42 Webserv

Webserv is a project from School 42 aiming to implement an HTTP server in C++ according to the specifications of the HTTP/1.1 protocol (see RFC2616).

Features

  • Handling of GET, POST, DELETE requests
  • Support for standard HTTP headers
  • Management of virtual servers
  • Support for persistent connections
  • Handling of static and dynamic files
  • Support for CGI (Common Gateway Interface)
  • Configuration management via configuration files

Usage

Local

make
./webserv -l1 -c resources/webserv.conf

Docker

make build_image
make run_container

Open the following link in your browser to access the demo site: http://localhost:4243.

In the local version, remember to modify the paths to the Python and Bash CGI binaries in the configuration file to avoid getting 500 errors.

Options

./webserv -h                                                                                                                                            1 ↵ tdameros@Mac-hine
