<h3>Open Source Common Lisp Software</h3>
<h1>S-HTTP-SERVER</h1>
<h2>A Minimal Standalone Common Lisp HTTP Server</h2>
<p>
<a href="http://homepage.mac.com/svc/temaplte/index.html">S-HTTP-SERVER</a>
is a minimal standalone HTTP Server.
This simple package is used as a building block in a number of other open source projects,
as can be seen from this description of some
<a href="http://homepage.mac.com/svc/oscl.html">other Open Source Common Lisp packages</a>.

<h3 id="features">Features</h3>
<p>
S-HTTP-SERVER can:
</p>
<ul>
<li>handle HTTP requests and generate HTTP responses</li>
<li>be configured with plugins or handlers</li>
<li>has a builtin status handler</li>
<li>comes with a static resource handler, favicon handler and redirect handler</li>
<li>allows you to write and install your own handlers</li>
<li>support HTTPS on LispWorks</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="status">Status</h3>
<p>
S-HTTP-SERVER is considered stable code.
</p>
<h3 id="news">News</h3>
<ul>
<li><em>April 2006</em> - added HTTPS support, serveral handlers and optimalizations.</li>
<li><em>December 2005</em> - S-HTTP-SERVER was featured in my first
<a href="http://homepage.mac.com/svc/LispMovies/index.html">Lisp Movie: Episode 1: HTTP Client and Server</a>.
Jean-Franois Brouillet has written an excellent
<a href="http://lisp.jfb-city.co.uk/tutorials/svc/s-http-server.html">tutorial on using S-HTTP-SERVER</a>,
complete with screenshots and code examples.</li>
<li><em>November 2005</em> - Created as a new project.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="platforms">Platforms</h3>
<p>
S-HTTP-SERVER is written in ANSI standard Common Lisp and should be portable across any CL implementation.
</p>
<h3 id="downloading">Downloading</h3>
<p>
You can download the latested released tarball of the S-HTTP-SERVER package from
<a href="http://homepage.mac.com/svc/s-http-server/s-http-server.tar.gz">http://homepage.mac.com/svc/s-http-server/s-http-server.tar.gz</a>.

<h3 id="installation">Installation</h3>
<p>
The S-HTTP-SERVER package is loaded using <a href="http://www.cliki.net/asdf">ASDF</a>.
There is an excellent <a href="http://constantly.at/lisp/asdf/">tutorial on ASDF</a> to get you started.
Alternatively you can use <a href="http://www.cliki.net/asdf-install">ASDF-INSTALL</a>.
There is an great <a href="http://weitz.de/asdf-install/">tutorial on ASDF-INSTALL</a> to get you on the way.
</p>
<div class="listing">
<pre>CL-USER 1 > (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :s-http-server)</pre>
</div>
<div class="caption">Example of setting up and using ASDF to compile and load the package</div>
<h3 id="usage">Usage</h3>
<p>
Basically, you create an S-HTTP-SERVER object and start it.
Out of the box only the status/debug page
<a href="http://localhost:1701/s-http-server">http://localhost:1701/s-http-server</a> is served.
By registering new context handlers you can configure the server further.
The static-resource-handler hosts static documents from a root directory in the file system.
It is possible to write your own handlers, look at the code of static-resource-handler and s-http-server-handler
for guidance.
