Features
📋
Complicated tasks made easy
Simplified exchange methods for:
- Parsing HTTP
GET/POSTwithmultipart/form-datasupport. - Output stream writing with
#send. - Sending gzip compressed responses.
- Sending files
SimpleHttpHandler handler = new SimpleHttpHandler(){
@Override
public void handle(SimpleHttpExchange exchange){
Map POST = exchange.getPostMap();
MultipartFormData form = exchange.getMultipartFormData();
Record record = form.getRecord("record");
FileRecord file = (FileRecord) form.getRecord("file");
exchange.send(new File("OK.png"), true);
}
};
⭐
Extended Features
Out of the box support for:
- HTTP Cookies
- HTTP Sessions
- Multithreaded Servers
SimpleHttpServer server = new SimpleHttpServer(8080);
server.setHttpSessionHandler(new HttpSessionHandler());
HttpHandler handler = new HttpHandler(){
@Override
public void handle(HttpExchange exchange){
HttpSession session = server.getHttpSession(exchange);
String session_id = session.getSessionID();
Map<String,String> cookies = exchange.getCookies();
exchange.close();
}
};
💻
Simplified Handlers
Easy to use handlers:
- Redirect Handler
- Predicate Handler
- File Handler
- Server-Sent-Events Handler
- Temporary Handler
- Throttled Handler
RedirectHandler redirect = new RedirectHandler("https://github.com/");
FileHandler fileHandler = new FileHandler();
fileHandler.addFile(new File("index.html"));
fileHandler.addDirectory(new File("/site"))
SSEHandler SSE = new SSEHandler();
SSE.push("Server sent events!");
ThrottledHandler throttled = new ThrottledHandler(new HttpHandler(), new ServerExchangeThrottler())
