# Ada-Web-Server

This is a simple web server designed to be used as a front end to embedded systems.

It should be able to run on small Linux based computers such as a BeagleBone Black

or Raspberry Pi.  Unless you are only interested in serving a few static pages,

the code will require modifications for your application.

## Customization

### Ada

The primary Ada files for customization are web_server.adb, internal.ads, and

internal.adb.  Depending on you application you may wish to add additional code

and/or tasks to perform data collection.  This will be all compiled together into

one monolithic executable.

The specific changes needed for the web server are:

#### web_server.adb

Update the decode_internal() procedure to call your internal code to generate web

pages.

#### internal.ads and internal.adb

Add routines here to generate your web pages and provide any other necessary data.

### Other

Some other files will also need to be updated for your application.

#### config.txt

This is a list of all the supported URLs that can be requested and what the server

should do for each one.  It is a simple text file with three space separated fields

on each line.  The first is the URL, the second is the file name or code to identify

an internal routine and the last is the MIME type for files or "internal" for

internal routines.

#### *.html

Create whatever HTML files that you need.

#### *.js

Create whatever JavaScript files that you need.

## Examples

There are some example HTML and JS files as well as example internal code.  You

should be able to build the existing code and have a functioning system.  It may

not do anything useful, but you should be able to look at the existing code and

see how to modify it for your application.
