This is a starting point for C++ solutions to the

["Build Your Own HTTP server" Challenge](https://app.codecrafters.io/courses/http-server/overview).

# http-server-cpp

This repo contains my C++ style implementation of a http server to parse the codecrafters

challenge. The focus is not to pass the tests with minimal effort, but to provide a solution

in the spirit of C++ (at least my understanding of it :wink:).

The features are:

- allows to easily specify endpoints for the server:

```cpp

server.add_endpoint("/", [](const auto &) -> std::string { return "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n\r\n"; });

```

- url patten matching: `/echo/{str}` will match `/echo/abc` and provide a mapping of `str`

  to `abc`, e.g.:

```cpp

 server.add_endpoint("/echo/{str}", [](const auto &matches) -> std::string {

     const std::string str = matches.at("str");

     return std::format("HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Type: text/plain\r\nContent-Length: {}\r\n\r\n{}", str.size(),

                        str);

 });

```
