HTTP Server over TCP/ICN

This is an implementation of a HTTP server able to serve client requests using both TCP and ICN as transport protocol.

This project is a fork from the http server implemented by Ole Christian Eidheim and open sourced at https://github.com/eidheim/Simple-Web-Server.

In the ICN flavour, so far, we support just the GET method. Later we'll be implementing the remaining methods as well.

Dependencies

For building the library, from the root folder of the project:

 $ mkdir build && cd build
 $ cmake ..
 $ make

For installing the application:

 $ cd build
 $ sudo make install

For starting the http-server, from the build folder:

 $ cd build
 $ ./http-server

The server now is: - serving files from the folder /var/www/html - Listening on the icn name /webserver - Listening on the TCP port 8080

For retrieving a content through icn, the name must have the following format:

The server accept two option through the command line:

 $ ./http-server -h
 http-server [-p PATH_TO_ROOT_FOOT_FOLDER] [-l WEBSERVER_PREFIX]

The default values are /vaw/www/html for the root folder and ccnx:/webserver for the icn name.

Libicnet has been tested in:

- Ubuntu 16.04 (x86_64)
- Debian Testing
- MacOSX 10.12
