3.5.2 Unit

(require web-server/web-server-unit)

web-server@ :  (unit/c (web-config^ tcp^)         (web-server^))

Uses the web-config^ to construct a dispatcher/c function that sets up one virtual host dispatcher, for each virtual host in the web-config^, that sequences the following operations:

• Logs the incoming request with the given format to the given file

• Performs HTTP Basic Authentication with the given password file

• Allows the "/conf/refresh-passwords" URL to refresh the password file.

• Allows the "/conf/collect-garbage" URL to call the garbage collector.

• Allows the "/conf/refresh-servlets" URL to refresh the servlets cache.

• Execute servlets in the mapping URLs to the given servlet root directory under htdocs.

• Serves files under the "/" URL in the given htdocs directory.

Using this dispatcher/c, it loads a dispatching server that provides serve and serve-ports functions that operate as expected.
