A web application is created in a few steps:
value application = Application(`package myapplication`);
Promise<Runtime> runtime = application.start();
runtime.always((Runtime|Exception arg) => print(arg is Runtime then "started" else "failed: ``arg.string``"));
process.readLine();
runtime.then_((Runtime runtime) => runtime.stop()).then_((Anything anyting) => print("stopped"));
Controllers are classes in your application that extends the Controller class. A controller handle a request with its handle method.
Controllers use the route annotation and are parameterized by String parameters, each parameter must be a shared parameter:
route "/"
shared class MyController(shared String color) extends Controller() { ... }
Controller urls can be easily constructed via the string method.
value url = MyController("red").string;
Request handling is implemented via the handle method:
shared class MyController() extends Controller() {
shared actual default Response handle() => ok().body("<html><body>Hello World</body></html>");
}
route("/")
shared class Index() {
shared actual default Response handle() => ok().body("<html><body>Hello World</body></html>");
}
shared object controllers {
route("/")
shared class Index() {
shared actual default Response handle() => ok().body("<html><body>Hello World</body></html>");
}
}
