Server¶

HTTP/HTTPS server that accepts connections and dispatches requests through a compiled routing tree.

Created with a BuiltApplication (from Application.build()) and a ServerNotify for lifecycle events. Two constructors prevent accidentally serving HTTP when HTTPS is intended.

actor Main is hobby.ServerNotify
  let _env: Env

  new create(env: Env) =>
    _env = env
    let auth = lori.TCPListenAuth(env.root)
    let app = hobby.Application
      .> get("/", {(ctx) =>
        hobby.RequestHandler(consume ctx)
          .respond(stallion.StatusOK, "Hello!")
      } val)

    match app.build()
    | let built: hobby.BuiltApplication =>
      hobby.Server(auth, built, this
        where host = "0.0.0.0", port = "8080")
    | let err: hobby.ConfigError =>
      env.err.print(err.message)
    end

  be listening(server: hobby.Server,
    host: String, service: String)
  =>
    _env.out.print(
      "Listening on " + host + ":" + service)

Call dispose() to shut down. In-flight connections drain naturally.

actor tag Server is
  TCPListenerActor[RuntimeBackend ref] tag

Implements¶

TCPListenerActor[RuntimeBackend ref] tag

Constructors¶

create¶

[Source]

Start an HTTP server.

host and port control the listener bind address. config is passed through to Stallion for parser limits (max body size, idle timeout, etc.) — the host/port in config are not used for binding.

new tag create(
  auth: TCPListenAuth val,
  app: BuiltApplication val,
  notify: ServerNotify tag,
  host: String val = "localhost",
  port: String val = "0",
  handler_timeout: (HandlerTimeout | None val) = DefaultHandlerTimeout(),
  config: ServerConfig val = stallion.ServerConfig("localhost", "0"))
: Server tag^

Parameters¶

auth: TCPListenAuth val
app: BuiltApplication val
notify: ServerNotify tag
host: String val = "localhost"
port: String val = "0"
handler_timeout: (HandlerTimeout | None val) = DefaultHandlerTimeout()
config: ServerConfig val = stallion.ServerConfig("localhost", "0")

Returns¶

Server tag^

ssl¶

[Source]

Start an HTTPS server.

Identical to create except connections use TLS via the provided SSLContext. The context must be configured with a certificate and private key.

new tag ssl(
  auth: TCPListenAuth val,
  app: BuiltApplication val,
  notify: ServerNotify tag,
  ssl_ctx: SSLContext val,
  host: String val = "localhost",
  port: String val = "0",
  handler_timeout: (HandlerTimeout | None val) = DefaultHandlerTimeout(),
  config: ServerConfig val = stallion.ServerConfig("localhost", "0"))
: Server tag^

Parameters¶

auth: TCPListenAuth val
app: BuiltApplication val
notify: ServerNotify tag
ssl_ctx: SSLContext val
host: String val = "localhost"
port: String val = "0"
handler_timeout: (HandlerTimeout | None val) = DefaultHandlerTimeout()
config: ServerConfig val = stallion.ServerConfig("localhost", "0")

Returns¶

Server tag^

Public Behaviours¶

dispose¶

[Source]

Shut down the server. Closes the listener and disposes the shared timer actor. In-flight connections drain naturally. Idempotent.
