Title: SqHTTP: Socket-Based HTTP Server
Post by: stormeus on May 17, 2012, 02:07:48 am

Became extremely bored, wrote an HTTP server using Squirrel sockets over the course of two days. The server supports:

• HTTP requests
• Error handling (sending 500 Internal Server Errors on a script parsing exception)
  
• Query strings (in format of http://server/page/?param1=value1&param2=value2)
• All functions provided by VC:MP Squirrel
• Modules loaded by your scripts
• Writing dynamic pages and static pages from existing files

The purpose of the server is to provide a limited form of providing web services to scripters directly from their game servers, such as a stats panel and remote administration, and is not suitable for forums, transmitting files, and probably some other complex things I couldn't be arsed to script into the server. ::)

I don't anticipate this server script taking off any time in the near future, so I won't be providing much support for it, though it may prove to be useful for any projects I do in the future, and possibly for someone else as well.

Without the example pages provided, the server is 603 lines long.

Heads up, after copying this script verbatim, fixing function names, and testing it in LU, I found that the server will NOT WORK verbatim in LU.

Can you atleast give me the philosophy behind a squirrel socket to use it as a listener, because after all these years i forgot about this crap. ._.
