A C library for handling requests from Mongrel2. Includes a suite of sample handlers to get you up and running.

The GNU automake build system.
You need to first translate the configure.ac to configure.
libtoolize -c || glibtoolize -c
autoreconf -fv --install
Great, now you have your build system. Now to build the Makefile.
./configure
make
sudo make install
This software was developed with valgrind in hand.
valgrind --leak-check=full --gen-suppressions=yes ./mongrel_handler
It throws a real shit fit about "Syscall param socketcall.sendto(msg) points to uninitialised byte(s)" and I have no idea how to work around it. It sounds harmless.

This (common) problem is caused by writing to a socket (or a file) bytes derived from a structure
which has alignment padding, which is uninitialised. That is harmless, but the problem is I don't
know of a general way to suppress these errors which doesn't also potentially hide real bugs when
you mistakenly write uninitialised data to a file/ socket. The best I can suggest is to do a
case-by-case suppression yourself (--gen-suppressions=yes is your friend).
From inside of lib run 'make test' to build all the handlers.
I use three terminal sessions:
cd deployment && ./config.sh && ./start.sh # Mongrel2 is up
cd handler && make test && ./null_handler
curl localhost:6767/dev/zero -v
The curl session should return a 204 No Content success code with no content whatsoever
I use three terminal sessions:
cd deployment && ./config.sh && ./start.sh # Mongrel2 is up
cd handler && make test && ./body_toupper_handler
curl localhost:6767/body_to_upper_handler -d "hello handler" -v
The curl session should spit back the data but capitalized.
Now we'll use four sessions
make handlers && ./fifo_reader_handler
curl http://localhost:6767/fifo_reader_handler
cd handler && cat Makefile > handler_pipe
You will see the Makefile in the curl session.
####Test the WebSocket support
cd deployment && ./config.sh && ./start.sh
make handlers && ./ws_handshake_handler tcp://127.0.0.1:7999 tcp://127.0.0.1:7998
# Use Chrome 14+ or Firefox 6+, go to http://localhost:6767/ws.html
Feel free to send me through github. Patches are welcome (and how!)! I'm also on mongrel2@librelist.com.
