current code works perfectly on Intel processors (i386 and x86_64) and ARM processors. Other has not been tested but if there is a C compiler, high chances are that it will work. Use cases
Thanks to otemplate and opack it is possible to embed all your code in a single executable, and thanks to crl developing is as fast as possible. Current usersLibonion has an extensive example portfolio with many simple and complex examples, but it is also used on real life:
