# HTTP Server

This is a simple proof of concept of a HTTP server written in Go.

### How to run

1. Install Go

2. Clone this repository with `git clone https://github.com/Arpan-206/my-http-server.git`

3. Run `./your_server.sh --directory /tmp/` to start the server

### How to connect

There are many routes you can connect to. Here are some examples:

1. GET request to `http://localhost:4221/` will return a 200 status code without content.

2. GET request to `http://localhost:4221/echo/{some_text}` will return a 200 status code with the text you provided.

3. GET request to `http://localhost:4221/user_agent` will return a 200 status code with the user agent of the request.

4. GET request to `http://localhost:4221/files/{file_name}` will return a 200 status code with the content of the file you provided.

5. POST request to `http://localhost:4221/files/{file_name}` with a body will create a file with the content of the body and return a 200 status code.

### How to look around the code

To look around the code, you can open the `app/server.go` file. This is where the server is defined and the routes are set up. Rest of the files are just helper files.
