This library provides a parser for FastCGI records. The parser is implemented as a finite state machine (FSM) for use in streaming applications (i.e. data arrives at an unpredictable rate and the parser must be interruptible). As such, the parser itself does not buffer any received data. It just forwards it to registered callbacks. It requires little overhead and is well suited for being used in an object-oriented wrapper.
There is a pre-fork/spawn server implementing a FastCGI authorizer in the demo folder. It also comes with a minimal LigHTTPd configuration to test it against an existing FastCGI implementation known to work!
